Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Ke ke ʻaloʻofa kiate au, ʻE ʻOtua, ke ke ʻaloʻofa kiate au: he ʻoku falala hoku laumālie kiate koe: ʻio, pea te u hūfanga ʻi he malu ʻo ho kapakau, ke ʻoua ke mole ʻo ngata ʻae ngaahi kovi ni.
1Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.
2Te u tangi ki he ʻOtua fungani māʻolunga, ki he ʻOtua ʻoku fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē maʻaku.
2I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.
3Pea te ne fekau mei he langi, ʻo fakamoʻui au, mei he lauʻikovi ʻo ia ʻoku ne fie folo au ke ʻosi. Sila. ʻE fekau atu ʻe he ʻOtua ʻene ʻaloʻofa mo ʻene moʻoni.
3He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.
4ʻOku ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fanga laione hoku laumālie: pea ʻoku ou tokoto mo kinautolu kuo vela, ʻio, ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe tangata, ko honau nifo ko e ngaahi tao mo e ngahau, pea ko honau ʻelelo ko e heletā māsila.
4My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
5ʻE ʻOtua, ke māʻolunga lahi hake koe ʻi he ngaahi langi; tuku ke māʻolunga hake ho nāunau ʻi māmani kotoa pē.
5Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.
6Kuo nau teuteu ʻae kupenga ki hoku tuʻunga vaʻe; kuo mapelu ki lalo hoku laumālie: naʻa nau keli ʻae luo ʻi hoku ʻao, pea kuo tō ki ai ʻakinautolu. Sila.
6They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves . Selah.
7ʻOku maʻu hoku loto, ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoku maʻu hoku loto: te u hiva mo ʻatu ʻae fakamālō.
7My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.
8Ke ʻā hake, ʻa hoku nāunau; ʻā hake, ʻae saliteli mo e haʻape: te u ʻā hengihengi hake pe au.
8Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
9ʻE ʻEiki, te u fakamālō kiate koe ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai: te u hiva kiate koe ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga.
9I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations.
10He ʻoku lahi hoʻo ʻaloʻofa ʻo aʻu ki he ngaahi langi, mo hoʻo moʻoni ki he ngaahi ʻao.
10For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
11ʻE ʻOtua, ke māʻolunga lahi hake koe ʻi he ngaahi langi: tuku ke māʻolunga hake ho nāunau ʻi māmani kotoa pē.
11Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.
