Tongan Bible, Revised West VersionTranslation
Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
King James Version with Apocrypha
1ʻE ʻOtua, ke ke fakamaau au, ʻo langomakiʻi au telia ʻae puleʻanga angakovi: ke ke fakamoʻui au mei he tangata kākā mo taʻeangatonu.
1Judge me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: O deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man.
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 thou art the God of my strength: why dost thou cast me off? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?
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.
3O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
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 will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, 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 art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
