Psalms 70

1 Hasten, O God, to deliver me. Make haste to help me, O Jehovah.

Ki he Takimuʻa, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita, ko e fakamanatu. ‌ʻE ʻOtua, ke ke fakamoʻui au; ʻE Sihova, ke ke fai vave ke tokoni au.

2 Let them be put to shame and confounded who seek after my soul. Let them be turned backward and brought to dishonor who delight in my hurt.

Tuku ke mā mo puputuʻu ʻakinautolu ʻoku kumi hoku laumālie: tuku ke fakafoki kimui, mo fakamaveuveu, ʻakinautolu ʻoku holi ke u kovi.

3 Let them be turned back because of their shame who say, Aha, aha.

Tuku ke foki kimui ʻakinautolu, ko e totongi ʻo ʻenau kovi, ʻakinautolu ʻoku pehē, Ha ha.

4 Let all those who seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee. And let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.

Tuku ke fiefia mo nekeneka ʻiate koe ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku kumi kiate koe: tuku ke lea pehē maʻuaipē ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻofa ki hoʻo fakamoʻui, “Ke ongoongolelei ʻae ʻOtua.”

5 But I am poor and needy. Make haste to me, O God. Thou are my help and my deliverer, O Jehovah. Delay thou not.

Ka ko au ʻoku ou masiva mo paea: ʻE ʻOtua, ke ke haʻu vave kiate au: ko koe ko hoku tokoni mo hoku fakamoʻui; ʻE Sihova, ʻoua naʻa ke tatali.
