World English Bible
1Ko e hā ʻoku matalili ai ʻae hiteni? Pea fakalaulauloto ʻae kakai ki he meʻa noa pē?
1Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot a vain thing?
2ʻOku tuʻu hake fakataha ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani, pea fakakaukau fakataha ʻae kau pule kia Sihova mo ia kuo ne pani, ʻo pehē,
2The kings of the earth take a stand, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his Anointed, saying,
3“Ke tau motuhi ʻena ngaahi haʻi pea liʻaki ʻena ngaahi afo ʻiate kitautolu.”
3“Let’s break their bonds apart, and cast their cords from us.”
4Ko ia ʻoku nofo ʻi he ngaahi langi ʻe kata ia: ʻe manuki ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu.
4He who sits in the heavens will laugh. The Lord will have them in derision.
5Pea te ne toki folofola kiate kinautolu ʻi hono houhau, pea fakamamahiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi hono tuputāmaki lahi.
5Then he will speak to them in his anger, and terrify them in his wrath:
6Ka kuo u fakanofo ʻeku tuʻi ki Saione, ko e moʻunga ʻo ʻeku māʻoniʻoni.
6“Yet I have set my King on my holy hill of Zion.”
7“Te u fakahā ʻae tuʻutuʻuni:” naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “Ko hoku ʻAlo koe kuo u fakatupu koe ʻi he ʻaho ni.
7I will tell of the decree: The LORD said to me, “You are my son. Today I have become your father.
8Ke ke lea kiate au, pea te u foaki ʻae ngaahi hiteni ko ho tofiʻa, mo e ngaahi ngataʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani moʻou.
8Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance, the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession.
9Te ke maumauʻi ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae vaʻa ukamea; pea te ke laiki ke lailai ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e ipu ʻumea.
9You shall break them with a rod of iron. You shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”
10Pea ko eni, ke poto ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi tuʻi: pea maʻu ʻae akonaki ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau fakamaau ʻo māmani.
10Now therefore be wise, you kings. Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
11Tauhi ʻa Sihova ʻi he manavahē, pea fiefia ʻi he tetetete.
11Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
12ʻUma ki he ʻAlo, telia naʻa houhau ia, pea te mou ʻauha mei he hala, ʻoka tupu siʻi pe hono houhau. ʻOku monūʻia ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku falala kiate ia.
12Give sincere homage to the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish on the way, for his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all those who take refuge in him.
