Psalms 77

1 To the chief Musician. On Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A Psalm. My voice is unto God, and I will cry; my voice is unto God, and he will give ear unto me.

Ki he Takimuʻa ko Situtuni, ko e Saame ʻa ʻAsafi. Naʻa ku tangi ki he ʻOtua ʻaki hoku leʻo; ʻio, ki he ʻOtua ʻaki hoku leʻo pea ne tokanga kiate au.

2 In the day of my trouble, I sought the Lord: my hand was stretched out in the night, and slacked not; my soul refused to be comforted.

‌ʻI he ʻaho ʻo ʻeku mamahi naʻaku kumi ki he ʻEiki: naʻe aʻu pe ʻeku mamahi ʻi he poʻuli, pea ʻikai tuku: naʻe liʻaki ʻe hoku laumālie ʻae fakafiemālie.

3 I remembered God, and I moaned; I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. (Selah)

Naʻaku manatu ki he ʻOtua, pea u mamahi ai: naʻaku fakalaulauloto, pea naʻe lōmekina hoku laumālie. (Sila)

4 Thou holdest open mine eyelids; I am full of disquiet and cannot speak.

‌ʻOku ke pule ke ʻā hoku mata: ʻoku lahi ʻeku mamahi, ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ai te u faʻa lea.

5 I consider the days of old, the years of ancient times.

Naʻaku fakamanatu ki he ngaahi ʻaho ʻi muʻa, ki he ngaahi taʻu ʻi he ngaahi kuonga ʻi muʻa.

6 I remember my song in the night; I muse in mine own heart, and my spirit maketh diligent search.

‌ʻOku ou fakamanatu, ki heʻeku hiva ʻi he poʻuli: ʻoku ou fakakaukau mo hoku loto: pea naʻe ʻeke lahi ʻa hoku laumālie.

7 Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?

“ʻE liʻaki maʻuaipē ʻe Sihova? Pea ʻe ʻikai te ne toe finangalo ʻofa mai?

8 Hath his loving-kindness ceased for ever? hath [his] word come to an end from generation to generation?

Kuo mole ʻaupito ʻo taʻengata ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa? Pe kuo taʻehoko ʻene talaʻofa ki he toʻutangata mo e toʻutangata?

9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? or hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? (Selah)

Kuo ngalo ʻi he ʻOtua ke fai ʻofa? Kuo ne tāpuni ʻi he houhau ʻa ʻene ngaahi ʻaloʻofa ongongofua?” (Sila)

10 Then said I, This is my weakness: — the years of the right hand of the Most High

Pea ne u pehē, “Ko ʻeku vaivai eni ka te u manatu ki he ngaahi taʻu ʻoe nima toʻomataʻu ʻoe Fungani Māʻolunga.”

11 Will I remember, — the works of Jah; for I will remember thy wonders of old,

Te u manatu ki he ngaahi ngāue ʻa Sihova: ko e moʻoni te u manatu ki hoʻo ngaahi mana ʻi muʻa.

12 And I will meditate upon all thy work, and muse upon thy doings.

Te u fakalaulauloto foki ki hoʻo ngāue kotoa pē, ʻo talanoa ki hoʻo ngaahi faianga.

13 O God, thy way is in the sanctuary: who is so great a god as God?

‌ʻE ʻOtua, ko ho hala ʻoku ʻi he faletapu: ko hai ha ʻOtua ʻoku lahi ʻo hangē ko hotau ʻOtua!

14 Thou art the God that doest wonders; thou hast declared thy strength among the peoples.

Ko koe ko e ʻOtua ʻoku fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakaofo: kuo ke fakahā ho mālohi ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai.

15 Thou hast with [thine] arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Selah)

Naʻa ke huhuʻi ʻaki ho nima ʻa ho kakai, ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Sēkope mo Siosefa. (Sila)

16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they trembled, yea, the depths were troubled:

Naʻe mamata kiate koe ʻae ngaahi vai, ʻE ʻOtua, naʻe mamata kiate koe ʻae ngaahi vai; pea naʻa nau manavahē: naʻe ngaueue foki ʻae ngaahi loloto.

17 The thick clouds poured out water; the skies sent out a sound, yea, thine arrows went abroad:

Naʻe lilingi ʻae vai ʻe he ngaahi ʻao: naʻe fakaʻuʻulu mei he langi ʻae longoaʻa: pea naʻe puna foki hoʻo ngaahi ngahau ki he mamaʻo.

18 The voice of thy thunder was in the whirlwind, lightnings lit up the world; the earth was troubled and it quaked.

Naʻe ʻi he langi ʻae leʻo ʻo hoʻo mana: naʻe fakamaama ʻaki ʻa māmani ʻae ngaahi ʻuhila: naʻe tetetete mo ngalulu ʻae fonua.

19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths are in the great waters; and thy footsteps are not known.

Ko ho hala ʻoku ʻi he tahi, mo ho hāʻeleʻanga ʻoku ʻi he vai lahi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻilonga ʻa ho ngaahi ʻaluʻanga.

20 Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

Naʻa ke tataki atu ho kakai ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipi ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese mo ʻElone.
