< Psalms 146 >

1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.
Mou fakamālō kia Sihova. Fakamālō kia Sihova, ʻE hoku laumālie.
2 While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.
Te u fakamālō kia Sihova ʻi heʻeku kei moʻui: te u hiva fakamālō ki hoku ʻOtua ʻi he lolotonga ʻo ʻeku moʻui.
3 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.
‌ʻOua naʻa mou falala ki he ngaahi ʻeiki, pe ki he foha ʻoe tangata, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai ha fakamoʻui ʻiate ia.
4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.
‌ʻOku mole atu ʻene mānava, pea ʻoku foki ia ki he kelekele; ʻoku mole ai ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻene ngaahi mahalo.
5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:
‌ʻOku monūʻia ia ʻaia ʻoku ne maʻu ʻae ʻOtua ʻo Sēkope ko hono tokoni, pea ko ʻene ʻamanaki lelei ʻoku ʻia Sihova ko hono ʻOtua:
6 Which made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is; which keepeth truth for ever:
‌ʻAia naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae langi, mo māmani, ʻae tahi mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai: pea ʻoku ne tauhi ʻae moʻoni ʻo lauikuonga:
7 Which executeth judgment for the oppressed; which giveth food to the hungry: the LORD looseth the prisoners;
‌ʻAia ʻoku ne fai ʻae fakamaau koeʻuhi ko e kakai fakamālohia: ʻoku ne foaki ʻae meʻakai ki he fiekaia. ʻOku vete ʻe Sihova ʻae kau pōpula:
8 The LORD openeth [the eyes of] the blind; the LORD raiseth up them that are bowed down; the LORD loveth the righteous;
‌ʻOku fakaʻā ʻe Sihova ʻae kui: ʻoku fokotuʻu ʻe Sihova ʻakinautolu kuo mapelu ki lalo: ʻoku ʻofa ʻa Sihova ki he angatonu:
9 The LORD preserveth the strangers; he upholdeth the fatherless and widow; but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.
‌ʻOku fakamoʻui ʻe Sihova ʻae kakai muli; ʻoku ne fakafiemālieʻi ʻae tamai mate mo e fefine kuo mate hono husepāniti: ka ko e hala ʻoe angahala ʻoku ne fulihi ia.
10 The LORD shall reign for ever, thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.
‌ʻE pule ʻa Sihova ʻo taʻengata, ʻio, ko ho ʻOtua, ʻE Saione, ʻi he ngaahi toʻutangata kotoa pē. Mou fakamālō kia Sihova.
