Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1In the LORD, I take refuge. How can you say to my soul, “Flee as a bird to your mountain”?
1ʻOku ou falala kia Sihova: pea ʻoku fēfē hoʻomou pehē ki hoku laumālie, “Puna ʻo hangē ko e manu ki ho moʻunga?
2For, behold, the wicked bend their bows. They set their arrows on the strings, that they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.
2He ʻoku teke ʻe he angahala ʻenau kaufana, ʻoku nau ʻai ʻenau ngaahi ngahau ki he uka, koeʻuhi ke nau fana fakafufū pē ki he angatonu ʻi loto.
3If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?
3Kapau ʻe ʻauha ʻae ngaahi tuʻunga, ko e hā ʻe faʻa fai ʻe he kakai māʻoniʻoni?”
4The LORD is in his holy temple. The LORD is on his throne in heaven. His eyes observe. His eyes examine the children of men.
4ʻOku ʻi hono fale māʻoniʻoni ʻa Sihova, ko e ʻafioʻanga ʻa Sihova ʻoku ʻi he langi: ʻoku ʻafioʻi ʻe hono fofonga, ʻoku ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻe hono lauʻifofonga, ʻae ngaahi fānau ʻae tangata.
5The LORD examines the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and him who loves violence.
5ʻOku ʻahiʻahi ʻe Sihova ʻae māʻoniʻoni: ka ko e angakovi mo ia ʻoku manako ki he fakamālohi ʻoku fehiʻa hono laumālie ki ai.
6On the wicked he will rain blazing coals; fire, sulfur, and scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup.
6Te ne fakaʻauha ki he ngaahi angahala ʻae ngaahi tauhele, ko e afi, mo e sulifa, mo e afā fakailifia ʻaupito: ko e ʻinasi ia ʻo ʻenau ipu.
7For the LORD is righteous. He loves righteousness. The upright shall see his face.
7He ʻoku ʻofa ʻa Sihova ko e māʻoniʻoni ki he māʻoniʻoni; ʻoku ʻafio ʻe hono fofonga ki he angatonu.
