Psalms 79
King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1O God, the heathen are come into thine inheritance; thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.
1ʻE ʻOtua, kuo hoko ʻae hiteni ki ho tofiʻa; kuo nau fakaʻuliʻi ho faletapu māʻoniʻoni; kuo nau fakalala ʻa Selūsalema ke tafungofunga ia.
2The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.
2Kuo nau ʻange ʻae sino mate ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ko e meʻakai ki he manupuna ʻoe langi, mo e kakano ʻo hoʻo kakai māʻoniʻoni ki he fanga manu ʻoe fonua.
3Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem; and there was none to bury them .
3Kuo nau lilingi honau toto ʻo hangē ko e vai ʻo takatakai ʻi Selūsalema; pea naʻe ʻikai ha niʻihi ke tanu ʻakinautolu.
4We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.
4Kuo mau hoko ko e manukiʻanga ʻo homau ngaahi kaungāʻapi, ko e meʻa manuki mo e taukaeʻanga ʻokinautolu ʻoku nofo takatakai ʻiate kimautolu.
5How long, LORD ? wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn like fire?
5ʻE Sihova, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa? Te ke houhau ʻo taʻengata? pea vela ho fuaʻa ʻo hangē ko e afi?
6Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known thee, and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.
6Ke ke lilingi ho houhau ki he hiteni ʻoku teʻeki ai ʻilo koe, pea mo e ngaahi puleʻanga ʻoku teʻeki ai ui ki ho huafa.
7For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place.
7He kuo nau kai ʻo ʻosi ʻa Sēkope, ʻo maumauʻi ke lala hono nofoʻanga.
8O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low.
8ʻoua naʻa ke fakamanatu kiate kimautolu ʻemau ngaahi muʻaki hia: tuku ke tokoni vave ʻakimautolu ʻe hoʻo ʻaloʻofa ongongofua: he kuo ʻohifo ki lalo ʻaupito ʻakimautolu.
9Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy name: and deliver us, and purge away our sins, for thy name’s sake.
9ʻE ʻOtua ko homau fakamoʻui, ke ke tokoni ʻakimautolu, koeʻuhi ko e ongoongolelei ʻo ho huafa: pea fakahaofi ʻakimautolu, ʻo fakamaʻa ke ʻosi ʻemau ngaahi angahala, koeʻuhi ko ho huafa.
10Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is their God? let him be known among the heathen in our sight by the revenging of the blood of thy servants which is shed.
10Koeʻumaʻā ʻae lea pehē mai ʻe he hiteni, “Ko e fē honau ʻOtua?” Tuku ke ʻilo ia ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe hiteni ʻi homau ʻao ʻi he totongi ʻoe toto ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻaia kuo huaʻi.
11Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die;
11Tuku ke aʻu ki ho ʻao ʻae ngaahi mafulu ʻae kau nofo pōpula; ke ke fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu kuo tuʻutuʻuni ke mate ʻo fakatatau mo hono lahi ʻo hoʻo māfimafi.
12And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.
12ʻE ʻEiki, ke ke ʻange ke liunga fitu ki he fatafata ʻo homau kaungāʻapi ʻenau lauʻikovi, ʻaia naʻa nau lauʻikoviʻi ʻaki koe.
13So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for ever: we will shew forth thy praise to all generations.
13Pea ko kimautolu ko ho kakai mo e fanga sipi ʻo hoʻo ngoue, temau ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi kiate koe ʻo taʻengata: temau fakahā atu ho ongoongolelei ki he toʻutangata kotoa pē.
