1Naʻaku tangi kia Sihova ʻi heʻeku mamahi, pea naʻa ne ongoʻi au.
1In my distress I cried to the LORD, and He answered me.
2‌ʻE Sihova, fakahaofi hoku laumālie mei he loungutu loi, pea mei he ʻelelo kākā.
2Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips and a deceitful tongue.
3Ko e hā ʻe ʻatu kiate koe? He ko e hā ʻe fai kiate koe, ʻa koe ko e ʻelelo kākā?
3What will He do to you, and what will be added to you, O deceitful tongue?
4‌ʻAe ngaahi ngahau māsila ʻae tangata mālohi, mo e ngaahi malalaʻi afi ʻoe sunipa.
4Sharp arrows will come from the warrior, with burning coals of the broom tree!
5‌ʻOku ou malaʻia, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku ʻāunofo ʻi Meseki, koeʻuhi ko ʻeku nofo ʻi he ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻo Keta!
5Woe to me that I dwell in Meshech, that I live among the tents of Kedar!
6Kuo nofo ʻo fuoloa ʻa hoku laumālie fakataha mo ia ʻoku ne fehiʻa ki he melino.
6Too long have I dwelt among those who hate peace.
7‌ʻOku ou loto ki he melino: ka ʻi heʻeku lea ʻoku nau fie tau.
7I am in favor of peace; but when I speak, they want war.
