Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Naʻaku fiefia ʻi heʻenau pehē mai kiate au, “Ke tau ō ki he fale ʻo Sihova.”
1To thee have I lifted up my eyes, who dwellest in heaven.
2ʻE tuʻu homau vaʻe ki lotoʻā ʻi ho ngaahi matapā, ʻE Selūsalema.
2Behold as the eyes of the servants are on the hands of their masters, As the eyes of the handmaid are on the hands of her mistress: so are our eyes unto the Lord our God, until he have mercy on us.
3Kuo langa ʻa Selūsalema ʻo hangē ko e kolo ʻoku māʻopoʻopo:
3Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us: for we are greatly filled with contempt.
4ʻAia ʻoku ʻalu hake ki ai ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga, ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo Sihova, ki he fakamoʻoni ʻa ʻIsileli, ke ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi ki he huafa ʻo Sihova.
4For our soul is greatly filled: we are a reproach to the rich, and contempt to the proud.
5He ʻoku fokotuʻu ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi nofoʻa ʻoe fakamaau, ko e ngaahi nofoʻa ʻoe fale ʻo Tevita.
