2 Samuel 22
1 And Dauid spake the woordes of this song vnto the Lord, what time the Lord had deliuered him out of the handes of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul.
Pea naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe Tevita kia Sihova ʻae ngaahi lea ʻoe hiva ni ʻi he ʻaho naʻe fakamoʻui ai ia ʻe Sihova mei he nima ʻo hono fili kotoa pē, pea mei he nima ʻo Saula: ʻo ne pehē,
2 And he sayd, The Lord is my rocke and my fortresse, and he that deliuereth mee.
Ko hoku makatuʻu ʻa Sihova, mo ʻeku kolo, mo hoku fakamoʻui;
3 God is my strength, in him will I trust: my shielde, and the horne of my saluation, my hie tower and my refuge: my Sauiour, thou hast saued me from violence.
Ko e ʻOtua ʻo hoku mālohi; ko ia te u falala ki ai: ko hoku fakaū, mo e mālohi ʻo ʻeku moʻui, ko hoku fale māʻolunga, mo hoku hūfanga, mo hoku fakamoʻui; ʻoku ke fakahaofi au mei he fakamālohiʻi.
4 I will call on the Lord, who is worthy to be praysed: so shall I be safe from mine enemies.
Te u ui kia Sihova ʻaia ʻoku taau mo ia ʻae fakafetaʻi: pea ʻe pehē ʻae fakamoʻui au mei hoku ngaahi fili.
5 For the pangs of death haue compassed me: the floods of vngodlinesse haue made mee afrayd.
ʻI heʻene kāpui au ʻe he ngaahi mamahi ʻoe mate, naʻe fakamanavahēʻi au ʻe he lōmaki mai ʻae kau tangata angakovi;
Naʻe kāpui au ʻe he ngaahi mamahi ʻoe faʻitoka; naʻe talia au ʻe he ngaahi tauhele ʻoe mate (Sheol h7585)
7 But in my tribulation did I call vpon the Lord, and crie to my God, and he did heare my voyce out of his temple, and my crie did enter into his eares.
ʻI heʻeku mamahi naʻaku ui kia Sihova, mo tangi ki hoku ʻOtua: pea naʻa ne fanongo ki hoku leʻo mei hono faletapu, pea naʻe aʻu atu ʻa ʻeku tangi ki hono fofonga.
8 Then the earth trembled and quaked: the foundations of the heauens mooued and shooke, because he was angrie.
Naʻe toki ngalulu ai ʻa māmani mo tetetete; naʻe ngaue mo lulululu ʻae tuʻunga ʻoe langi, koeʻuhi ko ʻene houhau.
9 Smoke went out at his nostrels, and consuming fire out of his mouth: coles were kindled thereat.
Naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae kohu mei hono fofonga, pea naʻe keina ʻe he afi mei hono ngutu; naʻe tutu ʻaki ia ʻae fefie.
10 He bowed the heauens also, and came downe, and darkenes was vnder his feete.
Naʻa ne ofeʻi hifo foki ʻae ngaahi langi ʻo ne hāʻele hifo: pea naʻe ʻi hono lalo vaʻe ʻae poʻuli.
11 And he rode vpon Cherub and did flie, and hee was seene vpon the winges of the winde.
Pea naʻa ne heka ki he selupi, pea puna; pea naʻe hā mai ia ʻi he kapakau ʻoe matangi.
12 And hee made darkenesse a Tabernacle round about him, euen the gatherings of waters, and the cloudes of the ayre.
Pea naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae fakapoʻuli ko e fale ke tuʻu takatakai ʻiate ia, ko e ngaahi vai fakapoʻuli, mo e ngaahi ʻao matolu ʻoe langi.
13 At the brightnesse of his presence the coles of fire were kindled.
Ko e meʻa ʻi he uloulo ʻi hono ʻao naʻe tutu ai ʻae fefie ʻoe afi.
14 The Lord thundred from heauen, and the most hie gaue his voyce.
Naʻe mana ʻa Sihova mei he langi, pea naʻe fakaongo atu ʻe he Toko Taha Māʻolunga ʻa hono leʻo.
15 He shot arrowes also, and scattered them: to wit, lightning, and destroyed them.
Pea naʻa ne fanaʻi atu ʻae ngaahi ngahau, mo fakamovetevete ʻakinautolu ko e ʻuhila ke veuveuki kinautolu.
16 The chanels also of the sea appeared, euen the foundations of the worlde were discouered by the rebuking of the Lord, and at the blast of the breath of his nostrels.
Pea naʻe ha hake ʻae tokaʻanga ʻoe tahi, naʻe fakahāhā mai ʻae ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo māmani, ʻi he valokia mai ʻa Sihova, mo e ʻuʻulu mai ʻae mānava ʻo hono fofonga.
17 He sent from aboue, and tooke me: hee drewe me out of many waters.
Naʻa ne fekau mei ʻolunga, ʻo ne puke au; naʻa ne toʻo atu au mei he ngaahi vai lahi;
18 He deliuered me from my strong enemie, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.
Naʻa ne fakamoʻui au mei hoku fili mālohi, pea meiate kinautolu naʻe fehiʻa kiate au: he naʻa nau mālohi fau kiate au.
19 They preuented me in the day of my calamitie, but the Lord was my stay,
Naʻa nau talia au ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻeku tuʻutāmaki, ka ko Sihova ko hoku falalaʻanga.
20 And brought me foorth into a large place: he deliuered me, because he fauoured me.
Naʻa ne ʻomi foki au ki he potu ʻataʻatā: naʻa ne fakamoʻui au, koeʻuhi ko ʻene fiemālie ʻiate au.
21 The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousnesse: according to the purenesse of mine handes he recompensed me.
Naʻe totongi au ʻe Sihova ʻo fakatatau mo ʻeku māʻoniʻoni: ʻo hangē ko e maʻa ʻo hoku nima kuo pehē ʻa ʻene totongi kiate au.
22 For I kept the wayes of the Lord, and did not wickedly against my God.
He kuo tauhi ʻeau ʻae hala ʻo Sihova, pea kuo ʻikai te u mahuʻi ʻi he angakovi mei hoku ʻOtua.
23 For all his lawes were before me, and his statutes: I did not depart therefrom.
He naʻe ʻi hoku ʻao ʻa ʻene ngaahi fono kotoa pē: pea ko ʻene ngaahi fekau naʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu kehe mo ia.
24 I was vpright also towarde him, and haue kept me from my wickednesse.
Naʻaku angatonu foki ʻi hono ʻao, pea kuo u taʻofi au mei heʻeku hia ʻaʻaku.
25 Therefore the Lord did reward me according to my righteousnesse, according to my purenesse before his eyes.
Ko ia kuo totongi au ʻe Sihova ʻo fakatatau mo ʻeku māʻoniʻoni: ʻo fakatatau mo ʻeku maʻa ʻi hono ʻao.
26 With the godly thou wilt shewe thy selfe godly: with the vpright man thou wilt shew thy selfe vpright.
Kiate ia ʻoku ʻaloʻofa ongongofua te ke fakahā ʻe koe ʻae ʻaloʻofa, pea ki he tangata angatonu te ke fakahā koe ko e angatonu.
27 With the pure thou wilt shewe thy selfe pure, and with the frowarde thou wilt shew thy selfe frowarde.
Kiate ia ʻoku angamaʻa te ke fakahā koe ki ai ko e angamaʻa; pea ko ia ʻoku angamamili, te ke fangatua mo ia.
28 Thus thou wilt saue the poore people: but thine eyes are vpon the hautie to humble them.
Pea te ke fakamoʻui ʻae kakai ʻoku mamahi: ka ʻoku ʻafio ʻe ho fofonga ki he kakai fielahi, koeʻuhi ke hifo ʻakinautolu ki lalo.
29 Surely thou art my light, O Lord: and the Lord will lighten my darkenes.
He ko hoku maama ʻa koe, ʻE Sihova pea ʻe fakamaama ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻeku fakapoʻuli.
30 For by thee haue I broken through an hoste, and by my God haue I leaped ouer a wall.
He ko e meʻa ʻiate koe kuo u motuhi ai ha vāhenga tau: pea ko e meʻa ʻi hoku ʻOtua kuo u puna atu ai ʻi ha ʻā.
31 The way of God is vncorrupt: the word of the Lord is tryed in the fire: he is a shield to all that trust in him.
Ko e ʻOtua, ʻoku haohaoa hono hala ʻoʻona: kuo ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova: ko e ungaʻanga ia kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku falala kiate ia.
32 For who is God besides the Lord? and who is mightie, saue our God?
He ko hai ʻoku ʻOtua ka ko Sihova pe? Pea ko hai ko e makatuʻu, ka ko hotau ʻOtua pe?
33 God is my strength in battel, and maketh my way vpright.
Ko e ʻOtua ko hoku mālohi fakamoʻomoʻoni: pea ʻoku ne fakaʻataʻatā ʻa hoku ʻaluʻanga.
34 He maketh my feete like hindes feete, and hath set me vpon mine hie places.
ʻOku ne fakatatau ʻa hoku vaʻe ke hangē ko e [vaʻe ]ʻoe ʻanitelope; pea ʻoku ne fakaheka au ki hoku ngaahi potu māʻolunga.
35 He teacheth mine handes to fight, so that a bowe of brasse is broken with mine armes.
ʻOku ne akoʻi ʻa hoku nima ki he tau; ko ia ʻoku faʻa fesiua ai ha kaufana ukamea ʻi hoku nima.
36 Thou hast also giuen me the shield of thy saluation, and thy louing kindnesse hath caused me to increase.
Kuo ke foaki foki kiate au ʻae fekau ʻo hoʻo fakamoʻui: pea ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo angaʻofa kuo u hoko ai ʻo lahi.
37 Thou hast inlarged my steppes vnder me, and mine heeles haue not slid.
Kuo ke fakaʻataʻatā ʻae ʻaluʻanga ʻi lalo ʻiate au; ko ia naʻe ʻikai hekea ai ʻa hoku vaʻe.
38 I haue pursued mine enemies and destroyed them, and haue not turned againe vntill I had consumed them.
Kuo u tulia ʻa hoku ngaahi fili, mo fakaʻauha kinautolu; pea naʻe ʻikai te u toe tafoki kaeʻoua ke u fakaʻosiʻosi ʻakinautolu.
39 Yea, I haue consumed them and thrust them through, and they shall not arise, but shall fall vnder my feete.
Pea kuo u fakaʻosiʻosi kinautolu, mo fakakafoʻi kinautolu, ke ʻoua naʻa nau faʻa tuʻu hake: ʻio, kuo nau hinga ki hoku lalo vaʻe.
40 For thou hast girded me with power to battell, and them that arose against me, hast thou subdued vnder me.
He ko koe kuo ke fakakofuʻaki au ʻoe mālohi ki he tau: ko kinautolu naʻe tutuʻu hake ke tauʻi au kuo ke fakamapelu hifo kinautolu kiate au.
41 And thou hast giuen me the neckes of mine enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me.
Kuo ke foaki foki kiate au ʻae kia ʻo hoku ngaahi fili, koeʻuhi ke u fakaʻauha kinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate au.
42 They looked about, but there was none to saue them, euen vnto the Lord, but he answered them not.
Naʻa nau sio ka naʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha ke fakamoʻui; pea kia Sihova, ka naʻe ʻikai te ne talia kinautolu.
43 Then did I beate them as small as the dust of the earth: I did treade them flat as the clay of the streete, and did spread them abroad.
Pea naʻaku toki haha fakaikiiki ʻakinautolu ke tatau mo e efu ʻoe kelekele, naʻaku malakaki kinautolu ʻo hangē ko e pelepela ʻoe hala, pea u fakamovetevete atu ʻakinautolu.
44 Thou hast also deliuered me from the contentions of my people: thou hast preserued me to be the head ouer nations: the people which I knewe not, doe serue me.
Kuo ke fakahaofi foki au mei he fetauʻaki ʻa hoku kakai, kuo ke maluʻi au ke ʻulutukua kiate au ʻae hiteni: ʻe tauhi kiate au ha kakai naʻe ʻikai te u ʻiloa.
45 Strangers shalbe in subiection to me: assoone as they heare, they shall obey me.
ʻE fakamoʻulaloa kiate au ʻae fānau ʻoe kakai muli, ʻekinautolu pe: ʻoka nau ka fanongo leva, tenau talangofua kiate au.
46 Strangers shall shrinke away, and feare in their priuie chambers.
ʻE fakaʻaʻau ke mole atu ʻae kakai muli, pea tenau manavahē mei honau toitoiʻanga.
47 Let the Lord liue, and blessed be my strength: and God, euen the force of my saluation be exalted.
ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova; pea ke monūʻia ʻa hoku makatuʻu; pea ke fakamāʻolunga hake ʻae ʻOtua ʻoe makatuʻu ʻo hoku fakamoʻui.
48 It is God that giueth me power to reuenge me, and subdue the people vnder me,
Ko e ʻOtua ia ʻaia ʻoku fai ʻae totongi maʻaku, mo ne fakamoʻulaloa ʻae kakai kiate au,
49 And rescueth me from mine enemies: (thou also hast lift me vp from them that rose against me, thou hast deliuered me from the cruell man.
Mo ne ʻomi au mei he lotolotonga ʻo hoku ngaahi fili: ko koe foki kuo ke hiki hake au ke u māʻolunga hake ʻiate kinautolu naʻe tutuʻu hake kiate au: kuo ke fakamoʻui au mei he tangata ʻoku fai fakamālohi.
50 Therefore I will praise thee, O Lord amog the nations, and will sing vnto thy Name)
Ko ia te u tuku ai ʻae fakafetaʻi kiate koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻi he haʻohaʻonga ʻoe hiteni, pea te u hivaʻaki ʻae fakafetaʻi ki ho huafa.
51 He is the tower of saluation for his King, and sheweth mercie to his anointed, euen to Dauid, and to his seede for euer.
Ko e fale māʻolunga [ia ]ʻoe fakamoʻui maʻa ʻene tuʻi: pea ʻoku [ne ]fakahā ʻae ʻaloʻofa kiate ia kuo ne pani [ʻaki ʻae lolo], kia Tevita, pea ki hono hako, ʻo taʻengata.
