Psalms 32
1 “A psalm of David.” Happy is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is pardoned!
Ko e Saame akonaki ʻa Tevita. ʻOku monūʻia ia ʻaia kuo fakamolemole ʻa ʻene talangataʻa, pea kuo ʻufiʻufi ʻene angahala.
2 Happy the man to whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no guile!
ʻOku monūʻia ʻae tangata ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai lau ki ai ʻe Sihova ha hia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha kākā ʻi hono laumālie.
3 While I kept silence, my bones were wasted, By reason of my groaning all the day long.
ʻI heʻeku fakalongo pē, naʻe fakaʻaʻau ʻo motuʻa hoku ngaahi hui ʻi heʻeku tangi ʻi he ʻaho kotoa.
4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me; My moisture dried up, as in summer's drought.
He naʻe mamafa ho nima kiate au ʻi he ʻaho mo e pō: naʻe liliu hoku huhuʻa ko e laʻāina ʻoe faʻahitaʻu mafana. (Sila)
5 At length I acknowledged to thee my sin, And did not hide my iniquity. I said, “I will confess my transgression to the LORD;” And thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin! (Pause)
Naʻaku vete ʻeku angahala kiate koe, pea naʻe ʻikai te u fufū ʻeku hia. Naʻaku pehē, te u vete ʻeku ngaahi talangataʻa kia Sihova: pea naʻa ke fakamolemole ʻae hia ʻo ʻeku angahala. (Sila)
6 Therefore shall every pious man pray to thee, while thou mayst be found; Surely the floods of great waters shall not come near him.
Ko ia ʻe lotu ai kiate koe ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku anga fakaʻotua ʻi he kuonga ʻe ʻiloʻi ai koe: ko e moʻoni ʻi he ʻoho mai ʻoe ngaahi vai lahi ʻe ʻikai tenau aʻu ʻo ofi kiate ia.
7 Thou art my hiding-place; thou preservest me from trouble; Thou compassest me about with songs of deliverance. (Pause)
Ko koe ko hoku toitoiʻanga; te ke fakamoʻui au mei he mamahi; pea te ke kāpui ʻaki au ʻae ngaahi hiva ʻoe fakamoʻui. (Sila)
8 I will instruct thee, and show thee the way thou shouldst go; I will give thee counsel, and keep mine eye upon thee.
Ko au te u fakapotoʻi koe mo akonakiʻi koe ʻi he hala ʻaia te ke ʻalu ai: te u fakahinohino koe ʻaki hoku mata.
9 Be ye not like the horse and the mule, which have no understanding, Whose mouths must be pressed with the bridle and curb, Because they will not come near thee!
ʻOua naʻa mou hangē ko e hoosi mo e miuli, ʻoku masiva ʻi he ʻilo: ʻaia ʻoku taʻofi ʻaki honau ngutu ʻae ukamea mo e noʻo, koeʻuhi ke nau haʻu ʻo ofi kiate koe.
10 The wicked hath many sorrows; But he that trusteth in the LORD is encompassed with mercies.
ʻE hoko ʻae ngaahi mamahi lahi ki he kakai angakovi: ka ko ia ʻoku falala kia Sihova, ʻe kāpui ʻaki ia ʻae ʻaloʻofa.
11 Rejoice in the LORD, and be glad, ye righteous; Shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart!
Mou fiefia ʻia Sihova, pea nekeneka, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku māʻoniʻoni: pea kalanga ʻi he fiefia, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku angatonu ʻi loto.
