Psalms 22

1 For the Chief Musician; set to Aijeleth hash-Shahar. A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? [why art thou so] far from helping me, [and from] the words of my roaring?

Ki he Takimuʻa ʻi he ʻAilete-Sahala, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. ‌ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ko e hā kuo ke liʻaki ai au? Ko e hā ʻoku ke mamaʻo ai mei he tokoni kiate au, pea mei he ngaahi lea ʻo ʻeku tangi?

2 O my God, I cry in the day-time, but thou answerest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.

‌ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ʻoku ou tangi ʻi he ʻaho, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ke ongoʻi; pea ʻi he pō, ʻoku ʻikai te u longo pē.

3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.

Ka ʻoku ke māʻoniʻoni, ʻa koe ʻoku ke maʻu ʻae ngaahi fakafetaʻi ʻo ʻIsileli.

4 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.

Naʻe falala ʻa ʻemau ngaahi tamai kiate koe: naʻa nau falala, pea naʻa ke fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.

5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not ashamed.

Naʻa nau tangi kiate koe, pea naʻe fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu: naʻa nau falala kiate koe, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau mā.

6 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.

Ka ko e kelemutu au, ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e tangata: ko e manukiʻanga ʻoe tangata, ko e fehiʻanekina ʻe he kakai.

7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, [saying],

Ko kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku mamata kiate au ʻoku nau kata manuki kiate au: ʻoku nau fakalili honau ngutu, mo kalokalo ʻae ʻulu, mo nau pehē,

8 Commit [thyself] unto the LORD; let him deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighteth in him.

“Naʻa ne falala kia Sihova ke ne fakamoʻui ia: tuku ke ne fakamoʻui ia, he naʻa ne fiemālie ʻiate ia.”

9 But thou art he that took me out the womb: thou didst make me trust [when I was] upon my mother’s breasts.

Ka ko koe ia naʻe toʻo au mei he manāva ʻo ʻeku faʻē: naʻa ke fakaʻamanakiʻi au ʻi heʻeku kei ʻi he huhu ʻo ʻeku faʻē.

10 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother’s belly.

Naʻe lī au kiate koe mei he manāva: ko hoku ʻOtua Koe talu ʻeku haʻu mei he manāva ʻo ʻeku faʻē.

11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.

‌ʻOua naʻa ke mamaʻo ʻiate au: he ʻoku ofi ʻae mamahi; he ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ke tokoni.

12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.

Kuo kāpui au ʻe he fanga pulu tangata lahi: kuo ʻāʻi au ʻe he fanga pulu tangata mālohi mei Pesani.

13 They gape upon me with their mouth, [as] a ravening and a roaring lion.

Naʻa nau fakamanga honau ngutu kiate au, ʻo hangē ko e laione fekai mo ngungulu.

14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

Kuo lilingi au ʻo hangē ko e vai, pea kuo homo hoku ngaahi hui kotoa pē: kuo tatau hoku loto mo e pulu: kuo fakamolū ia ʻi hoku loto fatu.

15 My Strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

Kuo mōmoa ʻo ʻosi hoku mālohi ʻo hangē ko e ipu kuo maumau; pea ʻoku piki maʻu hoku ʻelelo ki hoku ʻaoʻi ngutu; pea kuo ke ʻohifo au ki he efu ʻoe mate.

16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of evil-doers have enclosed me; they pierced my hands and my feet.

He kuo kāpui au ʻe he fanga kulī: kuo ʻāʻi au ʻe he fakataha ʻoe ngaahi angakovi: naʻa nau hokaʻi hoku nima mo hoku vaʻe.

17 I may tell all my bones; they look and stare upon me:

‌ʻOku ou faʻa lau hoku hui kotoa pē: ʻoku nau mamata mo siosio pau kiate au.

18 They part my garments among them, and upon my vesture do they cast lots.

‌ʻOku nau tufa hoku ngaahi kofu ʻiate kinautolu, mo fai ʻae talotalo ki hoku pulupulu.

19 But be not thou far off, O LORD: O thou my succour, haste thee to help me.

Kaeʻoua naʻa ke mamaʻo ʻiate au, ʻE Sihova: ʻE hoku mālohi, ke ke fakatoʻotoʻo ke tokoni au.

20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog;

Fakamoʻui hoku laumālie mei he heletā; mo ʻeku moʻui mei he mālohi ʻoe kulī.

21 Save me from the lion’s mouth; yea, from the horns of the wild-oxen thou hast answered me.

Fakamoʻui au mei he ngutu ʻoe laione: he kuo ke ongoʻi au mei he ngaahi nifo ʻoe fanga liimi.

22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.

Te u fakahā ho huafa ki hoku ngaahi kāinga: ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fakataha te u fakafetaʻi kiate koe.

23 Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and stand in awe of him, all ye the seed of Israel.

“ʻAkimoutolu ʻoku manavahē kia Sihova, fakafetaʻi kiate ia; fakaʻapaʻapa kiate ia ʻakimoutolu ko e hako ʻo Sēkope; pea manavahē kiate ia, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ko e hako ʻo ʻIsileli.

24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.

He naʻe ʻikai te ne manuki pe fehiʻa ki he mamahi ʻoe mamahiʻia; pea naʻe ʻikai te ne fufū hono fofonga ʻiate ia; ka ʻi heʻene tangi kiate ia naʻa ne ongoʻi.”

25 Of thee cometh my praise in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

‌ʻE ʻiate koe pe ʻeku fakafetaʻi ʻi he fakataha lahi: te u fakamoʻoni ʻeku ngaahi fuakava ʻi he ʻao ʻokinautolu ʻoku manavahē kiate ia.

26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek after him: let your heart live for ever.

‌ʻE kai ʻe he angamalū ke mākona; ʻe fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ʻakinautolu ʻoku kumi kiate ia: ʻe moʻui taʻengata homou laumālie.

27 All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.

‌ʻE manatu mo tafoki kia Sihova ʻae ngaahi ngataʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani: pea ʻe lotu ʻi ho ʻao ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga.

28 For the kingdom is the LORD’S: and he is the ruler over the nations.

He ʻoku ʻo Sihova ʻae puleʻanga; pea ko e pule ia ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga.

29 All the fat ones of the earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him, even he that cannot keep his soul alive.

Ko kinautolu ʻoku sino ʻi māmani te nau kai mo lotu: ʻe punou ʻi hono ʻao ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu hifo ki he efu: pea ʻoku ʻikai ha taha te ne faʻa fakamoʻui hono laumālie ʻoʻona.

30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be told of the Lord unto the [next] generation.

‌ʻE tauhi ia ʻe ha hako; pea ʻe lau ia ko e toʻutangata kia Sihova,

31 They shall come and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done it.

Te nau haʻu, ʻo fakahā ʻene māʻoniʻoni ki ha kakai ʻe fanauʻi, “Kuo fai ʻe ia ʻae meʻa ni.”
