< Psalms 104 >

1 Bless the LORD, O my soul! O LORD my God, You are very great; You are clothed with splendor and majesty.
Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova, ʻa hoku laumālie. ʻE Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua, ʻoku ke lahi ʻaupito; kuo kofuʻaki koe ʻae fakaʻapaʻapa mo e māfimafi.
2 He wraps Himself in light as with a garment; He stretches out the heavens like a tent,
‌ʻOku ke ʻufiʻufi ʻaki koe ʻae maama ʻo hangē ko e kofu: ʻoku ke fofola atu ʻae ngaahi langi ʻo hangē ko e puipui:
3 laying the beams of His chambers in the waters above, making the clouds His chariot, walking on the wings of the wind.
‌ʻOku ne ʻai ʻae ngaahi utupoto ʻo hono ngaahi fale ʻi he ngaahi vai: pea ko ʻene saliote ʻae ngaahi ʻao: pea ʻoku hāʻele ia ʻi he ngaahi kapakau ʻoe matangi:
4 He makes the winds His messengers, flames of fire His servants.
‌ʻOku ne ngaohi ʻene kau ʻāngelo ke hangē ko e matangi; mo ʻene kau faifekau ko e afi ʻoku ulo:
5 He set the earth on its foundations, never to be moved.
Naʻa ne ʻai ʻae ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo māmani, ke ʻoua naʻa ueʻi ia ʻo lauikuonga.
6 You covered it with the deep like a garment; the waters stood above the mountains.
‌ʻOku ke ʻufiʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae loloto ʻo hangē ko e kofu: naʻe tuʻu ʻae ngaahi vai ʻo māʻolunga hake ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga.
7 At Your rebuke the waters fled; at the sound of Your thunder they hurried away—
‌ʻI hoʻo valoki naʻa nau puna; ʻi he leʻo ʻo hoʻo fatulisi naʻa nau hola ai.
8 the mountains rose and the valleys sank to the place You assigned for them—
‌ʻOku nau ʻalu hake ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga, pea nau ʻalu hifo ʻi he ngaahi vahaʻa moʻunga, ki he potu kuo ke teuteu ki ai.
9 You set a boundary they cannot cross, that they may never again cover the earth.
Kuo ke ʻai hono ngataʻanga ke ʻoua naʻa ʻalu atu ia ʻi ai; koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa toe haʻu ia ke lōfia ʻa māmani.
10 He sends forth springs in the valleys; they flow between the mountains.
‌ʻOku ne fekau atu ʻae ngaahi matavai ʻi he ngaahi luo, ʻaia ʻoku tafe ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi foʻi moʻunga.
11 They give drink to every beast of the field; the wild donkeys quench their thirst.
‌ʻOku inu mei ai ʻae fanga manu kotoa pē ʻoe vao: pea ʻoku inu ʻo fiu ai ʻae fanga ʻasi hehengi.
12 The birds of the air nest beside the springs; they sing among the branches.
‌ʻOku maʻu ʻi ai ʻe he manupuna ʻoe ʻatā honau nofoʻanga, ʻoku nau hiva ʻi he ngaahi vaʻa.
13 He waters the mountains from His chambers; the earth is satisfied by the fruit of His works.
‌ʻOku ne fakaviviku ʻae ngaahi foʻi moʻunga mei hono fale ʻafioʻanga: ʻoku mākona ʻae kelekele ʻi he fua ʻo hoʻo ngaahi ngāue.
14 He makes the grass grow for the livestock and provides crops for man to cultivate, bringing forth food from the earth:
‌ʻOku fakatupu ʻe ia ʻae mohuku maʻae fanga manu, mo e ʻakau ke ʻaonga ki he tangata: koeʻuhi ke ne ʻomi ʻae meʻakai mei he kelekele;
15 wine that gladdens the heart of man, oil that makes his face to shine, and bread that sustains his heart.
Mo e uaine ʻaia ʻoku fakafiefiaʻi ʻae loto ʻoe tangata, mo e lolo ke fakangingila hono mata, mo e mā ke fakamālohi ʻae loto ʻoe tangata.
16 The trees of the LORD have their fill, the cedars of Lebanon that He planted,
‌ʻOku fonu ʻi he huhuʻa ʻae ngaahi ʻakau ʻo Sihova; ko e ngaahi sita ʻo Lepanoni, ʻaia kuo ne tō;
17 where the birds build their nests; the stork makes her home in the cypresses.
‌ʻOku ngaohi ʻi ai ʻe he fanga manupuna honau pununga: pea ko e sitoaka, ko hono fale ko e ngaahi ʻakau ko e paini.
18 The high mountains are for the wild goats, the cliffs a refuge for the rock badgers.
Ko e ngaahi foʻi moʻunga māʻolunga ko e hūfanga ia ʻoe fanga kosi hehengi; pea mo e ngaahi maka ki he fanga koni.
19 He made the moon to mark the seasons; the sun knows when to set.
Naʻa ne tuʻutuʻuni ʻae māhina ki he ngaahi faʻahitaʻu: ʻoku ʻiloʻi ʻe he laʻā hono tōʻanga.
20 You bring darkness, and it becomes night, when all the beasts of the forest prowl.
‌ʻOku ke ngaohi ʻae poʻuli, pea ko e pō ia: pea ʻoku totolo atu ʻi ai ʻae fanga manu kotoa pē ʻoe vao.
21 The young lions roar for their prey and seek their food from God.
‌ʻOku ngungulu ʻae fanga laione mui ke maʻu ʻenau meʻa, pea nau kumi ʻenau meʻakai mei he ʻOtua.
22 The sun rises, and they withdraw; they lie down in their dens.
‌ʻOku hopo hake ʻae laʻā, pea ʻoku nau fakataha ai, ʻonau tokoto ʻi honau ngaahi ʻana.
23 Man goes forth to his work and to his labor until evening.
‌ʻOku ʻalu atu ʻae tangata ki heʻene ngāue, mo ʻene ngoue ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi.
24 How many are Your works, O LORD! In wisdom You have made them all; the earth is full of Your creatures.
‌ʻE Sihova, hono ʻikai lahi ʻa hoʻo ngaahi ngāue! Kuo ke ngaohi kotoa pē ia ʻi he poto: ʻoku fonu ʻa māmani ʻi hoʻo koloa.
25 Here is the sea, vast and wide, teeming with creatures beyond number, living things both great and small.
Pea ʻoku pehē ʻae tahi lahi ni mo laulahi, ʻa ia ʻoku ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa totolo taʻefaʻalaua, ʻae fanga ika iiki mo e lalahi.
26 There the ships pass, and Leviathan, which You formed to frolic there.
‌ʻOku ʻalu ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi vaka: ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae levaiatani ko ia, ʻaia kuo ke ngaohi ke ne fakavā ai.
27 All creatures look to You to give them their food in due season.
‌ʻOku tatali ʻakinautolu ni kotoa pē kiate koe: koeʻuhi ke ke foaki kiate kinautolu ʻenau meʻakai ʻi he feituʻulaʻā totonu.
28 When You give it to them, they gather it up; when You open Your hand, they are satisfied with good things.
Ko ia ʻoku ke foaki kiate kinautolu ʻoku nau tānaki: ʻoku ke mafola ho nima, pea ʻoku pito ʻakinautolu ʻi he lelei.
29 When You hide Your face, they are terrified; when You take away their breath, they die and return to dust.
‌ʻOku ke fufū ho fofonga, pea nau mamahi ai: ʻoku ke toʻo atu ʻenau mānava, pea nau mate, pea foki ki honau efu.
30 When You send Your Spirit, they are created, and You renew the face of the earth.
‌ʻOku ke fekau atu ho Laumālie, pea ʻoku fakatupu ai ʻakinautolu: pea ʻoku ke fakafoʻou ʻae funga ʻo māmani.
31 May the glory of the LORD endure forever; may the LORD rejoice in His works.
‌ʻE tolonga ʻo taʻengata ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova: ʻe fiefia ʻa Sihova ʻi heʻene ngaahi ngāue.
32 He looks on the earth, and it trembles; He touches the mountains, and they smolder.
‌ʻOku ʻafio ia ki māmani, pea tetetete ia: ʻoku ala ia ki he ngaahi foʻi moʻunga, pea ʻoku nau kohu ai.
33 I will sing to the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
Te u hiva kia Sihova ʻi heʻeku kei moʻui: te u hiva fakamālō ki hoku ʻOtua ʻi he lolotonga ʻo ʻeku moʻui.
34 May my meditation be pleasing to Him, for I rejoice in the LORD.
‌ʻE melie ʻa ʻeku fakakaukau kiate ia: te u fiefia ʻia Sihova.
35 May sinners vanish from the earth and the wicked be no more. Bless the LORD, O my soul. Hallelujah!
Tuku ke ʻosiʻosingamālie ʻae kakai angahala mei māmani, pea ʻoua naʻa kei toe ʻae kau angakovi. Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova, ʻa hoku laumālie. Mou fakamālō kia Sihova.
