91They stand this day according to Thine ordinances; for all things are Thy servants.
92Ka ne ʻikai ko hoku fiefiaʻanga ʻa hoʻo fono, pehē, ne u mate ʻi hoku mahaki.

106Kuo u fuakava, pea te u fai ki ai, ke u fai ki hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau māʻoniʻoni.
106I have sworn, and have confirmed it, to observe Thy righteous ordinances.
107ʻOku lahi ʻaupito hoku mahaki: fakamoʻui au, ʻE Sihova, ʻo hangē ko hoʻo folofola.
107I am afflicted very much; quicken me, O LORD, according unto Thy word.

112I have inclined my heart to perform Thy statutes, for ever, at every step.
113ʻOku ou fehiʻa ki he ngaahi mahalo kovi: ka ʻoku ou ʻofa ki hoʻo fono.
113SAMECH. I hate them that are of a double mind; but Thy law do I love.
114Ko koe ko hoku toitoiʻanga, mo hoku fakaū; ʻoku ou ʻamanaki lelei ʻi hoʻo folofola.
114Thou art my covert and my shield; in Thy word do I hope.
115ʻAlu ʻiate au, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku fai kovi: he te u fai ki he ngaahi fekau ʻa hoku ʻOtua.
115Depart from me, ye evildoers; that I may keep the commandments of my God.
116Poupou hake au ʻo hangē ko hoʻo folofola, koeʻuhi ke u moʻui ai. Pea ʻoua naʻa tuku au ke u mā ʻi heʻeku ʻamanaki.

120ʻOku tetetete hoku kakano ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku manavahē kiate koe; pea ʻoku ou manavahē ki hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau. OINI
120My flesh shuddereth for fear of Thee; and I am afraid of Thy judgments.
121Kuo u fai ʻae fakamaau mo e angatonu: ʻoua naʻa tukuange au ki he kau fakamālohi kiate au.
121AIN. I have done justice and righteousness; leave me not to mine oppressors.
122Ke ke hoko ko e ungakiʻi ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ke u lelei ai; ʻoua naʻa tuku ke taʻomia au ʻe he fielahi.
122Be surety for Thy servant for good; let not the proud oppress me.
123ʻOku vaivai hoku mata koeʻuhi ko hoʻo fakamoʻui, pea mo e folofola ʻo hoʻo māʻoniʻoni.
123Mine eyes fail for Thy salvation, and for Thy righteous word.
124Fai ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻo hangē ko hoʻo ʻaloʻofa, pea ke ako kiate au ʻa hoʻo ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni.
124Deal with Thy servant according unto Thy mercy, and teach me Thy statutes.
125Ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki au; foaki mai ʻae poto, koeʻuhi ke u ʻilo ai hoʻo ngaahi fakamoʻoni.
125I am Thy servant, give me understanding, that I may know Thy testimonies.
126ʻE Sihova, kuo hoko ʻae kuonga ke ke ngāue ai: he kuo nau fakataʻeʻaongaʻi hoʻo fono.
126It is time for the LORD to work; they have made void Thy law.
127Ko ia ʻoku ou ʻofa lahi hake ki hoʻo ngaahi fekau ʻi he koula; ʻio, ʻi he koula lelei.
127Therefore I love Thy commandments above gold, yea, above fine gold.
128Ko ia ʻoku ou pehē ʻoku totonu hoʻo ngaahi akonaki kotoa pē; pea ʻoku ou fehiʻa ki he hala kotoa pē ʻoe loi. PE
128Therefore I esteem all Thy precepts concerning all things to be right; every false way I hate.
129ʻOku fakamanavahē hoʻo ngaahi fakamoʻoni: ko ia ʻoku fai ki ai ʻa hoku laumālie.
129PE. Thy testimonies are wonderful; therefore doth my soul keep them.
130Ko e hū loto ʻa hoʻo ngaahi folofola ʻoku foaki ai ʻae maama; ʻoku ʻomi ʻe ia ʻae poto ki he taʻekākā.
130The opening of Thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.
131Ne u mafaʻa hoku ngutu, pea u holi he ʻoku ou feinga ki hoʻo ngaahi fekau.
131I opened wide my mouth, and panted; for I longed for Thy commandments.
132Ke ke ʻafio mai kiate au, mo ke ʻaloʻofa kiate au, ʻo hangē ko hoʻo faʻa fai kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻofa ki ho huafa.
132Turn Thee towards me, and be gracious unto me, as is Thy wont to do unto those that love Thy name.
133Tuʻutuʻuni ʻeku ngaahi laka ʻi hoʻo folofola: pea ʻoua naʻa tuku ke pule kiate au ha hia ʻe taha.
133Order my footsteps by Thy word; and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
134Fakamoʻui au mei he fakamālohi ʻae tangata: pea te u fai ki hoʻo ngaahi akonaki.
134Redeem me from the oppression of man, and I will observe Thy precepts.
135Tuku ke ulo mai ho fofonga ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki; pea ke ako kiate au hoʻo ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni.
135Make Thy face to shine upon Thy servant; and teach me Thy statutes.
136ʻOku tafe hifo ʻae ngaahi vaitafe ʻi hoku mata, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai tenau tokanga ki hoʻo fono. SATI
136Mine eyes run down with rivers of water, because they observe not Thy law.
137ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ke angatonu, pea ʻoku totonu hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau.
137TZADE. Righteous art Thou, O LORD, and upright are Thy judgments.
138ʻOku māʻoniʻoni pea ʻoku tuʻumaʻu ʻaupito hoʻo ngaahi fakamoʻoni, ʻaia kuo ke fekau mai.
138Thou hast commanded Thy testimonies in righteousness and exceeding faithfulness.
139Kuo u ʻosiʻosiloto ʻi heʻeku fai feinga, koeʻuhi kuo ngalo ʻi hoku ngaahi fili hoʻo ngaahi folofola.
139My zeal hath undone me, because mine adversaries have forgotten Thy words.
140ʻOku haohaoa ʻaupito hoʻo folofola: ko ia ʻoku ʻofa ki ai ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.
140Thy word is tried to the uttermost, and Thy servant loveth it.
141ʻOku ou siʻi au mo manukia: ka ʻoku ʻikai ngalo ʻiate au hoʻo ngaahi akonaki.
141I am small and despised; yet have I not forgotten Thy precepts.
142Ko hoʻo māʻoniʻoni ko e māʻoniʻoni taʻengata, pea ko hoʻo fono ko e moʻoni ia.
142Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and Thy law is the truth.
143Kuo pukea au ʻe he mamahi mo e feinga: ka ko hoʻo ngaahi fekau ko hoku fiefiaʻanga ia.
143Trouble and anguish have overtaken me; yet Thy commandments are my delight.
144ʻOku taʻengata ʻae māʻoniʻoni ʻo hoʻo ngaahi fakamoʻoni: ke ke foaki mai ʻae poto, pea te u moʻui ai. KOFI
144Thy testimonies are righteous for ever; give me understanding, and I shall live.
145Naʻaku tangi ʻaki hoku loto kotoa; ke ke ongoʻi au, ʻE Sihova: te u fai ki hoʻo ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni.
145KOPH. I have called with my whole heart; answer me, O LORD; I will keep Thy statutes.
146Ne u tangi kiate koe; fakamoʻui au, koeʻuhi ke u fai ki hoʻo ngaahi fakamoʻoni.
146I have called Thee, save me, and I will observe Thy testimonies.
147Naʻaku muʻomuʻa ʻi he maʻa ʻae ʻaho, pea u tangi: ne u ʻamanaki ʻi hoʻo folofola.
147I rose early at dawn, and cried; I hoped in Thy word.
148ʻOku muʻomuʻa ʻa hoku mata ki he ngaahi leʻo ʻoe pō, koeʻuhi ke u fakakaukau ki hoʻo folofola.
148Mine eyes forestalled the night-watches, that I might meditate in Thy word.
149Ke ke fanongo ki hoku leʻo ʻo hangē ko hoʻo ʻaloʻofa: ʻE Sihova, fakamoʻui au ʻo hangē ko hoʻo fakamaau.
149Hear my voice according unto Thy lovingkindness; quicken me, O LORD, as Thou art wont.
150ʻOku ʻunuʻunu mai ʻakinautolu ʻoku nau angimui ki he kovi: ʻoku nau mamaʻo mei hoʻo fono.
150They draw nigh that follow after wickedness; they are far from Thy law.
151ʻOku ke ofi mai, ʻE Sihova; pea ʻoku moʻoni hoʻo ngaahi fekau kotoa pē.
151Thou art nigh, O LORD; and all Thy commandments are truth.
152Koeʻuhi ko hoʻo ngaahi fakamoʻoni, kuo fuoloa ʻeku ʻilo kuo ke fakamaau ia ʻo lauikuonga. LESA
152Of old have I known from Thy testimonies that Thou hast founded them for ever.
153Ke ke tokanga ki hoku mahaki, pea ke fakamoʻui au: he ʻoku ʻikai ngalo ʻiate au hoʻo fono.
153RESH. O see mine affliction, and rescue me; for I do not forget Thy law.
154Ke ke fakamatala ʻeku meʻa, mo fakahaofi au: fakamoʻui au ʻo hangē ko hoʻo folofola.
154Plead Thou my cause, and redeem me; quicken me according to Thy word.
155ʻOku mamaʻo ʻae fakamoʻui mei he angahala: he ʻoku ʻikai tenau kumi ki hoʻo ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni.
155Salvation is far from the wicked; for they seek not Thy statutes.
156ʻOku lahi hoʻo ngaahi ʻaloʻofa ongongofua, ʻE Sihova: fakamoʻui au ʻo hangē ko hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau.
156Great are Thy compassions, O LORD; quicken me as Thou art wont.
157ʻOku tokolahi hoku kau fakatanga mo hoku ngaahi fili; ka ʻoku ʻikai te u afe mei hoʻo ngaahi fakamoʻoni.
157Many are my persecutors and mine adversaries; yet have I not turned aside from Thy testimonies.
158Naʻaku mamata ki he kau talangataʻa, pea u mamahi ai; koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai tenau fai ki hoʻo folofola.
158I beheld them that were faithless, and strove with them; because they observed not Thy word.
159Ke ke ʻafio ki hono anga ʻo ʻeku ʻofa ki hoʻo ngaahi akonaki: fakamoʻui au, ʻE Sihova, ʻo hangē ko hoʻo ʻaloʻofa.
159O see how I love Thy precepts; quicken me, O LORD, according to Thy lovingkindness.
160ʻOku moʻoni hoʻo folofola mei hono kamataʻanga: pea ʻoku tolonga ʻo taʻengata hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē. SINI.
160The beginning of Thy word is truth; and all Thy righteous ordinance endureth for ever.
161Kuo fakatanga au taʻehanoʻuhinga ʻe he ngaahi ʻeiki: ka ʻoku fakaʻapaʻapa ʻa hoku loto ki hoʻo folofola.
161SCHIN. Princes have persecuted me without a cause; but my heart standeth in awe of Thy words.
162ʻOku ou fiefia ʻi hoʻo folofola, ʻo hangē ko e taha ʻoku ne ʻilo ʻae koloa lahi.
162I rejoice at Thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.
163ʻOku ou fehiʻa mo fākaliliʻa ki he loi: ka ʻoku ou ʻofa ki hoʻo fono.
163I hate and abhor falsehood; Thy law do I love.
164ʻOku ou fakamālō kiate koe ʻo liunga fitu ʻi he ʻaho, koeʻuhi ko hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau māʻoniʻoni.
164Seven times a day do I praise Thee, because of Thy righteous ordinances.
165ʻOku maʻu ʻae fiemālie lahi ʻekinautolu ʻoku ʻofa ki hoʻo fono: pea ʻe ʻikai tūkia ʻakinautolu ʻi ha meʻa.
165Great peace have they that love Thy law; and there is no stumbling for them.
166ʻE Sihova, kuo u ʻamanaki ki hoʻo fakamoʻui, pea kuo u fai ki hoʻo ngaahi fekau.
166I have hoped for Thy salvation, O LORD, and have done Thy commandments.
167Kuo tauhi ʻe hoku laumālie ʻa hoʻo ngaahi fakamoʻoni; pea ʻoku ou ʻofa lahi ʻaupito ki ai.

168I have observed Thy precepts and Thy testimonies; for all my ways are before Thee.
169ʻE Sihova, tuku ke aʻu atu ʻeku tangi ʻo ofi kiate koe: ke ke foaki mai ʻae poto ʻo hangē ko hoʻo folofola.
169TAV. Let my cry come near before Thee, O LORD; give me understanding according to Thy word.

172Let my tongue sing of Thy word; for all Thy commandments are righteousness.
173Ke tokoni au ʻe ho nima; he kuo u fili hoʻo ngaahi akonaki.
173Let Thy hand be ready to help me; for I have chosen Thy precepts.
174ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ou holi ki hoʻo fakamoʻui; pea ko hoʻo fono ko hoku fiefiaʻanga ia.
174I have longed for Thy salvation, O LORD; and Thy law is my delight.
175Tuku ke moʻui ʻa hoku laumālie, pea ʻe fakamālō ia kiate koe; pea ke tokoni au ʻe hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau.
175Let my soul live, and it shall praise Thee; and let Thine ordinances help me.
176Naʻaku hē ʻo hangē ko e sipi kuo mole; ke ke kumi hoʻo tamaioʻeiki; he ʻoku ʻikai ngalo ʻiate au hoʻo ngaahi fekau.
176I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek Thy servant; for I have not forgotten Thy commandments.
