Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
King James Version with Apocrypha
1ʻE Sihova, ʻoua naʻa ke valokiʻi au ʻi ho houhau: pea ʻoua naʻa ke valokiʻi au ʻi ho houhau vela.
1O LORD , rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
2He ʻoku tau maʻu ʻiate au hoʻo ngaahi ngahau, pea ʻoku taʻomia fakamamahi au ʻe ho nima.
2For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore.
3ʻOku ʻikai ha haohaoa ʻi hoku kakano ko e meʻa ʻi ho houhau; pea ʻoku ʻikai ha fiemālie ʻi hoku hui ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku angahala.
3There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.
4He kuo hake ʻa ʻeku ngaahi hia ʻo ʻufiʻufi hoku ʻulu: ʻo hangē ko e kavenga mamafa ʻoku taʻomia ai au.
4For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me.
5ʻOku ʻeho hoku ngaahi lavea ʻo fakalielia koeʻuhi ko ʻeku vale.
5My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness.
6ʻOku ou mamahi; ʻoku ou mapelu ki lalo ʻaupito; ʻoku ou ʻalu mamahi pe ʻi he ʻaho kotoa.
6I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.
7He ʻoku fonu hoku sino ʻi he mahaki kovi: pea ʻoku ʻikai ha moʻui haohaoa ʻi hoku kakano.
7For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh.
8ʻOku ou vaivai mo mafesi ʻi he mamahi: naʻaku kalanga ko e meʻa ʻi he mamahi ʻo hoku loto.
8I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart.
9ʻE ʻEiki, ʻoku ʻi ho ʻao ʻeku holi kotoa pē; mo ʻeku ngaahi toʻe ʻoku ʻikai fufū ʻiate koe.
9Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee.
10ʻOku tatupe hoku mafu, kuo ʻosi ʻeku mālohi: pea ko e maama ʻo hoku mata kuo mole foki ia ʻiate au.
10My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me.
11Ko hoku kaumeʻa ʻofa mo hoku ngaahi kāinga ʻoku nau tutuʻu ʻi he mamaʻo mei hoku teʻia; mo hoku kaungāʻapi ʻoku nau tutuʻu ʻi he mamaʻo.
11My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.
12Ko kinautolu foki ʻoku kumi ki heʻeku moʻui ʻoku nau tō ʻae ngaahi tauhele kiate au: ko kinautolu ʻoku kumi ke u kovi ʻoku nau lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa kovi, mo nau fakakaukau ki he meʻa kākā ʻi he ʻaho kotoa.
12They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.
13Ka ko au, hangē ko ha tuli, ʻoku ʻikai te u ongoʻi; pea naʻaku hangē ko e tangata ʻoku noa ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai mafaʻa hono ngutu.
13But I, as a deaf man , heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth.
14Pea naʻaku hangē ko e tangata taʻeongoʻi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha valoki ʻi hono ngutu.
14Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs.
15He ʻoku ou ʻamanaki lelei, ʻE Sihova, kiate koe: te ke ongoʻi, ʻE ʻEiki ko hoku ʻOtua.
15For in thee, O LORD , do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God.
16He naʻaku pehē, “Fanongo kiate au, telia naʻa nau fiefia kiate au: ʻi he hekea ʻa hoku vaʻe, ʻoku nau hiki hake ʻakinautolu kiate au.”
16For I said, Hear me , lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me.
17He ʻoku ou meimei nofo, pea ʻoku tuʻumaʻu pe ʻeku mamahi ʻi hoku ʻao.
17For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me.
18He te u fakahā ʻeku hia; pea u mamahi koeʻuhi ko ʻeku angahala.
18For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
19Ka ʻoku moʻui hoku ngaahi fili, pea ʻoku nau mālohi: pea ʻoku fakaʻaʻau ʻo tokolahi ʻakinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa taʻetotonu kiate au.
19But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
20Pea ko hoku ngaahi fili foki ʻakinautolu ʻoku totongi kovi ki he lelei; koeʻuhi ʻoku ou muimui ki he lelei.
20They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is .
21ʻOua naʻa ke liʻaki au, ʻE Sihova: ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa ke mamaʻo ʻiate au.
21Forsake me not, O LORD : O my God, be not far from me.
22Ke ke fakatoʻotoʻo ke tokoni au, ʻE ʻEiki ko hoku fakamoʻui.
22Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
