Saame 83

Tongan Bible, Revised West Version

King James Version with Apocrypha

1‌ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa ke fakalongo pē: ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa ke taʻeʻafioʻi, pea ʻoua naʻa ke nofo pē.

1Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.

2Vakai, ʻoku fakatupu maveuveu ʻe ho ngaahi fili: pea ko kinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate koe kuo nau hiki hake honau ʻulu.

2For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.

3Naʻa nau alea fakalilolilo ki hoʻo kakai, pea nau fakakaukau fakataha ki he kakai ʻoku ke maluʻi.

3They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.

4Naʻa nau pehē, “Haʻu, ketau fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ke ʻoua naʻa toe ui ʻakinautolu ko e puleʻanga; ke ʻoua naʻa kei manatu ki he hingoa ʻo ʻIsileli.”

4They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.

5He kuo nau fakakaukau ʻi he loto taha: ʻoku nau fuakava ʻo angatuʻu kiate koe:

5For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:

6Ko e ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻo ʻItomi, mo e kau ʻIsimeʻeli; ʻa Moape, mo e hako ʻo Hekaʻā;

6The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;

7‌ʻA Kepale, mo ʻAmoni, mo ʻAmaleki, ko e kau Filisitia mo e kakai ʻo Taia;

7Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;

8‌ʻOku fakataha mo kinautolu foki ʻa ʻAsilia: kuo nau tokoni ki he fānau ʻa Lote. Sila.

8Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.

9Fai kiate kinautolu ʻo hangē ko hoʻo fai ki he kau Mitiani; ʻo hangē ko Sisela, mo Sapini, ʻi he vaitafe ʻo Kisoni:

9Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:

10‌ʻAia naʻe ʻauha ʻi Enitoa: naʻa nau hoko ʻo hangē ko e kinohaʻa ki he kelekele.

10Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.

11Ngaohi honau ngaahi ʻeiki ke hangē ko Olipi, pea tatau mo Siipi: ʻio, ʻa ʻenau houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻo hangē ko Sipaa, mo Salimuna.

11Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:

12‌ʻAia naʻa nau pehē, “Ketau maʻu ʻae ngaahi fale ʻoe ʻOtua moʻotautolu.”

12Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.

13‌ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ke ke ngaohi ʻakinautolu ke hangē ko e teka; ke hangē ko e veve ʻoku vilingia ʻi he matangi.

13O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.

14‌ʻO hangē ko e vela ʻoe vao ʻakau ʻi he afi, pea hangē kuo tutu ʻae ngaahi moʻunga ʻe he ulo afi.

14As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;

15Ke fakatanga pehē ʻakinautolu ʻaki hoʻo fuʻu taufa, pea fakamanavahēʻi ʻakinautolu ʻaki hoʻo afā.

15So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.

16‌ʻE Sihova, fakafonu honau mata ʻi he mā; koeʻuhi kenau kumi ki ho huafa.

16Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD .

17Tuku kenau puputuʻu mo mamahi ʻo taʻengata; ʻio, tuku ke mā mo ʻauha ʻakinautolu.

17Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:

18Koeʻuhi ke ʻilo ʻe he kakai ko koe, ko ho huafa ʻoʻou ko Sihova, ko e Fungani Māʻolunga ʻi māmani kotoa pē.

18That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH , art the most high over all the earth.
