World English Bible
1Fanongo ki hoku leʻo, ʻE ʻOtua, ʻi heʻeku lotu: fakahaofi ʻeku moʻui mei he manavahē ki he fili.
1Hear my voice, God, in my complaint. Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
2Fakafufū au mei he filioʻi ʻae kau angahala; mei he angatuʻu fakamaveuveu ʻoe kau fai kovi:
2Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the noisy crowd of the ones doing evil;
3ʻOku nau fakamata honau ʻelelo ʻo hangē ko e heletā, ʻonau teke ʻenau kaufana ke fanaʻi ʻenau ngaahi ngahau, ʻio, ko e ngaahi lea kona.
3who sharpen their tongue like a sword, and aim their arrows, deadly words,
4Koeʻuhi ke nau fana ʻi he lilo ki he haohaoa: ʻoku nau fana fakafokifā pe kiate ia, ʻo taʻemanavahē.
4to shoot innocent men from ambushes. They shoot at him suddenly and fearlessly.
5ʻOku nau fetokoniʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻi he meʻa kovi: ʻoku nau fakakaukau ke tau ʻae ngaahi tauhele ʻi he lilo; ʻoku nau pehē, “Ko hai te ne mamata kiate kimautolu?”
5They encourage themselves in evil plans. They talk about laying snares secretly. They say, “Who will see them?”
6ʻOku nau kumi ke ʻilo ʻae ngaahi kovi ʻoku nau faʻa ʻeke ke lahi: ʻoku taumamaʻo ʻae mahalo mo e loto ʻokinautolu kotoa pē.
6They plot injustice, saying, “We have made a perfect plan!” Surely man’s mind and heart are cunning.
7Ka ʻe fana ʻe he ʻOtua kiate kinautolu ʻaki ʻae ngahau; te nau lavea fakafokifā pe.
7But God will shoot at them. They will be suddenly struck down with an arrow.
8Ko ia tenau ngaohi honau ʻelelo ke tō kiate kinautolu: ʻe hola ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku mamata kiate kinautolu.
8Their own tongues shall ruin them. All who see them will shake their heads.
9Pea ʻe manavahē ʻae tangata kotoa pē, ʻonau fakahā ʻae ngāue ʻae ʻOtua; he tenau fakakaukau poto ki heʻene ngāue.
9All mankind shall be afraid. They shall declare the work of God, and shall wisely ponder what he has done.
10ʻE fiefia ʻae māʻoniʻoni ʻi he ʻEiki, pea falala kiate ia; pea vikiviki ai ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku angatonu ʻi loto.
10The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall take refuge in him. All the upright in heart shall praise him!
