[1] ʻE SIHOVA, naʻa ke ʻahiʻahiʻi au, pea kuo ke ʻiloʻi au.
[2] ʻOku ke ʻiloʻi ʻeku nofo hifo mo ʻeku tuʻu hake, ʻoku ke ʻiloʻi ʻeku ngaahi mahalo ʻoku kei mamaʻo.
[3] ʻOku ke ʻāʻi hoku hala mo hoku tokotoʻanga, pea ʻoku ke ʻiloʻi hoku hala kotoa pē.
[4] He ʻoku ʻikai ha lea ʻi hoku ʻelelo, ka ko koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ke ʻiloʻi kotoa pē.
[5] Naʻa ke kāpui au ʻi hoku tuʻa mo hoku ʻao, ʻo ke hilifaki ho nima kiate au.
[6] Ko e ʻilo pehē ʻoku fakaofo lahi kiate au; ʻoku māʻolunga ia, ʻoku ʻikai te u faʻa lavaʻi ia.
[7] Te u ʻalu ki fē mei ho Laumālie? Pe te u hola ki fē mei ho ʻao?
[8] Kapau te u ʻalu hake ki he loto langi, ʻoku ke ʻi ai: kapau te u ngaohi hoku mohenga ʻi heli, vakai, ʻoku ke ʻi ai.
[9] Kapau te u toʻo mai ʻae ngaahi kapakau ʻoe pongipongi, pea nofo ʻi he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻoe tahi;
[10] ʻE tataki foki au ʻe ho nima ʻi ai, pea ko ho nima toʻomataʻu te ne puke au.
[11] Kapau te u pehē, Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻufiʻufi au ʻe he poʻuli; ʻe hoko ʻae pō foki ko e maama ʻo takatakai ʻiate au.
[12] ʻIo, ʻoku ʻikai fakafufū meiate koe ʻe he poʻuli, ka ʻoku malama ʻae pō ʻo hangē ko e ʻaho: ko e poʻuli mo e maama ʻoku na tatau pe kiate koe.
[13] He kuo ke maʻu hoku kongaloto: naʻa ke ʻufiʻufi au ʻi he manāva ʻo ʻeku faʻē.
[14] Te u fakamālō kiate koe; he ʻoku fakamanavahē mo fakaofo hoku ngaohi: ʻoku fakaofo hoʻo ngaahi ngāue; pea ʻoku ʻilo pau ki ai ʻe hoku laumālie.
[15] Naʻe ʻikai fufū ʻa hoku sino meiate koe, ʻi he ngaohi au ʻi he lilo, mo teuteu lelei au ʻi he ngaahi potu māʻulalo ʻoe fonua.
[16] Naʻe ʻafio ho fofonga ki hoku sino ʻoku teʻeki ai fakaʻosi; pea naʻe tohi ʻi hoʻo tohi hoku ngaahi kupuʻi sino kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe fakatupu fakaholo, ʻi he teʻeki ai ha kupu ʻe taha.
[17] ʻE ʻOtua, hono ʻikai mahuʻinga ʻa hoʻo ngaahi fakakaukau kiate au! ʻOku fēfē nai hono lahi ʻo ia!
[18] Kapau te u lau ia, ʻoku lahi hake hono lau ʻi he ʻoneʻone: ʻo kau ka ʻā hake ʻoku ou kei ʻiate koe.
[19] ʻE ʻOtua, ko e moʻoni te ke tāmateʻi ʻae angahala: ko ia mou ʻalu ʻiate au, ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau tangata pani toto.
[20] He ʻoku nau lea kovi ʻi he angatuʻu kiate koe, pea ko ho ngaahi fili ʻoku nau takuanoa ho huafa.
[21] ʻE Sihova, ʻikai ʻoku ou fehiʻa kiate kinautolu ʻoku nau fehiʻa kiate koe? Pea ʻikai ʻoku ou mamahi ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku nau tuʻu hake ʻo angatuʻu kiate koe?
[22] ʻOku ou fehiʻa kiate kinautolu ʻaki ʻae fehiʻa ʻaupito: ʻoku ou lau ʻakinautolu ko hoku ngaahi fili.
[23] ʻE ʻOtua, ʻafioʻi au, pea ke ʻiloʻi hoku loto: ʻahiʻahiʻi au, mo ke ʻiloʻi ʻeku ngaahi mahalo:
[24] Pea ke vakai pe ʻoku ai ha hala kovi ʻiate au, pea ke tataki au ʻi he hala taʻengata.
