< Psalms 92 >

1 A Psalm of a Song for the Sabbath-day. It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to your name, O you Most High;
Ko e Saame pe ko e Hiva ki he ʻaho tapu. ‌ʻOku lelei ke ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi kia Sihova, pea ke hiva fakamālō ki ho huafa, ʻE fungani māʻolunga:
2 to proclaim your mercy in the morning, and your truth by night,
Ke fakahā atu hoʻo ʻaloʻofa ʻi he pongipongi, mo hoʻo moʻoni ʻi he pō kotoa pē,
3 on a lute of ten strings, with a song on the harp.
‌ʻAki ʻae meʻa faiva ʻoku hongofulu hono filo, pea mo e saliteli; ʻaki ʻae leʻo mamafa ʻi he haʻape.
4 For you, O Lord, have made me glad with your work: and in the operations of your hands will I exult.
He kuo ke fakafiefiaʻi au, ʻE Sihova, ʻi hoʻo ngāue: te u vikiviki ʻi he ngaahi ngāue ʻa ho nima.
5 How have your works been magnified, O Lord! your thoughts are very deep.
‌ʻE Sihova, ʻoku mātuʻaki lahi hoʻo ngaahi ngāue! pea ʻoku loloto ʻaupito hoʻo ngaahi fakakaukau.
6 A foolish man will not know, and a senseless man will not understand this.
‌ʻOku ʻikai ʻiloʻi ʻe he tangata anga fakamanu; pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo eni ʻe he vale.
7 When the sinners spring up as the grass, and all the workers of iniquity have watched; [it is] that they may be utterly destroyed for ever.
‌ʻOka tupu ʻae kau angahala ʻo hangē ko e mohuku, pea ʻoka moʻui lelei ʻae kau fai kovi kotoa pē; ko e meʻa ia ke fakaʻauha ai ʻakinautolu ʻo taʻengata:
8 But you, O Lord, are most high for ever.
Ka ko koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ke fungani māʻolunga ʻo taʻengata.
9 For, behold, your enemies shall perish; and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
Pea vakai, ko ho ngaahi fili, ʻE Sihova, ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻauha ho ngaahi fili; ʻe fakahēʻi ʻae kau fai kovi kotoa pē.
10 But my horn shall be exalted [as the horn] of a unicorn; and mine old age with rich mercy.
Ka te ke hiki hake hoku nifo ʻo hangē ko e nifo ʻoe liimi: ʻe tākai ʻaki au ʻae lolo foʻou.
11 And mine eye has seen mine enemies, and mine ear shall hear the wicked that rise up against me.
Pea ʻe mamata foki ʻa hoku mata ki hoku ngaahi fili, pea ʻe fanongo ʻa hoku telinga, ki he angahala ʻoku tuʻu hake ʻo angatuʻu kiate au.
12 The righteous shall flourish as a palm tree: he shall be increased as the cedar in Libanus.
‌ʻE lau maʻuiʻui ʻae angatonu ʻo hangē ko e ʻakau ko e ponga: ʻe tupu ia ʻo hangē ko e sita ʻi Lepanoni.
13 They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.
Ko kinautolu kuo tō ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova tenau lau maʻuiʻui ʻi he ngaahi lotoʻā ʻo hotau ʻOtua.
14 Then shall they be increased in a fine old age; and they shall be prosperous; that they may declare
‌ʻE kei tupu ʻae fua ʻiate kinautolu ʻi heʻenau motuʻa; tenau sino lelei mo lau maʻuiʻui.
15 that the Lord my God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him.
Ke fakahā ʻoku angatonu ʻa Sihova: ko hoku maka ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha taʻemāʻoniʻoni ʻiate ia.
