1Fakafanongo ʻae Tauhi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻa koe ʻoku ke tataki ʻa Siosefa ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipi; ʻa koe ʻoku ke ʻafio ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe selupimi, ke ke ulo mai.

3(80-4) O God, restore us; and cause Thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
3ʻE ʻOtua, ke ke toe fakatafoki ʻakimautolu, pea tuku ke ulo mai ho fofonga; pea te mau moʻui ai.
4(80-5) O LORD God of hosts, how long wilt Thou be angry against the prayer of Thy people?

5(80-6) Thou hast fed them with the bread of tears, and given them tears to drink in large measure.

6(80-7) Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours; and our enemies mock as they please.

8(80-9) Thou didst pluck up a vine out of Egypt; Thou didst drive out the nations, and didst plant it.
8Naʻa ke lī kituʻa ʻae hiteni; ka naʻa ke ʻomi ʻae vaine mei ʻIsipite, ʻo tō ia.
9(80-10) Thou didst clear a place before it, and it took deep root, and filled the land.
9Naʻa ke fakaʻataʻatā ʻae potu ʻi hono ʻao, pea naʻa ke fakaaka māʻulalo ia, pea naʻa ne fakapito ʻae fonua.
10(80-11) The mountains were covered with the shadow of it, and the mighty cedars with the boughs thereof.
10Naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻae ngaahi moʻunga ʻi hono malumalu, pea ko hono ngaahi vaʻa naʻe hangē ko e ngaahi sita ʻae ʻOtua.
11(80-12) She sent out her branches unto the sea, and her shoots unto the River.
11Naʻa ne tuku atu hono ngaahi vaʻa ki he tahi, mo hono ngaahi ʻuluʻulu ki he vaitafe.
12(80-13) Why hast Thou broken down her fences, so that all they that pass by the way do pluck her?
12Ko e hā kuo ke hae hifo ai hono ngaahi ʻā, ke toli ia ʻekinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu atu ʻi he hala?
13(80-14) The boar out of the wood doth ravage it, that which moveth in the field feedeth on it.

14(80-15) O God of hosts, return, we beseech Thee; look from heaven, and behold, and be mindful of this vine,
14ʻE ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻoku mau kole kiate koe ke ke foki mai: ʻafio hifo mei he langi, ʻo vakai, mo ʻaʻahi ki he vaine ni;
15(80-16) And of the stock which Thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that Thou madest strong for Thyself.
15Mo e ngoue vaine ʻaia kuo tō ʻe ho nima toʻomataʻu, mo e vaʻa ʻaia naʻa ke ngaohi ke mālohi maʻau.
16(80-17) It is burned with fire, it is cut down; they perish at the rebuke of Thy countenance.
16Kuo tutu ia ʻaki ʻae afi, kuo tā hifo ia: kuo nau ʻauha ʻi he tautea ʻe ho fofonga.
17(80-18) Let Thy hand be upon the man of Thy right hand, upon the son of man whom Thou madest strong for Thyself.
17Tuku ke hili ho nima ki he tangata ʻo ho nima toʻomataʻu, ki he foha ʻoe tangata ʻaia naʻa ke fakamālohi maʻau.
18(80-19) So shall we not turn back from Thee; quicken Thou us, and we will call upon Thy name.
18Pea ʻe ʻikai ai te mau foki kimui meiate koe: ke ke fakaakeake ʻakimautolu, pea temau ui ki ho huafa.
19(80-20) O LORD God of hosts, restore us; cause Thy face to shine, and we shall be saved.
