< Psalms 80 >

1 For the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Lilies of the Covenant.” A Psalm of Asaph. Hear us, O Shepherd of Israel, who leads Joseph like a flock; You who sit enthroned between the cherubim, shine forth
Ki he Takimuʻa ʻi he Sosanimi ʻEtuta, ko e Saame ʻa ʻAsafi. Fakafanongo ʻae Tauhi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻa koe ʻoku ke tataki ʻa Siosefa ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipi; ʻa koe ʻoku ke ʻafio ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe selupimi, ke ke ulo mai.
2 before Ephraim, Benjamin, and Manasseh. Rally Your mighty power and come to save us.
‌ʻI he ʻao ʻo ʻIfalemi mo Penisimani mo Manase ke ke ueʻi hake ho mālohi, pea hāʻele mai ʻo fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu.
3 Restore us, O God, and cause Your face to shine upon us, that we may be saved.
‌ʻE ʻOtua, ke ke toe fakatafoki ʻakimautolu, pea tuku ke ulo mai ho fofonga; pea te mau moʻui ai.
4 O LORD God of Hosts, how long will Your anger smolder against the prayers of Your people?
‌ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa mo hoʻo kei houhau ki he lotu ʻa ho kakai?
5 You fed them with the bread of tears and made them drink the full measure of their tears.
‌ʻOku ke fafanga ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae mā ʻoe loʻimata; pea ʻoku ʻange kiate kinautolu ʻae loʻimata lahi kenau inu.
6 You make us contend with our neighbors; our enemies mock us.
‌ʻOku ke ngaohi ʻakimautolu ko e fekeʻikeʻiʻanga ʻo homau kaungāʻapi: pea ʻoku katakata homau ngaahi fili ʻiate kinautolu.
7 Restore us, O God of Hosts, and cause Your face to shine upon us, that we may be saved.
‌ʻE ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ke ke toe fakatafoki ʻakimautolu, pea tuku ke ulo mai ho fofonga; pea te mau moʻui ai.
8 You uprooted a vine from Egypt; You drove out the nations and transplanted it.
Naʻa ke lī kituʻa ʻae hiteni; ka naʻa ke ʻomi ʻae vaine mei ʻIsipite, ʻo tō ia.
9 You cleared the ground for it, and it took root and filled the land.
Naʻa ke fakaʻataʻatā [ʻae potu ]ʻi hono ʻao, pea naʻa ke fakaaka māʻulalo ia, pea naʻa ne fakapito ʻae fonua.
10 The mountains were covered by its shade, and the mighty cedars with its branches.
Naʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻae ngaahi moʻunga ʻi hono malumalu, pea ko hono ngaahi vaʻa naʻe hangē ko e ngaahi sita ʻae ʻOtua.
11 It sent out its branches to the Sea, and its shoots toward the River.
Naʻa ne tuku atu hono ngaahi vaʻa ki he tahi, mo hono ngaahi ʻuluʻulu ki he vaitafe.
12 Why have You broken down its walls, so that all who pass by pick its fruit?
Ko e hā kuo ke hae hifo ai hono ngaahi ʻā, ke toli ia ʻekinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu atu ʻi he hala?
13 The boar from the forest ravages it, and the creatures of the field feed upon it.
‌ʻOku maumauʻi ia ʻe he puaka tau mei he vao, ʻoku kai ke ʻosi ia ʻe he fanga manu kaivao.
14 Return, O God of Hosts, we pray! Look down from heaven and see! Attend to this vine—
‌ʻE ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻoku mau kole kiate koe ke ke foki mai: ʻafio hifo mei he langi, ʻo vakai, mo ʻaʻahi ki he vaine ni;
15 the root Your right hand has planted, the son You have raised up for Yourself.
Mo e ngoue vaine ʻaia kuo tō ʻe ho nima toʻomataʻu, mo e vaʻa ʻaia naʻa ke ngaohi ke mālohi maʻau.
16 Your vine has been cut down and burned; they perish at the rebuke of Your countenance.
Kuo tutu ia ʻaki ʻae afi, kuo tā hifo ia: kuo nau ʻauha ʻi he tautea ʻe ho fofonga.
17 Let Your hand be upon the man at Your right hand, on the son of man You have raised up for Yourself.
Tuku ke hili ho nima ki he tangata ʻo ho nima toʻomataʻu, ki he foha ʻoe tangata ʻaia naʻa ke fakamālohi maʻau.
18 Then we will not turn away from You; revive us, and we will call on Your name.
Pea ʻe ʻikai ai te mau foki kimui meiate koe: ke ke fakaakeake ʻakimautolu, pea temau ui ki ho huafa.
19 Restore us, O LORD God of Hosts; cause Your face to shine upon us, that we may be saved.
‌ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ke ke toe fakatafoki ʻakimautolu, pea tuku ke ulo mai ho fofonga; pea temau moʻui ai.
