World English Bible
1Te u hiva ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻaloʻofa ʻa Sihova ʻo taʻengata: te u fakaʻilo ʻaki hoku ngutu ʻa hoʻo moʻoni ki he toʻutangata kotoa pē.
1I will sing of the loving kindness of the LORD forever. With my mouth, I will make known your faithfulness to all generations.
2He naʻaku pehē, “ʻE fokotuʻumaʻu pē ʻa e ʻaloʻofa ʻo taʻengata: ko hoʻo moʻoni te ke fakatuʻumaʻu ʻi he ngaahi langi.”
2I indeed declare, “Love stands firm forever. You established the heavens. Your faithfulness is in them.”
3Kuo u fai ʻae fuakava mo ʻeku fili, kuo u fuakava ki heʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita.
3“I have made a covenant with my chosen one, I have sworn to David, my servant,
4“Te u fakatuʻumaʻu ho hako ʻo taʻengata, te u fokotuʻu ho puleʻanga ki he toʻutangata kotoa pē.” Sila.
4‘I will establish your offspring forever, and build up your throne to all generations.’” Selah.
5Pea ʻe fakamālō ʻe he ngaahi langi ki hoʻo ngaahi ngāue fakaofo, ʻE Sihova: mo hoʻo moʻoni foki ʻi he fakataha ʻoe kau māʻoniʻoni.
5The heavens will praise your wonders, LORD, your faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.
6He ko hai ʻi he langi ʻe fakatatau ia kia Sihova? Ko hai ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻoe mālohi ʻe faʻa fakatatau kia Sihova?
6For who in the skies can be compared to the LORD? Who among the sons of the heavenly beings is like the LORD,
7ʻOku totonu ke manavahē lahi ki he ʻOtua ʻi he fakataha ʻoe kau māʻoniʻoni, pea ke fakaʻapaʻapa ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku tuʻu takatakai kiate ia.
7a very awesome God in the council of the holy ones, to be feared above all those who are around him?
8ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko hai ʻoku tatau mo koe ko Sihova māfimafi? Pea ko hoʻo moʻoni ʻoku kāpui koe.
8LORD, God of Armies, who is a mighty one, like you? LORD, your faithfulness is around you.
9ʻOku ke puleʻi ʻae ngaue mālohi ʻoe tahi: ʻoka hou hono ngaahi peau, ʻoku ke fakatofukī ia.
9You rule the pride of the sea. When its waves rise up, you calm them.
10Kuo ke fesiʻi ʻa Lehapi ke lailai, ʻo hangē ha taha kuo tāmateʻi; kuo fakahēʻi ho ngaahi fili ʻaki ho nima mālohi.
10You have broken Rahab in pieces, like one of the slain. You have scattered your enemies with your mighty arm.
11ʻOku ʻoʻou ʻae ngaahi langi, pea ʻoku ʻoʻou foki mo e fonua: ko māmani mo hono fonu ʻo ia kuo ke fakatuʻumaʻu ia.
11The heavens are yours. The earth also is yours, the world and its fullness. You have founded them.
12Kuo ke ngaohi ʻae potu tokelau mo e potu tonga: ko Tepoa mo Heamoni ʻe fiefia ʻi ho huafa.
12You have created the north and the south. Tabor and Hermon rejoice in your name.
13ʻOku ʻiate koe ʻae nima māfimafi ʻoku mālohi ho nima, pea māʻolunga ho nima toʻomataʻu.
13You have a mighty arm. Your hand is strong, and your right hand is exalted.
14Ko e angatonu mo e fakamaau ko e tuʻunga ia ʻo ho ʻafioʻanga: ʻe muʻomuʻa ʻi ho ʻao ʻae ʻaloʻofa mo e moʻoni.
14Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne. Loving kindness and truth go before your face.
15ʻOku monūʻia ʻae kakai ʻoku nau ʻiloʻi ʻae ongoongo fakafiefia: tenau ʻaʻeva, ʻE Sihova, ʻi he maama ʻo ho fofonga.
15Blessed are the people who learn to acclaim you. They walk in the light of your presence, LORD.
16Te nau fiefia ʻi ho huafa ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē: pea ʻi hoʻo māʻoniʻoni ʻe hakeakiʻi ai ʻakinautolu.
16In your name they rejoice all day. In your righteousness, they are exalted.
17He ko koe ko e vikivikiʻanga ʻo honau mālohi: pea ʻi hoʻo ʻofa ʻe hiki ai ki ʻolunga honau nifo.
17For you are the glory of their strength. In your favor, our horn will be exalted.
18He ko homau hūfanga ʻa Sihova; pea ko e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli ko homau tuʻi.
18For our shield belongs to the LORD, our king to the Holy One of Israel.
19Pea naʻa ke toki folofola ʻi he meʻa ha mai ki hoʻo tokotaha māʻoniʻoni, ʻo pehē, “Kuo u hilifaki ʻae tokoni ki ha tokotaha ʻoku mālohi; kuo u fakahikihiki ʻae tokotaha kuo fili mei he kakai.
19Then you spoke in vision to your saints, and said, “I have given strength to the warrior. I have exalted a young man from the people.
20Kuo u ʻiloʻi ʻa Tevita ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki; pea kuo u tākai ʻaki ia ʻa ʻeku lolo māʻoniʻoni:
20I have found David, my servant. I have anointed him with my holy oil,
21ʻE tuʻumaʻu hoku nima mo ia: ko hoku nima foki ʻe fakamālohiʻi ia.
21with whom my hand shall be established. My arm will also strengthen him.
22ʻE ʻikai fai fakamālohi kiate ia ʻe he fili; pe fakamamahiʻi ia ʻe he foha ʻoe angakovi.
22No enemy will tax him. No wicked man will oppress him.
23Pea te u taaʻi hifo hono ngaahi fili ʻi hono ʻao, pea tautea ʻakinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate ia.
23I will beat down his adversaries before him, and strike those who hate him.
24Ka ʻe ʻiate ia ʻa ʻeku moʻoni mo ʻeku ʻaloʻofa: pea ʻi hoku huafa ʻe hiki ki ʻolunga ai ʻa hono nifo.
24But my faithfulness and my loving kindness will be with him. In my name, his horn will be exalted.
25Te u ʻai foki hono nima ki he tahi, mo hono nima toʻomataʻu ki he ngaahi vaitafe.
25I will set his hand also on the sea, and his right hand on the rivers.
26ʻE tangi ia kiate au, ‘Ko koe ko ʻeku Tamai, ko hoku ʻOtua, mo e maka ʻo hoku fakamoʻui.’
26He will call to me, ‘You are my Father, my God, and the rock of my salvation!’
27Pea te u ngaohi foki ia ko hoku ʻuluaki foha, ʻe māʻolunga lahi ia ʻi he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani.
27I will also appoint him my firstborn, the highest of the kings of the earth.
28Te u tuku ʻeku ʻaloʻofa maʻana ʻo taʻengata, pea ʻe tuʻumaʻu ʻeku fuakava mo ia.
28I will keep my loving kindness for him forever more. My covenant will stand firm with him.
29Te u ngaohi foki hono hako kenau tolonga ʻo taʻengata, mo hono nofoʻa ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe langi.
29I will also make his offspring endure forever, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30“Kapau ʻe liʻaki ʻeku akonaki ʻe heʻene fānau, ʻo ʻikai ʻaʻeva ʻi heʻeku ngaahi fakamaau;
30If his children forsake my law, and don’t walk in my ordinances;
31Kapau tenau maumauʻi ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, pea ʻikai tauhi ʻeku ngaahi fekau;
31if they break my statutes, and don’t keep my commandments;
32Pea te u toki ʻaʻahi ʻenau ngaahi talangataʻa ʻaki ʻae meʻa kini, mo ʻenau hia ʻaki ʻae ngaahi tā.
32then I will punish their sin with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
33Ka ʻe ʻikai te u hiki ʻaupito ʻeku manavaʻofa ʻiate ia, pe tuku taʻehoko ʻa ʻeku moʻoni.
33But I will not completely take my loving kindness from him, nor allow my faithfulness to fail.
34ʻE ʻikai te u liʻaki ʻeku fuakava, pe fakakehe ʻae meʻa kuo ʻalu atu ʻi hoku loungutu.
34I will not break my covenant, nor alter what my lips have uttered.
35“Kuo u fuakava tuʻo taha ʻi heʻeku māʻoniʻoni ʻe ʻikai te u loi kia Tevita.
35Once I have sworn by my holiness, I will not lie to David.
36ʻE tolonga ʻene fānau ʻo taʻengata, mo hono nofoʻa ʻo hangē ko e laʻā ʻi hoku ʻao.
36His offspring will endure forever, his throne like the sun before me.
37ʻE fakatuʻumaʻu ia ke taʻengata ʻo hangē ko e māhina, pea hangē ko e fakamoʻoni ʻi he langi.” Sila.
37It will be established forever like the moon, the faithful witness in the sky.” Selah.
38Ka kuo liʻaki mo fākaliliʻa, mo ke houhau kiate ia naʻa ke pani.
38But you have rejected and spurned. You have been angry with your anointed.
39Kuo ke fakataʻeʻaongaʻi ʻae fuakava ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki: kuo ke fakakoviʻi hono tatā ʻi hoʻo lī ia ki he kelekele.
39You have renounced the covenant of your servant. You have defiled his crown in the dust.
40Kuo ke maumauʻi hifo hono ngaahi ʻā kotoa pē; kuo ke fakaʻauha hono ngaahi potu mālohi.
40You have broken down all his hedges. You have brought his strongholds to ruin.
41Ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ʻi he hala ʻoku nau kaihaʻa ʻiate ia: ko e manukiʻanga ia ʻo hono ngaahi kaungāʻapi.
41All who pass by the way rob him. He has become a reproach to his neighbors.
42Kuo ke hiki hake ʻae nima toʻomataʻu ʻo hono ngaahi fili; kuo ke fakafiefiaʻi ʻa hono ngaahi fili kotoa pē.
42You have exalted the right hand of his adversaries. You have made all of his enemies rejoice.
43Kuo ke liliu foki ʻae mata ʻo ʻene heletā, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke ngaohi ia ke tuʻu ʻi he tau.
43Yes, you turn back the edge of his sword, and haven’t supported him in battle.
44Kuo ke fakaʻosi hono nāunau, pea lī hono nofoʻa ki he kelekele.
44You have ended his splendor, and thrown his throne down to the ground.
45Kuo ke fakafuonounou ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻene talavou: kuo ke ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae mā. Sila.
45You have shortened the days of his youth. You have covered him with shame. Selah.
46ʻE Sihova, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa? Te ke fakafufū koe ʻo taʻengata? ʻE vela ho houhau ʻo hangē ko e afi?
46How long, LORD? Will you hide yourself forever? Will your wrath burn like fire?
47Manatu ki hono fuonounou ʻo ʻeku moʻui: ko e hā kuo ke ngaohi ʻae kakai kotoa pē ke taʻeʻaonga?
47Remember how short my time is, for what vanity you have created all the children of men!
48Ko hai ʻae tangata ko ia ʻoku moʻui, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne mamata ki he mate? ʻE fakamoʻui ʻe ia ʻa hono laumālie mei he nima ʻoe faʻitoka? Sila.
48What man is he who shall live and not see death, who shall deliver his soul from the power of Sheol? Selah.
49ʻE ʻEiki, ko e fē hoʻo ngaahi ʻaloʻofa ʻi muʻa, ʻaia naʻa ke fuakava ʻaki kia Tevita ʻi hoʻo moʻoni?
49Lord, where are your former loving kindnesses, which you swore to David in your faithfulness?
50Manatu, ʻE ʻEiki, ki he manukiʻi ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki; mo ʻeku fua ʻi hoku fatafata ʻae manuki ʻae kakai mālohi kotoa pē;
50Remember, Lord, the reproach of your servants, how I bear in my heart the taunts of all the mighty peoples,
51ʻAia kuo manuki ʻaki ʻe ho ngaahi fili, ʻE Sihova; ʻaia kuo nau manuki ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻaluʻanga ʻo ia kuo ke pani.
51With which your enemies have mocked, LORD, with which they have mocked the footsteps of your anointed one.
52Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ʻo taʻengata. ʻEmeni, mo ʻEmeni.
52Blessed be the LORD forever more. Amen, and Amen.
