Psalms 139
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. LORD, thou hast searched me, and known [me].
Ki he Takimuʻa, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. ʻE Sihova, naʻa ke ʻahiʻahiʻi au, pea kuo ke ʻiloʻi au.
2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
ʻOku ke ʻiloʻi ʻeku nofo hifo mo ʻeku tuʻu hake, ʻoku ke ʻiloʻi ʻeku ngaahi mahalo ʻoku kei mamaʻo.
3 Thou searchest out my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
ʻOku ke ʻāʻi hoku hala mo hoku tokotoʻanga, pea ʻoku ke ʻiloʻi hoku hala kotoa pē.
4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.
He ʻoku ʻikai ha lea ʻi hoku ʻelelo, ka ko koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ke ʻiloʻi kotoa pē.
5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
Naʻa ke kāpui au ʻi hoku tuʻa mo hoku ʻao, ʻo ke hilifaki ho nima kiate au.
6 [Such] knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.
Ko e ʻilo pehē ʻoku fakaofo lahi kiate au; ʻoku māʻolunga ia, ʻoku ʻikai te u faʻa lavaʻi ia.
7 Whither shall I from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
Te u ʻalu ki fē mei ho Laumālie? Pe te u hola ki fē mei ho ʻao?
8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in Sheol, behold, thou art there. (Sheol h7585)
Kapau te u ʻalu hake ki he loto langi, ʻoku ke ʻi ai: kapau te u ngaohi hoku mohenga ʻi heli, vakai, ʻoku ke ʻi ai. (Sheol h7585)
9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
Kapau te u toʻo mai ʻae ngaahi kapakau ʻoe pongipongi, pea nofo ʻi he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻoe tahi;
10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
ʻE tataki foki au ʻe ho nima ʻi ai, pea ko ho nima toʻomataʻu te ne puke au.
11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall overwhelm me, and the light about me shall be night;
Kapau te u pehē, Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻufiʻufi au ʻe he poʻuli; ʻe hoko ʻae pō foki ko e maama ʻo takatakai ʻiate au.
12 Even the darkness hideth not from thee, but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike [to thee].
ʻIo, ʻoku ʻikai fakafufū meiate koe ʻe he poʻuli, ka ʻoku malama ʻae pō ʻo hangē ko e ʻaho: ko e poʻuli mo e maama ʻoku na tatau pe kiate koe.
13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.
He kuo ke maʻu hoku kongaloto: naʻa ke ʻufiʻufi au ʻi he manāva ʻo ʻeku faʻē.
14 I will give thanks unto thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: wonderful are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
Te u fakamālō kiate koe; he ʻoku fakamanavahē mo fakaofo hoku ngaohi: ʻoku fakaofo hoʻo ngaahi ngāue; pea ʻoku ʻilo pau ki ai ʻe hoku laumālie.
15 My frame was not hidden from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
Naʻe ʻikai fufū ʻa hoku sino meiate koe, ʻi he ngaohi au ʻi he lilo, mo teuteu lelei au ʻi he ngaahi potu māʻulalo ʻoe fonua.
16 Thine eyes did see mine unperfect substance, and in thy book were all [my members] written, which day by day were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
Naʻe ʻafio ho fofonga ki hoku sino ʻoku teʻeki ai fakaʻosi; pea naʻe tohi ʻi hoʻo tohi hoku ngaahi kupuʻi sino kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe fakatupu fakaholo, ʻi he teʻeki ai ha kupu ʻe taha.
17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
ʻE ʻOtua, hono ʻikai mahuʻinga ʻa hoʻo ngaahi fakakaukau kiate au! ʻOku fēfē nai hono lahi ʻo ia!
18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.
Kapau te u lau ia, ʻoku lahi hake hono lau ʻi he ʻoneʻone: ʻo kau ka ʻā hake ʻoku ou kei ʻiate koe.
19 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloodthirsty men.
ʻE ʻOtua, ko e moʻoni te ke tāmateʻi ʻae angahala: ko ia mou ʻalu ʻiate au, ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau tangata pani toto.
20 For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take [thy name] in vain.
He ʻoku nau lea kovi ʻi he angatuʻu kiate koe, pea ko ho ngaahi fili ʻoku nau takuanoa [ho huafa].
21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?
ʻE Sihova, ʻikai ʻoku ou fehiʻa kiate kinautolu ʻoku nau fehiʻa kiate koe? Pea ʻikai ʻoku ou mamahi ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku nau tuʻu hake ʻo angatuʻu kiate koe?
22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.
ʻOku ou fehiʻa kiate kinautolu ʻaki ʻae fehiʻa ʻaupito: ʻoku ou lau ʻakinautolu ko hoku ngaahi fili.
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me and know my thoughts:
ʻE ʻOtua, ʻafioʻi au, pea ke ʻiloʻi hoku loto: ʻahiʻahiʻi au, mo ke ʻiloʻi ʻeku ngaahi mahalo:
24 And see if there be any way of wickedness in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
Pea ke vakai pe ʻoku ai ha hala kovi ʻiate au, pea ke tataki au ʻi he hala taʻengata.
