[1] ʻE SIHOVA, fakamoʻui au mei he tangata angakovi: fakamoʻui au mei he tangata fakamālohi;
[2] ʻAia ʻoku mahalo kovi ʻi honau loto; ʻoku nau fakataha maʻuaipē ke tau.
[3] Kuo nau fakamāsila honau ʻelelo ʻo hangē ko e ngata; ʻoku ʻai ʻae kona ʻoe ngata ʻi honau lalo loungutu. Sila.
[4] Fakahaofi au, ʻE Sihova, mei he nima ʻoe angahala; fakamoʻui au mei he tangata fakamālohi, ʻaia kuo ne fakakaukau ke tulaki hifo hoku vaʻe.
[5] Kuo tau fufū ʻe he laukau ʻae tauhele kiate au, mo e ngaahi afo; kuo nau ʻaʻau ʻae kupenga ʻi he veʻe hala; kuo nau teuteu ʻae ngaahi hele kiate au. Sila.
[6] Naʻaku pehē kia Sihova, “Ko koe ko hoku ʻOtua:” ʻE Sihova, ke ke ongoʻi ʻae leʻo ʻo ʻeku ngaahi lotu tāumaʻu.
[7] ʻE Sihova ko e ʻEiki, ko e mālohi ʻo ʻeku fakamoʻui, kuo ke maluʻi hoku ʻulu ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe tau.
[8] ʻE Sihova, ʻoua naʻa ke fai ki he ngaahi holi ʻae angahala: ʻoua naʻa ke tokoni ʻene fakakaukau kovi, telia naʻa nau hiki hake ʻakinautolu. Sila.
[9] Ka ko e ʻulu ʻokinautolu ʻoku nau kāpui au, tuku ke ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae kovi ʻo honau loungutu.
[10] Ke tō kiate kinautolu ʻae malalaʻi afi ʻoku vela: tuku ke lī ʻakinautolu ki he afi; ki he ngaahi luo tau mamaʻo, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa nau toetuʻu hake.
[11] ʻOua naʻa tuku ha tangata lea kovi ke tuʻumaʻu ʻi māmani: ʻe tuli ʻe he kovi ʻae tangata fakamālohi ke tulaki ia.
[12] ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻe fakamaau ʻe Sihova ʻae meʻa ʻae mamahi, mo e ʻinasi totonu ʻoe masiva.
[13] Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi ʻe he māʻoniʻoni ki ho huafa: ʻe nofo ʻae angatonu ʻi ho ʻao.
