Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Naʻaku tangi kia Sihova ʻi heʻeku mamahi, pea naʻa ne ongoʻi au.
1In my distress I cried unto the LORD , and he heard me.
2ʻE Sihova, fakahaofi hoku laumālie mei he loungutu loi, pea mei he ʻelelo kākā.
2Deliver my soul, O LORD , from lying lips, and from 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 shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?
4ʻAe ngaahi ngahau māsila ʻae tangata mālohi, mo e ngaahi malalaʻi afi ʻoe sunipa.
4Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.
5ʻOku ou malaʻia, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku ʻāunofo ʻi Meseki, koeʻuhi ko ʻeku nofo ʻi he ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻo Keta!
5Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!
6Kuo nofo ʻo fuoloa ʻa hoku laumālie fakataha mo ia ʻoku ne fehiʻa ki he melino.
6My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.
7ʻOku ou loto ki he melino: ka ʻi heʻeku lea ʻoku nau fie tau.
7I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.
