1ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻaʻau ʻae totongi; ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻaʻau ʻae totongi: ke ke ulo mai.
1LORD, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom vengeance belongs, shine out.
2Ke ke hiki hake koe, ʻa koe ko e fakamaau ʻo māmani; ʻange ʻae totongi ki he laukau.
2Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they deserve.
3ʻE Sihova, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa ʻoe fielahi ʻae angahala, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa ʻoe polepole ʻae angahala?
3LORD, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph?
4ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa ʻo ʻenau fakahā mo lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa faingataʻa? Pea vikiviki ai ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoku fai kovi?
4They pour out arrogant words. All the evildoers boast.
5ʻE Sihova, ʻoku nau fesiʻi ʻo lailaiki ho kakai, mo fakamamahiʻi ho tofiʻa.
5They break your people in pieces, LORD, and afflict your heritage.
6ʻOku nau tāmateʻi ʻae muli mo e fefine kuo mate hono husepāniti, pea fakapoongi ʻae tamai mate.
6They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless.
7Ka ʻoku nau pehē, “ʻE ʻikai ʻafioʻi ʻe Sihova, ʻe ʻikai tokanga ki ai ʻe he ʻOtua ʻo Sēkope.”
7They say, “The LORD will not see, neither will Jacob’s God consider.”
8Mou ʻilo ʻekimoutolu ʻoku anga fakamanu ʻi he kakai: pea ko kimoutolu ʻae kau vale, te mou poto ʻafē?
8Consider, you senseless among the people; you fools, when will you be wise?
9Ko ia naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae telinga, ʻikai te ne fanongo? Ko ia naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae mata, ʻikai te ne ʻafioʻi?
9He who implanted the ear, won’t he hear? He who formed the eye, won’t he see?
10Ko ia ʻoku ne tautea ʻae hiteni, ʻikai te ne tautea? Ko ia ʻoku ne akonakiʻi ʻae tangata ke poto, ʻikai te ne ʻiloʻi?
10He who disciplines the nations, won’t he punish? He who teaches man knows.
11ʻOku ʻiloʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae ngaahi mahalo ʻae tangata, ʻoku nau vaʻinga pē.
11The LORD knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile.
12ʻE Sihova, ʻoku monūʻia ʻae tangata ʻoku ke tautea, mo ke ako kiate ia ʻaki hoʻo fono;
12Blessed is the man whom you discipline, LORD, and teach out of your law,
13Koeʻuhi te ke foaki kiate ia ʻae mālōlō mei he ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe mamahi, kaeʻoua ke keli ʻae luo ki he kau angahala.
13that you may give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit is dug for the wicked.
14Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai liʻaki ʻe Sihova hono kakai, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne fakatukutukuʻi hono tofiʻa.
14For the LORD won’t reject his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
15Ka ʻe foki ʻae fakamaau ki he māʻoniʻoni: pea ʻe angimui ki ai ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku angatonu ʻi loto.
15For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in heart shall follow it.
16Ko hai ʻe tuʻu hake maʻaku ʻo taʻofi ʻae kau fai kovi? Pe ko hai ʻe tuʻu hake maʻaku ʻo taʻofi ʻakinautolu ʻoku ngāue ʻi he angahala?
16Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up for me against the evildoers?
17Ka ne ʻikai tokoni au ʻe Sihova, pehē, kuo vave ʻae nofo ʻa hoku laumālie ʻi he fakalongo pē.
17Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul would have soon lived in silence.
18ʻI heʻeku pehē, “ʻOku hekea hoku vaʻe;” ko hoʻo ʻaloʻofa, ʻE Sihova, naʻe poupou hake au.
18When I said, “My foot is slipping!” Your loving kindness, LORD, held me up.
19ʻI hono lahi ʻo ʻeku ngaahi mahalo ʻiate au, ʻoku fakafiefiaʻi au ʻi hoʻo ngaahi meʻa fakafiemālie.
19In the multitude of my thoughts within me, your comforts delight my soul.
20ʻE feohi koā mo koe ʻae nofoʻa ʻoe angahala, ʻaia ʻoku fakatupu ʻae pauʻu ʻaki ʻae fono?
20Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, which brings about mischief by statute?
21ʻOku nau fakataha ʻo angatuʻu ki he laumālie ʻoe angatonu, mo fakahalaia ʻae toto tonuhia.
21They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
22Ka ko hoku ungakiʻi ʻa Sihova pea ko hoku ʻOtua ko e maka ia ʻo hoku hūfanga.
22But the LORD has been my high tower, my God, the rock of my refuge.
23Pea ʻe ʻomi ʻe ia kiate kinautolu ʻa ʻenau hia, pea te ne fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻi heʻenau angahala; ʻio, ko Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua te ne fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu.
23He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them off in their own wickedness. The LORD, our God, will cut them off.
