< Psalms 62 >

1 For Jeduthun, the music director. A psalm of David. Only in God do I find peace; my salvation comes from him.
Ki he Takimuʻa ko Situtuni, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. Ko e moʻoni ʻoku tatali hoku laumālie ki he ʻOtua: ʻoku meiate ia hoku fakamoʻui.
2 He is the one who protects me and saves me; he keeps me safe so I will never be in danger.
Ko ia pē ko hoku makatuʻu mo hoku fakamoʻui; ko hoku hūfanga ia; ʻe ʻikai faʻa ueʻi lahi au.
3 How long are you going to attack me? All of you against one man! To you I'm just a broken wall, a collapsed fence.
‌ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa mo hoʻomou kei filioʻi kovi ki he tangata? ʻe tāmateʻi ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē: te mou hangē ko e ʻā kuo malele, mo e ʻā ʻoku tuʻu tetetete.
4 They plan to throw me down from my high position; they love to tell lies. They say nice things to me, but inside they're cursing me. (Selah)
‌ʻOku nau fakakaukau ke tulaki hifo ia mei heʻene lelei: ʻoku nau fiemālie pe ʻi he loi: ʻoku nau tāpuaki ʻaki honau ngutu, ka ʻoku nau kape ʻi loto. (Sila)
5 Only in God do I find peace; my hope comes from him.
‌ʻE hoku laumālie, ke ke tatali pe ki he ʻOtua; he ʻoku meiate ia ʻeku ʻamanaki lelei.
6 He is the one who protects me and saves me; he keeps me safe so I will not be in danger.
Ko ia pe ko hoku makatuʻu mo hoku fakamoʻui: ko hoku hūfanga ia; ʻe ʻikai faʻa ueʻi au.
7 My salvation and my success come from God alone; God is my security and my protection.
‌ʻOku ʻi he ʻOtua ʻa hoku fakamoʻui mo ʻeku fiefia: ko e makatuʻu ʻo hoku mālohi, mo hoku hūfanga ʻoku ʻi he ʻOtua.
8 My people, always trust in him. Pour out all your thoughts to him, for he is the one who looks after us. (Selah)
Falala maʻuaipē kiate ia; ʻakimoutolu ʻae kakai, lilingi homou loto ʻi hono ʻao: ko e hūfanga ʻae ʻOtua kiate kitautolu. (Sila)
9 Ordinary people are mere breaths, while leaders are just fakes. Put them all together and weigh them on scales and they wouldn't weigh more than air!
Ko e moʻoni ko e meʻa vaʻinga pe ʻae kau tangata māʻulalo, pea ko e meʻa loi ʻae kau tangata māʻolunga: kapau ʻe ʻai ki he meʻa fakamamafa, ʻoku nau maʻamaʻa lahi hake kotoa pē ʻi he meʻa vaʻinga.
10 Don't trust in money made by extortion or robbery. Don't be proud of your wealth even if you are successful—don't make money what you live for.
‌ʻOua naʻa falala ki he fakamālohi pea ʻoua naʻa viki ʻi he kaihaʻa: kapau ʻoku tupu ʻae koloa, ʻoua naʻa tuku homou loto ki ai.
11 God has already made it clear—I have heard it many times—power belongs to you, God.
Kuo folofola ʻae ʻOtua ʻo tuʻo taha; pea naʻe tuʻo ua ʻa ʻeku fanongo eni; ʻoku ʻi he ʻOtua ʻae mālohi.
12 You show us trustworthy love. You give back to people in return for what they've done.
Pea ʻoku ʻiate koe foki, ʻE ʻEiki, ʻae ʻaloʻofa: he ʻoku ke ʻange ki he tangata taki taha kotoa pē ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene ngāue.
