Psalms 118
1 O give thanks to the LORD; for [he is] good: because his mercy [endureth] for ever.
Mou ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi kia Sihova he ʻoku angalelei ia: koeʻuhi ʻoku tolonga ʻo taʻengata ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa.
2 Let Israel now say, that his mercy [endureth] for ever.
Ke lea ni ʻe ʻIsileli, “ʻOku tolonga ʻo taʻengata ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa.”
3 Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy [endureth] for ever.
Ke lea ni ʻae fale ʻo ʻElone, “ʻOku tolonga ʻo taʻengata ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa.”
4 Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy [endureth] for ever.
Tuku ke lea ni ʻakinautolu ʻoku nau manavahē kia Sihova, ʻoku tolonga ʻo taʻengata ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa.
5 I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, [and set me] in a large place.
Naʻaku ui kia Sihova ʻi he mamahi: pea naʻe talia au ʻe Sihova, mo ne tuku au ki he potu ʻataʻatā.
6 The LORD [is] on my side; I will not fear: what can man do to me?
ʻOku kau maʻaku ʻa Sihova; ʻe ʻikai te u manavahē ko e hā ʻe faʻa fai ʻe he tangata kiate au.
7 The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see [my desire] upon them that hate me.
ʻOku fai maʻaku ʻa Sihova mo kinautolu ʻoku nau tokoni au: ko ia te u mamata ai kiate kinautolu ʻoku nau fehiʻa kiate au.
8 [It is] better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
ʻOku lelei lahi ʻae falala kia Sihova ʻi he falala ki he tangata.
9 [It is] better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.
ʻOku lelei lahi ʻae falala kia Sihova ʻi he falala ki he ngaahi ʻeiki.
10 All nations encompassed me: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them.
Naʻe kāpui au ʻe he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē: ka ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova te u fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu.
11 They encompassed me; yes, they encompassed me: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
Naʻa nau takatakai au; ʻio, naʻa nau kāpui au: ka ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova te u fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu.
12 They encompassed me like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.
Naʻa nau kāpui au ʻo hangē ko e fanga pi; kuo tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e afi ʻi he ʻakau talatala: he te u fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova.
13 Thou hast violently thrust at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me.
Kuo ke tekeʻi mālohi au koeʻuhi ke u hinga ai: ka naʻe tokoni au ʻe Sihova
14 The LORD [is] my strength and song, and is become my salvation.
Ko hoku mālohi ʻa Sihova mo ʻeku hiva, pea kuo hoko ia ko hoku fakamoʻui.
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation [is] in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
Ko e lea ʻoe fiefia mo e fakamoʻui ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻoe angatonu: ʻoku fai mālohi ʻae nima toʻomataʻu ʻo Sihova.
16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD doeth valiantly.
Kuo hiki hake ʻae nima toʻomataʻu ʻo Sihova: ʻoku fai mālohi ʻae nima toʻomataʻu ʻo Sihova.
17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.
ʻE ʻikai te u mate, kae moʻui, ʻo fakahā ʻae ngaahi ngāue ʻa Sihova.
18 The LORD hath chastened me severely: but he hath not given me over to death.
Kuo tautea fakamamahiʻi au ʻe Sihova: ka ʻoku teʻeki ai te ne tukuange au ki he mate.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter them, [and] I will praise the LORD:
Toʻo kiate au ʻae ngaahi matapā ʻoe māʻoniʻoni: te u hū ai, pea u fakamālō kia Sihova:
20 This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter.
Ko e matapā eni ʻo Sihova, ʻaia ʻe hū ai ʻae angatonu.
21 I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation.
Te u fakamālō kiate koe: he kuo ke ongoʻi au, pea kuo ke hoko ko hoku fakamoʻui.
22 The stone [which] the builders refused is become the head [stone] of the corner.
Ko e maka naʻe liʻaki ʻe he kau tufunga kuo hoko ia ko e fungani maka ʻoe tuliki.
23 This is the LORD'S doing; it [is] wonderful in our eyes.
Ko e ngāue eni ʻa Sihova; pea ko e meʻa fakaofo ʻi hotau ʻao.
24 This [is] the day [which] the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Ko e ʻaho eni kuo ngaohi ʻe Sihova; te tau fiefia pea nekeneka ai.
25 Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.
ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fakamoʻui ni: ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke tuku mai ni ʻae monūʻia.
26 Blessed [be] he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you out of the house of the LORD.
Ke monūʻia ia ʻoku haʻu ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova: kuo mau tāpuekina ʻakimoutolu mei he fale ʻo Sihova.
27 God [is] the LORD, who hath shown us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, [even] to the horns of the altar.
Ko e ʻOtua ko Sihova ia, ʻaia kuo ne fakahā ʻae maama kiate kitautolu: mou nonoʻo ʻae feilaulau ʻaki ʻae ngaahi afo ki he ngaahi nifo, ʻoe feilaulauʻanga.
28 Thou [art] my God, and I will praise thee: [thou art] my God, I will exalt thee.
Ko koe ko hoku ʻOtua, pea te u fakamālō kiate koe: ko koe ko hoku ʻOtua, te u fakahikihikiʻi koe.
29 O give thanks to the LORD; for [he is] good: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
Mou ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi kia Sihova he ʻoku angalelei ia: koeʻuhi ʻoku tolonga ʻo taʻengata ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa.
