< Psalms 132 >

1 A Song of degrees. LORD, remember David [and] all his afflictions;
Ko e Hiva ʻae ʻalu hake. ‌ʻE Sihova, ke ke manatu kia Tevita, mo ʻene mamahi kotoa pē:
2 How he swore to the LORD, [and] vowed to the mighty [God] of Jacob;
‌ʻA ʻene fuakava kia Sihova, mo ʻene lea fakapapau ki he ʻOtua mālohi ʻa Sēkope;
3 Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed;
“Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu ki hoku fale nofoʻanga, pe ʻalu hake ki hoku mohenga;
4 I will not give sleep to my eyes, [or] slumber to my eyelids,
‌ʻE ʻikai te u tuku ʻae mohe ki hoku mata, pe ko e tulemohe ki hoku laumata,
5 Until I find a place for the LORD, a habitation for the mighty [God] of Jacob.
Kaeʻoua ke u ʻilo ha potu moʻo Sihova, ko e ʻafioʻanga ki he ʻOtua mālohi ʻo Sēkope.”
6 Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah: we found it in the fields of the wood.
Vakai, naʻa tau fanongo ki ai ʻi ʻEfalata: pea naʻa tau ʻilo ia ʻi he ngaahi ngoue ʻoe vao.
7 We will go into his tabernacles: we will worship at his footstool.
“Te tau hū ki hono ngaahi fale fehikitaki: te tau lotu ʻi hono tuʻunga vaʻe.”
8 Arise, O LORD, into thy rest; thou, and the ark of thy strength.
Tuʻu hake, ʻE Sihova, ki ho mālōlōʻanga; ʻa koe, mo e puha ʻoe fuakava ʻo ho mālohi.
9 Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let thy saints shout for joy.
Ke kofuʻaki ʻe hoʻo kau taulaʻeiki ʻae angatonu; pea ke kalanga ʻi he fiefia ʻa hoʻo kakai māʻoniʻoni.
10 For thy servant David's sake turn not away the face of thy anointed.
Koeʻuhi ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita, ʻoua naʻa ke fakatafoki ʻae mata ʻo hoʻo pani.
11 The LORD hath sworn [in] truth to David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy throne.
Kuo fuakava ʻa Sihova ʻi he moʻoni kia Tevita; ʻe ʻikai te ne liliu mei ai; “Te u fokotuʻu ki ho nofoʻa ʻae fua ʻo ho sino.
12 If thy children will keep my covenant and my testimony that I shall teach them; their children also shall sit upon thy throne for ever.
Kapau ʻe fai ʻe hoʻo fānau ki heʻeku fuakava mo ʻeku fakamoʻoni ʻaia te u ako kiate kinautolu, ʻe nofo foki ʻenau fānau ʻi ho nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki ʻo lauikuonga.”
13 For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired [it] for his habitation.
He kuo fili ʻe Sihova ʻa Saione; kuo ne finangalo ki ai ko hono ʻafioʻanga.
14 This [is] my rest for ever: here will I dwell; for I have desired it.
“Ko hoku mālōlōʻanga eni ʻo taʻengata: te u nofo ʻi heni; he naʻaku finangalo ki ai.
15 I will abundantly bless her provision: I will satisfy her poor with bread.
Ko e moʻoni te u tāpuaki lahi hono meʻakai: te u fakamākona ʻa hono kau masiva ʻaki ʻae mā.
16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.
Te u fakakofu foki ʻene kau taulaʻeiki ʻaki ʻae fakamoʻui: pea ko ʻene kau māʻoniʻoni tenau kalanga ʻo leʻo lahi ʻi he fiefia.
17 There will I make the horn of David to bud, I have ordained a lamp for my anointed.
Te u ngaohi ke moto ai ʻae nifo ʻo Tevita: kuo u tuʻutuʻuni ʻae maama ʻa ʻeku pani.
18 His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.
Te u fakakofuʻaki hono ngaahi fili ʻae mā: ka ʻe maʻuiʻui ʻa hono tatā ʻiate ia.”
