Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1ʻI he ʻalu atu ʻa ʻIsileli mei ʻIsipite, ko e fale ʻo Sēkope mei he kakai ʻoe lea kehe;
1I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer.
2Ko hono faletapu ʻa Siuta, mo hono puleʻanga ʻa ʻIsileli.
2Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him.
3Naʻe mamata ki ai ʻae tahi, pea hola ai: naʻe tekeʻi atu ʻo fakaholomui ʻa Sioatani.
3The sorrows of death have encompassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow:
4Naʻe hopohopo ʻae ngaahi moʻunga ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipitangata, mo e ngaahi foʻi moʻunga ʻo hangē ko e fanga lami.
4And I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul.
5Ko e hā naʻe hoko kiate koe, ʻa koe ko e tahi, koeʻuhi naʻa ke hola ai? ʻA koe Sioatani, koeʻuhi ke tekeʻi atu ʻo fakaholomui koe?
5The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy.
6ʻAe ngaahi moʻunga, koeʻuhi naʻa mou hopohopo ai ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipitangata; mo kimoutolu ʻae ngaahi foʻi moʻunga, ʻo hangē ko e fanga lami?
6The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was little and he delivered me.
7ʻA koe ko māmani, ke ke tetetete ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻEiki, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo Sēkope;
7Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee.
8ʻAia naʻa ne liliu ʻae maka ko e anovai, mo e maka afi ko e matavai.
8For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling.
