World English Bible
1Fiefia ʻia Sihova, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku māʻoniʻoni: he ʻoku taau mo e angatonu ʻae fakafetaʻi.
1Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous! Praise is fitting for the upright.
2Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ʻaki ʻae haʻape: hiva kiate ia ʻaki ʻae saliteli ʻoku filo ʻe hongofulu.
2Give thanks to the LORD with the lyre. Sing praises to him with the harp of ten strings.
3Hiva kiate ia ʻi he hiva foʻou; tā ke mālie mo leʻo lahi.
3Sing to him a new song. Play skillfully with a shout of joy!
4He ko e folofola ʻa Sihova ʻoku totonu; pea ʻoku fai ʻene ngaahi ngāue kotoa pē ʻi he moʻoni.
4For the LORD’s word is right. All his work is done in faithfulness.
5ʻOku ʻofa ia ki he māʻoniʻoni mo e fakamaau: ʻoku fonu ʻa māmani ʻi he ʻaloʻofa ʻa Sihova.
5He loves righteousness and justice. The earth is full of the loving kindness of the LORD.
6Naʻe ngaohi ʻe he folofola ʻa Sihova ʻae ngaahi langi; mo honau nāunau kotoa pē ʻe he mānava ʻo hono fofonga.
6By the LORD’s word, the heavens were made: all their army by the breath of his mouth.
7ʻOku ne tānaki fakataha ʻae vai ʻoe tahi ʻo hangē ko e tafungofunga: ʻoku ne faʻoaki ʻae moana ʻi he ngaahi feleoko.
7He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap. He lays up the deeps in storehouses.
8Ke manavahē ʻa māmani kotoa pē kia Sihova: ke maluʻia ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo māmani kiate ia.
8Let all the earth fear the LORD. Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9He naʻe folofola ia, pea hoko leva; naʻa ne fekau, pea tuʻumaʻu ia.
9For he spoke, and it was done. He commanded, and it stood firm.
10ʻOku ikuʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae fakakaukau ʻae hiteni: ʻoku ne fakataʻeʻaongaʻi ʻae ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ʻae kakai.
10The LORD brings the counsel of the nations to nothing. He makes the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.
11Ko e akonaki ʻa Sihova ʻoku tuʻumaʻu ʻo taʻengata, mo e ngaahi mahalo ʻo hono finangalo ki he toʻutangata kotoa pē.
11The counsel of the LORD stands fast forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12ʻOku monūʻia ʻae puleʻanga ko ia ʻoku ʻOtua ʻaki ʻa Sihova; pea mo e kakai kuo ne fili ko e tofiʻa ʻoʻona.
12Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance.
13ʻOku ʻafio ʻa Sihova mei he langi; ʻoku ne vakai ki he ngaahi foha ʻoe tangata.
13The LORD looks from heaven. He sees all the sons of men.
14Mei he potu ʻo hono ʻafioʻanga ʻoku ne ʻafioʻi ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo māmani.
14From the place of his habitation he looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth,
15ʻOku ne ngaohi honau loto kotoa pē; ʻoku ne tokanga ki heʻenau ngāue kotoa pē.
15he who fashions all of their hearts; and he considers all of their works.
16ʻOku ʻikai ha tuʻi ʻoku moʻui ʻi he fuʻu tokolahi ʻoe kautau: pea ʻoku ʻikai haohaofaki ʻae tangata mālohi ʻe he mālohi lahi.
16There is no king saved by the multitude of an army. A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
17Ko e meʻa vaʻinga ʻae hoosi ki he fakamoʻui: pea ʻe ʻikai te ne fakamoʻui ha tokotaha ʻi heʻene mālohi lahi.
17A horse is a vain thing for safety, neither does he deliver any by his great power.
18Vakai, ko e fofonga ʻo Sihova ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku manavahē kiate ia, ʻio, kiate kinautolu ʻoku manavahē lelei ki heʻene ʻaloʻofa;
18Behold, the LORD’s eye is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his loving kindness,
19Ke fakahaofi honau laumālie mei he mate, pea ke fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu ʻi he honge.
19to deliver their soul from death, to keep them alive in famine.
20ʻOku tatali hotau laumālie kia Sihova: ko hotau tokoni ia mo hotau fakaū.
20Our soul has waited for the LORD. He is our help and our shield.
21Koeʻuhi ʻe fiefia hotau loto ʻiate ia, he ʻoku tau falala ki hono huafa māʻoniʻoni.
21For our heart rejoices in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
22ʻE Sihova, ke ʻiate kimautolu ʻa hoʻo ʻaloʻofa, ʻo hangē ko ʻemau ʻamanaki lelei kiate koe.
22Let your loving kindness be on us, LORD, since we have hoped in you.
