[1] TE U ʻofa kiate koe, ʻE Sihova, ko ʻeku mālohi.
[2] Ko hoku makatuʻu ʻa Sihova, mo ʻeku kolo, mo hoku fakamoʻui; ko hoku ʻOtua, ko hoku mālohi, ʻaia te u falala ki ai; ko hoku fakaū, mo e mālohi ʻo ʻeku moʻui, mo hoku hūfanga māʻolunga.
[3] Te u ui kia Sihova, ʻaia ʻoku ngali mo ia ʻae fakafetaʻi: ko ia te u moʻui ai mei hoku ngaahi fili.
[4] Naʻe kāpui au ʻe he ngaahi mamahi ʻoe mate. pea naʻe fakamanavahēʻi au ʻe he lōmaki mai ʻoe kau tangata angakovi.
[5] Naʻe kāpui au ʻe he ngaahi mamahi ʻo hētesi: naʻe talia au ʻe he ngaahi tauhele ʻoe mate.
[6] ʻI heʻeku mamahi naʻaku ui kia Sihova, mo tangi ki hoku ʻOtua: pea ne ongoʻi hoku leʻo mei hono faletapu, pea naʻe aʻu atu ʻeku tangi ki hono ʻao, ʻio, ki hono fofonga.
[7] Naʻe ngalulu ai ʻa māmani ʻo tetetete; naʻe ngaue mo lulululu foki ʻae tuʻunga ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga, koeʻuhi ko ʻene houhau.
[8] Naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae kohu ʻi hono houhau, pea naʻe keina ʻe he afi mei hono ngutu: naʻe tutuʻaki ia ʻae fefie.
[9] Naʻa ne ofeʻi hifo foki ʻae ngaahi langi, ʻo hāʻele hifo: pea naʻe ʻi hono lalo vaʻe ʻae poʻuli.
[10] Naʻe heka ia ki he selupi, pea hāʻele ia: ʻio, naʻe hāʻele ia ʻi he ngaahi kapakau ʻoe matangi.
[11] Naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae poʻuli ko hono fakalilolilo: ko hono ʻafioʻanga naʻe kāpui ia ʻe he vai fakapoʻuli mo e ngaahi ʻao matolu ʻoe langi.
[12] ʻI he ulo mei hono ʻao naʻe mole atu ai ʻa ʻene ngaahi ʻao matolu, ʻae ʻuha maka mo e ngaahi malalaʻi afi.
[13] Naʻe mana foki ʻe Sihova ʻi he ngaahi langi, pea fakahā hono leʻo ʻe he Fungani Māʻolunga; ko e ʻuha maka mo e ngaahi malalaʻi afi.
[14] ʻIo, naʻa ne fana atu ʻene ngaahi ngahau, pea veteki ʻakinautolu; pea ne fana ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻuhila, ʻo veuveuki ʻakinautolu.
[15] Naʻe toki hā ai ʻae ngaahi tafeʻanga ʻoe vai, pea fakahā ai ʻae ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo māmani ʻi ho houhau, ʻE Sihova, ʻi he matangi ʻoe mānava ʻo ho houhau.
[16] Naʻa ne fekau mei ʻolunga, naʻa ne toʻo au, naʻa ne toʻo hake au mei he ngaahi vai lahi.
[17] Naʻa ne fakahaofi au mei hoku fili
[18] Naʻa nau fakatangaʻi au ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻeku tuʻutāmaki: ka ko hoku tokoni ʻa Sihova.
[19] Naʻa ne ʻomi au ki he potu ʻataʻatā lahi; naʻa ne fakahaofi au, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fiemālie ʻiate au.
[20] Naʻe totongi ʻe Sihova kiate au ʻo fakatatau ki heʻeku māʻoniʻoni; ʻo fakatatau ki he maʻa ʻa hoku nima kuo ne totongi kiate au.
[21] He naʻaku tauhi ʻae ngaahi hala ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu ʻi he angakovi mei hoku ʻOtua.
[22] He naʻe ʻi hoku ʻao ʻa ʻene ngaahi fakamaau kotoa pē, pea naʻe ʻikai te u liʻaki ʻene ngaahi fekau ʻiate au.
[23] Pea naʻaku angatonu foki ʻi hono ʻao, pea ne u taʻofi au mei heʻeku hia.
[24] Ko ia kuo totongi ai au ʻe Sihova ʻo fakatatau ki heʻeku māʻoniʻoni, pea fakatatau ki he maʻa ʻa hoku nima ʻi hono ʻao.
[25] ʻI he kakai loto ʻofa te ke fakahā koe ko e ʻaloʻofa; ki he tangata angatonu te ke fakahā koe ko e angatonu;
[26] Ki he māʻoniʻoni te ke fakahā koe ʻae māʻoniʻoni; pea ki he tangata angatuʻu temo fekuki mo ia.
[27] He ko koe te ke fakamoʻui ʻae kakai mamahi: ka te ke ʻohifo ki lalo ʻae mata fielahi.
[28] Pea te ke tutu ʻeku maama: ʻo huluʻaki ʻeku fakapoʻuli ʻe Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua.
[29] He ko e meʻa ʻiate koe naʻaku halaua ʻae tau ʻo hao; pea ʻi hoku ʻOtua ne u puna kituʻa ʻi he ʻā maka.
[30] Pea ko e ʻOtua, ʻoku haohaoa hono hala: ʻoku ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova: ko e fakaū ia kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku falala kiate ia.
[31] He ko hai ʻoku ʻOtua ka ko Sihova pē? Pe ko hai ʻae makatuʻu ka ko hotau ʻOtua pē?
[32] Ko e ʻOtua ia ʻoku ne nonoʻo ʻaki au ʻae mālohi, ʻo fakahaohaoa hoku ʻaluʻanga.
[33] ʻOku ne ngaohi hoku vaʻe ke hangē ko e vaʻe ʻoe hainiti, ʻo ne fokotuʻu au ki hoku ngaahi potu māʻolunga.
[34] ʻOku ne akonakiʻi hoku nima ke tau, ko ia ʻoku fesiʻi ai ʻe hoku nima ʻae kaufana ukamea.
[35] Pea kuo ke foaki foki kiate au ʻae fakaū ʻo hoʻo fakamoʻui: pea kuo poupou hake au ʻe ho nima toʻomataʻu, pea ʻi hoʻo angamalū kuo ke hakeakiʻi au.
[36] Kuo ke fakaʻataʻatā hoku ʻaluʻanga ʻi lalo ʻiate au, ko ia naʻe ʻikai hekea ai hoku vaʻe.
[37] Naʻaku tuli hoku ngaahi fili ʻo maʻu ʻakinautolu: pea naʻe ʻikai te u toe foki kaeʻoua ke ʻauha ʻakinautolu.
[38] Kuo nau makafokafo ʻiate au, ko ia naʻe ʻikai ai tenau faʻa tuʻu hake: kuo nau tō ki hoku lalo vaʻe.
[39] He naʻa ke nonoʻo ʻaki au ʻae mālohi ki he tau: kuo ke fakavaivai ki lalo ʻiate au ʻakinautolu naʻe tuʻu hake kiate au.
[40] Pea kuo ke foaki foki kiate au ʻae kia ʻo hoku ngaahi fili; koeʻuhi ke u fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate au.
[41] Naʻa nau tangi, ka naʻe ʻikai ha taha ke fakamoʻui: ʻio, kia Sihova, ka naʻe ʻikai te ne talia ʻakinautolu.
[42] Pea ne u toki tali ʻakinautolu ʻo momosi ʻo hangē ko e efu ʻoku vilingia ʻi he matangi: naʻaku lī ʻakinautolu kituʻa ʻo hangē ko e pelepela ʻi he ngaahi hala.
[43] Kuo ke fakamoʻui au mei he ngaahi fekeʻikeʻi ʻoe kakai; pea kuo ke ngaohi au ko e ʻulu ki he hiteni: ko e kakai naʻe ʻikai te u ʻiloʻi te nau tauhi au.
[44] ʻOka nau ka fanongo kiate au, te nau talangofua leva kiate au: ko e kau muli te nau fakavaivai ʻakinautolu kiate au.
[45] ʻE fakaʻaʻau ʻo ʻosi ʻae ngaahi muli, pea te nau manavahē mei honau ngaahi potu lilo.
[46] ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova; pea fakafetaʻi ki hoku makatuʻu; pea tuku ke hakeakiʻi ʻae ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku moʻui.
[47] Ko e ʻOtua ia ʻoku langomia au, ʻo ne fakavaivai ʻae kakai kiate au.
[48] ʻOku ne fakamoʻui au mei hoku ngaahi fili: ʻio, ʻoku ke hiki au ke u māʻolunga ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku angatuʻu kiate au: kuo ke fakamoʻui au mei he tangata angamālohi.
[49] Ko ia te u fakafetaʻi ai kiate koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe hiteni, pea te u hivaʻaki ʻae fakafetaʻi ki ho huafa.
[50] ʻOku ne tuku ʻae fakamoʻui lahi ki heʻene tuʻi; ʻo ne fakahā ʻae ʻaloʻofa kiate ia kuo ne pani ʻaki ʻae lolo, kia Tevita, mo hono hako ʻo taʻengata.
