JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1Mou fakamālō kia Sihova. Fakamālō kia Sihova, ʻE hoku laumālie.
1Hallelujah. Praise the LORD, O my soul.
2Te u fakamālō kia Sihova ʻi heʻeku kei moʻui: te u hiva fakamālō ki hoku ʻOtua ʻi he lolotonga ʻo ʻeku moʻui.
2I will praise the LORD while I live; I will sing praises unto my God while I have my being.
3ʻOua naʻa mou falala ki he ngaahi ʻeiki, pe ki he foha ʻoe tangata, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ha fakamoʻui ʻiate ia.
3Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.
4ʻOku mole atu ʻene mānava, pea ʻoku foki ia ki he kelekele; ʻoku mole ai ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻene ngaahi mahalo.
4His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his dust; in that very day his thoughts perish.
5ʻOku monūʻia ia ʻaia ʻoku ne maʻu ʻae ʻOtua ʻo Sēkope ko hono tokoni, pea ko ʻene ʻamanaki lelei ʻoku ʻia Sihova ko hono ʻOtua:
5Happy is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God,
6ʻAia naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae langi, mo māmani, ʻae tahi mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai: pea ʻoku ne tauhi ʻae moʻoni ʻo lauikuonga:
6Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is; who keepeth truth for ever;
7ʻAia ʻoku ne fai ʻae fakamaau koeʻuhi ko e kakai fakamālohia: ʻoku ne foaki ʻae meʻakai ki he fiekaia. ʻOku vete ʻe Sihova ʻae kau pōpula:
7Who executeth justice for the oppressed; who giveth bread to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners;
8ʻOku fakaʻā ʻe Sihova ʻae kui: ʻoku fokotuʻu ʻe Sihova ʻakinautolu kuo mapelu ki lalo: ʻoku ʻofa ʻa Sihova ki he angatonu:
8The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind; the LORD raiseth up them that are bowed down; the LORD loveth the righteous;
9ʻOku fakamoʻui ʻe Sihova ʻae kakai muli; ʻoku ne fakafiemālieʻi ʻae tamai mate mo e fefine kuo mate hono husepāniti: ka ko e hala ʻoe angahala ʻoku ne fulihi ia.
9The LORD preserveth the strangers; He upholdeth the fatherless and the widow; but the way of the wicked He maketh crooked.
10ʻE pule ʻa Sihova ʻo taʻengata, ʻio, ko ho ʻOtua, ʻE Saione, ʻi he ngaahi toʻutangata kotoa pē. Mou fakamālō kia Sihova.
10The LORD will reign for ever, Thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Hallelujah.
