< Psalms 149 >
1 Praise ye the Lord. Sing ye vnto the Lord a newe song: let his prayse be heard in the Congregation of Saints.
Mou fakamālō kia Sihova. Hiva kia Sihova ʻaki ʻae hiva foʻou, mo e fakamālō kiate ia ʻi he fakataha ʻoe kakai māʻoniʻoni.
2 Let Israel reioyce in him that made him, and let ye children of Zion reioyce in their King.
Ke fiefia ʻa ʻIsileli ʻiate ia naʻa ne ngaohi ia: ke fiefia ʻae fānau ʻa Saione ʻi honau Tuʻi.
3 Let them prayse his Name with the flute: let them sing prayses vnto him with the timbrell and harpe.
Kenau fakamālō ki hono huafa ʻi he meʻe: kenau hiva fakamālō kiate ia ʻaki ʻae lali iiki mo e haʻape.
4 For the Lord hath pleasure in his people: he will make the meeke glorious by deliuerance.
He ʻoku fiefia ʻa Sihova ʻi hono kakai te ne teuteu ʻae angamalū ʻaki ʻae fakamoʻui.
5 Let ye Saints be ioyfull with glorie: let them sing loud vpon their beddes.
Ke fiefia ʻae kakai māʻoniʻoni ʻi he nāunau: kenau hiva kalanga, ʻi honau ngaahi mohenga.
6 Let the high Actes of God bee in their mouth, and a two edged sword in their hands,
Ke ʻi honau ngutu ʻae fakamālō lahi ki he ʻOtua, pea ʻi honau nima ʻae heletā ʻoku fakatoumata;
7 To execute vengeance vpon the heathen, and corrections among the people:
Ke ʻatu ʻae totongi ki he hiteni, mo e ngaahi tautea ki he kakai:
8 To binde their Kings in chaines, and their nobles with fetters of yron,
Ke haʻisia honau ngaahi tuʻi ʻaki ʻae ukamea fihifihi, mo honau houʻeiki ʻaki ʻae ngaahi haʻi ukamea;
9 That they may execute vpon them the iudgement that is written: this honour shall be to all his Saintes. Prayse ye the Lord.
Ke fai kiate kinautolu ʻae fakamaau kuo tohi: kuo pehē ʻae hakeakiʻi ʻo ʻene kakai māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē. Mou fakamālō kia Sihova.
