Berean Standard Bible
1ʻE ʻOtua, ke ke fakamaau au, ʻo langomakiʻi au telia ʻae puleʻanga angakovi: ke ke fakamoʻui au mei he tangata kākā mo taʻeangatonu.
1Vindicate me, O God, and plead my case against an ungodly nation; deliver me from deceitful and unjust men.
2He ko koe ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku mālohi: ko e hā ʻoku ke liʻaki ai au? Ko e hā ʻoku ou ʻalu mamahi pe ʻi he taʻomia ʻe he fili?
2For You are the God of my refuge. Why have You rejected me? Why must I walk in sorrow because of the enemy’s oppression?
3Ke ke fekau atu hoʻo maama mo hoʻo moʻoni: tuku ke na tataki au; tuku ke na ʻomi au ki ho moʻunga māʻoniʻoni, mo ho ngaahi fale fehikitaki.
3Send out Your light and Your truth; let them lead me. Let them bring me to Your holy mountain, and to the place where You dwell.
4Ko ia te u toki ʻalu atu ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, ki he ʻOtua ko hoku fiefiaʻanga lahi ʻaupito: ʻio, ʻi he haʻape te u fakamālō kiate koe, ʻE ʻOtua ko hoku ʻOtua.
4Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my greatest joy. I will praise You with the harp, O God, my God.
5Ko e hā ʻoku ke mapelu ai ki lalo, ʻE hoku laumālie? pea ko e hā ʻoku ke maveuveu ai ʻi loto ʻiate au? ʻAmanaki lelei ki he ʻOtua: he ko e moʻoni te u fakafetaʻi kiate ia, ʻaia ko e fakamoʻui ʻo hoku mata, mo hoku ʻOtua.
5Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why the unease within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him, my Savior and my God.
