Tongan Bible, Revised West Version
1LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens!
1ʻE Sihova ko homau ʻEiki, ʻoku lelei lahi ho huafa ʻi māmani kotoa pē! Kuo ke fokotuʻu ho nāunau ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi langi.
2From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.
2Kuo ke tuʻutuʻuni mei he ngutu ʻoe kau valevale mo e kei huhu ʻae mālohi, ko e meʻa ʻi ho ngaahi fili, koeʻuhi ke ke pule ke fakalongo pē ʻae fili mo e fakafāsifasi.
3When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained,
3ʻO kau ka fakakaukau ki ho ngaahi langi, ko e ngāue ʻo ho louhiʻi nima, ko e māhina mo e ngaahi fetuʻu, ʻaia naʻa ke fokotuʻu;
4what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him?
4Ko e hā ʻae tangata ʻoku ke tokanga ai kiate ia? Pe ko e foha ʻae tangata, ʻoku ke ʻaʻahi ai kiate ia?
5For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honor.
5He kuo ke ngaohi ia ke māʻulalo siʻi ʻi he ngaahi ʻāngelo, pea kuo ke tatāʻaki ia ʻae nāunau mo e ongoongolelei.
6You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet:
6Naʻa ke fakanofo ia ke ne pule ki he ngaahi ngāue ʻa ho nima; kuo ke tuku ʻae meʻa kotoa pē ki hono lalo vaʻe:
7All sheep and cattle, yes, and the animals of the field,
7ʻAe fanga sipi kotoa pē mo e fanga pulu, ʻio, mo e ngaahi manu ʻoe fonua;
8the birds of the sky, the fish of the sea, and whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
8Ko e manupuna ʻoe ʻatā, mo e ika ʻoe tahi, mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaluʻanga ʻi he tahi.
9LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
9ʻE Sihova ko homau ʻEiki, ʻoku lelei lahi ho huafa ʻi māmani kotoa pē!
