1Kuo folofola ʻa Sihova, ko e ʻOtua Māfimafi, ʻo ui ki māmani ki he potu hopoʻanga ʻoe laʻā ʻo aʻu atu ki hono tōʻanga.
1Unto the end, a psalm of David,
2Mei Saione, ko e fungani ʻoe matamatalelei haohaoa, kuo ulo ʻae ʻOtua.
2When Nathan the prophet came to him after he had sinned with Bethsabee.
3ʻE hāʻele mai hotau ʻOtua, pea ʻe ʻikai fakalongo pē: ʻe fakaʻauha ʻe he afi ʻi hono ʻao, pea ʻe takatakai ia ʻe he afā lahi.
3Have mercy on me, O God, according to thy great mercy. And according to the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my iniquity.
4Te ne ui ki he ngaahi langi mei ʻolunga, pea ki māmani, koeʻuhi ke ne fakamaau hono kakai.
4Wash me yet more from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
5“Tānaki fakataha kiate au ʻeku kakai māʻoniʻoni; ʻakinautolu kuo fai ʻae fuakava mo au ʻi he feilaulau.”
5For I know my iniquity, and my sin is always before me.
6Pea ʻe fakahā ʻe he ngaahi langi ʻene māʻoniʻoni: he ko e ʻOtua pē ko e fakamaau. Sila.
6To thee only have I sinned, and have done evil before thee: that thou mayst be justified in thy words and mayst overcome when thou art judged.
7“Fanongo mai, ʻE hoku kakai, pea te u lea; pea te u fakapapau kiate koe, ʻE ʻIsileli: ko au ko e ʻOtua, ʻio, ko ho ʻOtua.
7For behold I was conceived in iniquities; and in sins did my mother conceive me.
8ʻE ʻikai te u valokiʻi koe koeʻuhi ko hoʻo ngaahi feilaulau, pe ko hoʻo ngaahi feilaulau tutu, ke fai maʻu pe ʻi hoku ʻao.
8For behold thou hast loved truth: the uncertain and hidden things of thy wisdom thou hast made manifest to me.
9ʻE ʻikai te u toʻo ha pulu mei ho fale, pe ha kosi tangata mei ho ngaahi lotoʻā.
9Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed: thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow.
10He ʻoku ʻaʻaku ʻae manu kotoa pē ʻoe vao, mo e fanga manu ʻi he moʻunga ʻe afe.
10To my hearing thou shalt give joy and gladness: and the bones that have been humbled shall rejoice.
11ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻae manupuna kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga: pea ʻoku ʻaʻaku ʻae ngaahi manu kaivao kotoa pē ʻoe ngoue.
11Turn away thy face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities.
12“Kapau te u fiekaia, ʻe ʻikai te u tala kiate koe: he ʻoku ʻaʻaku ʻa māmani, mo hono mahu ʻo ia.
12Create a clean heart in me, O God: and renew a right spirit within my bowels.
13He te u kai ʻeau ʻae kakano ʻoe fanga pulu tangata, pe inu ʻae toto ʻoe fanga kosi?
13Cast me not away from thy face; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
14ʻAtu ʻae fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua; mo ke fai hoʻo ngaahi fuakava ki he Fungani Māʻolunga:
14Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, and strengthen me with a perfect spirit.
15Pea ke ui kiate au ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe mamahi: te u fakamoʻui koe, pea te ke fakaongoongoleleiʻi au.”
15I will teach the unjust thy ways: and the wicked shall be converted to thee.
16Ka ʻoku pehē ʻe he ʻOtua ki he angakovi, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke kau ai koe ke tala ʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea ke ʻai ʻi ho ngutu ʻeku fuakava?
16Deliver me from blood, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall extol thy justice.
17He ʻoku ke fehiʻa ki he akonaki, mo ke liʻaki ʻeku ngaahi lea ki ho tuʻa.
17O Lord, thou wilt open my lips: and my mouth shall declare thy praise.
18ʻI hoʻo mamata ki ha kaihaʻa, naʻa ke loto leva kiate ia, pea naʻa ke kau mo e kau tono fefine.
18For if thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would indeed have given it: with burnt offerings thou wilt not be delighted.
19“ʻOku ke tuku ho ngutu ki he kovi, pea ʻoku fakatupu ʻe ho ʻelelo ʻae kākā.
19A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: a contrite and humbled heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
20ʻOku ke nofo ʻo lauʻikoviʻi ho tokoua; ʻoku ke fakakoviʻi ʻae tama ʻa hoʻo faʻē ʻaʻau.
20Deal favourably, O Lord, in thy good will with Sion; that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.
21Naʻa ke fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, pea ne u fakalongo pē; naʻa ke mahalo ʻoku ou hangē tofu pe ko koe: ka te u valokiʻi koe, ʻo fokotuʻu ia ʻi ho ʻao.
21Then shalt thou accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations and whole burnt offerings: then shall they lay calves upon thy altar.
22Ko eni, mou tokanga ki he meʻa ni, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku fakangalongaloʻi ʻae ʻOtua, telia naʻaku haehae ke fakaikiiki ʻakimoutolu, pea ʻe ʻikai ha taha ke fakamoʻui.
