Psalms 91

1 He who is dwelling In the secret place of the Most High, Habitually lodges in the shade of the Mighty,

Ko ia ʻoku nofo ʻi he potu lilo ʻi he fungani māʻolunga, ʻe nofomaʻu ia he malumalu ʻoe Māfimafi.

2 He is saying of YHWH, “My refuge, and my bulwark, my God, I trust in Him,”

Te u pehē, “Ko Sihova, ko hoku hūfanga ia mo ʻeku kolo: ko hoku ʻOtua te u falala kiate ia.”

3 For He delivers you from the snare of a fowler, From a calamitous pestilence.

Ko e moʻoni te ne fakamoʻui koe mei he hele ʻae tangata tauhele, pea mei he mahaki fakaʻauha.

4 He covers you over with His pinion, And under His wings you trust, His truth [is] a shield and buckler.

Te ne ʻōʻōfaki koe ʻaki hono fulufulu, pea te ke falala ki hono lalo kapakau: ko ʻene moʻoni ko ho fakaū mo ho pā ia.

5 You are not afraid of fear by night, Of arrow that flies by day,

‌ʻE ʻikai te ke manavahē koeʻuhi ko e meʻa fakailifia ʻi he pō; pe koeʻuhi ko e ngahau ʻoku puna atu ʻi he ʻaho;

6 Of pestilence that walks in thick darkness, Of destruction that destroys at noon,

Pe koeʻuhi ko e mahaki lahi ʻoku ʻeveʻeva ʻi he poʻuli; pe koeʻuhi ko e fakaʻauha ʻoku fakaʻosiʻosi ʻi he hoʻatā.

7 One thousand fall at your side, And a myriad at your right hand, [But] it does not come near to you.

‌ʻE tō ʻae toko afe ʻi ho tafaʻaki, pea ko e toko mano ʻi ho nima toʻomataʻu ka ʻe ʻikai hoko ia ʻo ofi kiate koe.

8 But with your eyes you look, And you see the reward of the wicked,

Ka te ke vakai ʻo mamata ʻaki ho mata ki he totongi ʻoe angahala.

9 (For You, O YHWH, [are] my refuge), You made the Most High your habitation.

Koeʻuhi kuo ke fili ʻa Sihova ʻaia ko hoku hūfanga, ʻio, ko e fungani māʻolunga ko ho nofoʻanga:

10 Evil does not happen to you, And a plague does not come near your tent,

‌ʻE ʻikai tō ha kovi kiate koe, pea ʻe ʻikai hoko ha mamahi fakaʻauha ke ofi ki ho nofoʻanga.

11 For He charges His messengers for you, To keep you in all your ways,

He te ne fekau ʻene kau ʻāngelo kenau vakai koe, ke tauhi koe ʻi ho ngaahi hala kotoa pē.

12 On the hands they bear you up, Lest you strike your foot against a stone.

Tenau hapai hake koe ʻi he nima, telia naʻa tūkia ho vaʻe ki ha maka.

13 You tread on lion and cobra, You trample young lion and dragon.

Te ke molomoloki ʻae laione mo e ngata: ko e laione mui mo e talākoni te ke malaki hifo ia.

14 Because he has delighted in Me, I also deliver him—I set him on high, Because he has known My Name.

“Koeʻuhi kuo ne tuku ʻene ʻofa kiate au, ko ia te u fakamoʻui ia: te u fokotuʻu ia ke māʻolunga, koeʻuhi kuo ne ʻiloʻi hoku huafa.

15 He calls Me, and I answer him, I [am] with him in distress, I deliver him, and honor him.

Te ne ui kiate au, pea te u talia ia: te u ʻiate ia ʻi he mamahi; te u fakamoʻui ia, pea hakeakiʻi ia.

16 I satisfy him with [the] length of [his] days, And I cause him to look on My salvation!

Te u fakafiemālieʻi ʻaki ia ʻae moʻui fuoloa, pea fakahā kiate ia ʻeku fakamoʻui.”
