Psalms 36
1 [For the Chief Musician. By David, the servant of YHWH.] Transgression speaks to the wicked within his heart. There is no fear of God before his eyes.
Ki he Takimuʻa, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova. ʻOku lea ʻae talangataʻa ʻae angakovi ki hoku loto, “ʻoku ʻikai ha manavahē ki he ʻOtua ʻi hono ʻao.”
2 For he flatters himself in his own eyes, too much to detect and hate his sin.
He ʻoku ne fakaholoholoʻi ʻe ia ia ʻi hono ʻao, ke ʻoua ke hoko ʻo hā mai ʻae kovi ʻo ʻene hia.
3 The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good.
Ko e ngaahi lea ʻa hono ngutu ko e kovi mo e kākā: kuo tuku ʻe ia ʻene poto mo e fai lelei.
4 He plots iniquity on his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good. He doesn't abhor evil.
ʻOku ne fifili ki he pauʻu ʻi hono mohenga; ʻoku ne fokotuʻu ʻe ia ia ʻi he hala ʻoku ʻikai lelei; ʻoku ʻikai te ne fehiʻa ki he kovi.
5 Your loving kindness, YHWH, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
Ko hoʻo ʻaloʻofa, ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi langi; pea ʻoku aʻu hake hoʻo angatonu ki he ngaahi ʻao.
6 Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. YHWH, you preserve man and animal.
Ko hoʻo māʻoniʻoni ʻoku hangē ko e ngaahi moʻunga ʻoe ʻOtua; ko hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau ko e fuʻu moana; ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ke fakamoʻui ʻae tangata mo e manu.
7 How precious is your loving kindness, God. The descendants of Adam take refuge under the shadow of your wings.
ʻE ʻOtua, hono ʻikai mahuʻinga fau ʻa hoʻo ʻaloʻofa! Ko ia ʻoku falala ai ʻae fānau ʻae tangata ki he malu ʻo ho kapakau.
8 They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house. You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures.
Te nau fonu lahi ʻi he mahu lelei ʻo ho fale; pea te ke fakainu ʻakinautolu ʻi he vaitafe ʻo hoʻo fiemālie.
9 For with you is the spring of life. In your light shall we see light.
He ʻoku ʻiate koe ʻae matavai ʻoe moʻui: temau mamata ʻi hoʻo maama ki he maama.
10 Oh continue your loving kindness to those who know you, your righteousness to the upright in heart.
Ke tuʻumaʻu pe hoʻo ʻaloʻofa kiate kinautolu ʻoku nau ʻilo koe; mo hoʻo māʻoniʻoni ki he angatonu ʻi loto.
11 Do not let the foot of pride come against me. Do not let the hand of the wicked drive me away.
ʻOua naʻa hoko kiate au ʻae vaʻe ʻoe laukau, pea ʻoua naʻa hiki au ʻe he nima ʻoe angakovi.
12 There evildoers are fallen. They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.
Kuo hinga ʻi ai ʻae kau fai kovi: kuo lī ki lalo ʻakinautolu, pea ʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa tuʻu hake.
