1 Ngizakuthanda, Nkosi, mandla ami.
Ki he Takimuʻa ko e Saame ʻa Tevita, ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻe lea ʻaki kia Sihova ʻae ngaahi lea ʻoe hiva ni, ʻi he ʻaho ko ia naʻe fakamoʻui ia ʻe Sihova mei he nima ʻo hono ngaahi fili kotoa pē, pea mei he nima ʻo Saula: ʻo pehē, Te u ʻofa kiate koe, ʻE Sihova, ko ʻeku mālohi.
2 INkosi ilidwala lami, lenqaba yami, lomkhululi wami; uNkulunkulu wami, idwala lami, engizaphephela kulo, isihlangu sami, lophondo losindiso lwami, inqaba yami ephakemeyo.
Ko hoku makatuʻu ʻa Sihova, mo ʻeku kolo, mo hoku fakamoʻui; ko hoku ʻOtua, ko hoku mālohi, ʻaia te u falala ki ai; ko hoku fakaū, mo e mālohi ʻo ʻeku moʻui, mo hoku hūfanga māʻolunga.
3 Ngizabiza iNkosi edumisekayo, ngakho ngizasindiswa ezitheni zami.
Te u ui kia Sihova, ʻaia ʻoku ngali mo ia ʻae fakafetaʻi: ko ia te u moʻui ai mei hoku ngaahi fili.
4 Izibopho zokufa zangizingelezela, lezikhukhula zobubi zangethusa.
Naʻe kāpui au ʻe he ngaahi mamahi ʻoe mate. pea naʻe fakamanavahēʻi au ʻe he lōmaki mai ʻoe kau tangata angakovi.
5 Izibopho zesihogo zangigombolozela, imijibila yokufa yayiphambi kwami. (Sheol h7585)
Naʻe kāpui au ʻe he ngaahi mamahi ʻo hētesi: naʻe talia au ʻe he ngaahi tauhele ʻoe mate. (Sheol h7585)
6 Ekuhluphekeni kwami ngayibiza iNkosi, ngakhala kuNkulunkulu wami; walizwa ilizwi lami esethempelini lakhe, lokukhala kwami kweza phambi kwakhe, endlebeni zakhe.
‌ʻI heʻeku mamahi naʻaku ui kia Sihova, mo tangi ki hoku ʻOtua: pea ne ongoʻi hoku leʻo mei hono faletapu, pea naʻe aʻu atu ʻeku tangi ki hono ʻao, ʻio, ki hono fofonga.
7 Khona umhlaba wazamazama, wanyikinyeka, lezisekelo zezintaba zaqhaqhazela, zazamazama, ngoba wayethukuthele.
Naʻe ngalulu ai ʻa māmani ʻo tetetete; naʻe ngaue mo lulululu foki ʻae tuʻunga ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga, koeʻuhi ko ʻene houhau.
8 Kwenyuka intuthu emakhaleni akhe, lomlilo ophuma emlonyeni wakhe waqothula; amalahle avuthiswa yiwo.
Naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae kohu ʻi hono houhau, pea naʻe keina ʻe he afi mei hono ngutu: naʻe tutuʻaki ia ʻae fefie.
9 Wasekhothamisa amazulu, wehlela phansi, lomnyama onzima wawungaphansi kwenyawo zakhe.
Naʻa ne ofeʻi hifo foki ʻae ngaahi langi, ʻo hāʻele hifo: pea naʻe ʻi hono lalo vaʻe ʻae poʻuli.
10 Wasegada ikherubhi, waphapha, wandiza phezu kwempiko zomoya.
Naʻe heka ia ki he selupi, pea hāʻele ia: ʻio, naʻe hāʻele ia ʻi he ngaahi kapakau ʻoe matangi.
11 Wamisa umnyama waba yindawo yakhe yensitha, idumba lakhe inhlangothi zonke zakhe, amanzi amnyama, amayezi amnyama omkhathi.
Naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae poʻuli ko hono fakalilolilo: ko hono ʻafioʻanga naʻe kāpui ia ʻe he vai fakapoʻuli mo e ngaahi ʻao matolu ʻoe langi.
12 Ekukhazimuleni okuphambi kwakhe amayezi akhe amnyama edlula, isiqhotho lamalahle omlilo.
‌ʻI he ulo mei hono ʻao naʻe mole atu ai ʻa ʻene ngaahi ʻao matolu, ʻae ʻuha maka mo e ngaahi malalaʻi afi.
13 INkosi yasiduma emazulwini, oPhezukonke wazwakalisa ilizwi lakhe, isiqhotho lamalahle omlilo.
Naʻe mana foki ʻe Sihova ʻi he ngaahi langi, pea fakahā hono leʻo ʻe he Fungani Māʻolunga; ko e ʻuha maka mo e ngaahi malalaʻi afi.
14 Yasithuma imitshoko yayo, yabachitha; lemibane eminengi, yabaphaphathekisa.
‌ʻIo, naʻa ne fana atu ʻene ngaahi ngahau, pea veteki ʻakinautolu; pea ne fana ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻuhila, ʻo veuveuki ʻakinautolu.
15 Khona kwabonakala imisele yamanzi, kwembulwa izisekelo zomhlaba ekusoleni kwakho, Nkosi, ekuvutheleni komoya wamakhala akho.
Naʻe toki hā ai ʻae ngaahi tafeʻanga ʻoe vai, pea fakahā ai ʻae ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo māmani ʻi ho houhau, ʻE Sihova, ʻi he matangi ʻoe mānava ʻo ho houhau.
16 Yathuma iphezulu, yangibamba, yangenyula emanzini amanengi.
Naʻa ne fekau mei ʻolunga, naʻa ne toʻo au, naʻa ne toʻo hake au mei he ngaahi vai lahi.
17 Yangophula esitheni sami esilamandla, lakibo abangizondayo, ngoba babelamandla kulami.
Naʻa ne fakahaofi au mei hoku fili
18 Babephambi kwami osukwini lwenhlupheko yami, kodwa iNkosi yaba yisisekelo sami.
Naʻa nau fakatangaʻi au ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻeku tuʻutāmaki: ka ko hoku tokoni ʻa Sihova.
19 Yangikhuphela endaweni ebanzi, yangikhulula ngoba yayithokoza ngami.
Naʻa ne ʻomi au ki he potu ʻataʻatā lahi; naʻa ne fakahaofi au, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fiemālie ʻiate au.
20 INkosi yangivuza njengokulunga kwami; yangibuyisela njengokuhlanzeka kwezandla zami.
Naʻe totongi ʻe Sihova kiate au ʻo fakatatau ki heʻeku māʻoniʻoni; ʻo fakatatau ki he maʻa ʻa hoku nima kuo ne totongi kiate au.
21 Ngoba ngizilondolozile indlela zeNkosi, kangisukanga kuNkulunkulu wami ngenkohlakalo.
He naʻaku tauhi ʻae ngaahi hala ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu ʻi he angakovi mei hoku ʻOtua.
22 Ngoba zonke izahlulelo zayo zaziphambi kwami, lezimiso zayo kangiziphambulanga kimi.
He naʻe ʻi hoku ʻao ʻa ʻene ngaahi fakamaau kotoa pē, pea naʻe ʻikai te u liʻaki ʻene ngaahi fekau ʻiate au.
23 Njalo ngangiqondile kuyo, ngizinqandile ebubini bami.
Pea naʻaku angatonu foki ʻi hono ʻao, pea ne u taʻofi au mei heʻeku hia.
24 Ngakho iNkosi ingibuyisele njengokulunga kwami, njengokuhlanzeka kwezandla zami phambi kwamehlo ayo.
Ko ia kuo totongi ai au ʻe Sihova ʻo fakatatau ki heʻeku māʻoniʻoni, pea fakatatau ki he maʻa ʻa hoku nima ʻi hono ʻao.
25 Kolesihawu uzaziveza ulesihawu; koqotho uzaziveza uqotho;
‌ʻI he kakai loto ʻofa te ke fakahā koe ko e ʻaloʻofa; ki he tangata angatonu te ke fakahā koe ko e angatonu;
26 kohlanzekileyo uzaziveza uhlanzekile; lakophambukileyo uzaziveza uphambukile.
Ki he māʻoniʻoni te ke fakahā koe ʻae māʻoniʻoni; pea ki he tangata angatuʻu temo fekuki mo ia.
27 Ngoba wena uzabasindisa abantu abahlutshwayo; kodwa amehlo aphakemeyo uzawehlisela phansi.
He ko koe te ke fakamoʻui ʻae kakai mamahi: ka te ke ʻohifo ki lalo ʻae mata fielahi.
28 Ngoba wena uzalumathisa isibane sami; iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wami, izakhanyisa ubumnyama bami.
Pea te ke tutu ʻeku maama: ʻo huluʻaki ʻeku fakapoʻuli ʻe Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua.
29 Ngoba ngawe ngigijimile ngadabula phakathi kwebutho, langoNkulunkulu wami ngeqe umthangala.
He ko e meʻa ʻiate koe naʻaku halaua ʻae tau ʻo hao; pea ʻi hoku ʻOtua ne u puna kituʻa ʻi he ʻā maka.
30 UNkulunkulu, indlela yakhe iphelele; ilizwi leNkosi lihloliwe; uyisihlangu kubo bonke abaphephela kuye.
Pea ko e ʻOtua, ʻoku haohaoa hono hala: ʻoku ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova: ko e fakaū ia kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku falala kiate ia.
31 Ngoba ngubani onguNkulunkulu ngaphandle kweNkosi? Njalo ngubani olidwala ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu wethu?
He ko hai ʻoku ʻOtua ka ko Sihova pē? Pe ko hai ʻae makatuʻu ka ko hotau ʻOtua pē?
32 NguNkulunkulu ongibhincisa amandla, owenza indlela yami iphelele.
Ko e ʻOtua ia ʻoku ne nonoʻo ʻaki au ʻae mālohi, ʻo fakahaohaoa hoku ʻaluʻanga.
33 Owenza inyawo zami zibe njengezezimpala, wangimisa ezingqongeni zami.
‌ʻOku ne ngaohi hoku vaʻe ke hangē ko e vaʻe ʻoe hainiti, ʻo ne fokotuʻu au ki hoku ngaahi potu māʻolunga.
34 Ofundisela izandla zami impi, ukuze idandili lethusi ligotshiswe zingalo zami.
‌ʻOku ne akonakiʻi hoku nima ke tau, ko ia ʻoku fesiʻi ai ʻe hoku nima ʻae kaufana ukamea.
35 Unginikile lesihlangu sosindiso lwakho, lesandla sakho sokunene singisekele, lobumnene bakho bungikhulisile.
Pea kuo ke foaki foki kiate au ʻae fakaū ʻo hoʻo fakamoʻui: pea kuo poupou hake au ʻe ho nima toʻomataʻu, pea ʻi hoʻo angamalū kuo ke hakeakiʻi au.
36 Wenze zaba banzi izinyathelo zami ngaphansi kwami, ukuze inyawo zami zingatsheleli.
Kuo ke fakaʻataʻatā hoku ʻaluʻanga ʻi lalo ʻiate au, ko ia naʻe ʻikai hekea ai hoku vaʻe.
37 Ngixotshene lezitha zami, ngazifica, kangibuyanga ngaze ngaziqeda.
Naʻaku tuli hoku ngaahi fili ʻo maʻu ʻakinautolu: pea naʻe ʻikai te u toe foki kaeʻoua ke ʻauha ʻakinautolu.
38 Ngazigwaza, zaze zehluleka ukuvuka, zawa ngaphansi kwenyawo zami.
Kuo nau makafokafo ʻiate au, ko ia naʻe ʻikai ai tenau faʻa tuʻu hake: kuo nau tō ki hoku lalo vaʻe.
39 Ngoba ungibhincise amandla kusenzelwa impi, wabakhothamisela phansi kwami abangivukelayo.
He naʻa ke nonoʻo ʻaki au ʻae mālohi ki he tau: kuo ke fakavaivai ki lalo ʻiate au ʻakinautolu naʻe tuʻu hake kiate au.
40 Unginike intamo yezitha zami, labo abangizondayo ngababhubhisa.
Pea kuo ke foaki foki kiate au ʻae kia ʻo hoku ngaahi fili; koeʻuhi ke u fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate au.
41 Bakhala, kodwa engekho umsindisi; eNkosini, kodwa kayibaphendulanga.
Naʻa nau tangi, ka naʻe ʻikai ha taha ke fakamoʻui: ʻio, kia Sihova, ka naʻe ʻikai te ne talia ʻakinautolu.
42 Ngasengibacholisisa njengothuli phambi komoya, ngabachitha njengodaka lwezitalada.
Pea ne u toki tali ʻakinautolu ʻo momosi ʻo hangē ko e efu ʻoku vilingia ʻi he matangi: naʻaku lī ʻakinautolu kituʻa ʻo hangē ko e pelepela ʻi he ngaahi hala.
43 Wangikhulula ekuphikiseni kwabantu, wangimisa ngaba yinhloko yezizwe; abantu engangingabazi bangisebenzela.
Kuo ke fakamoʻui au mei he ngaahi fekeʻikeʻi ʻoe kakai; pea kuo ke ngaohi au ko e ʻulu ki he hiteni: ko e kakai naʻe ʻikai te u ʻiloʻi te nau tauhi au.
44 Bangenela ukuzwa ngendlebe bazangilalela, abezizweni bazazithoba kimi ngokuzenzisa.
‌ʻOka nau ka fanongo kiate au, te nau talangofua leva kiate au: ko e kau muli te nau fakavaivai ʻakinautolu kiate au.
45 Abezizweni bazabuna, baphume ezinqabeni zabo bethuthumela.
‌ʻE fakaʻaʻau ʻo ʻosi ʻae ngaahi muli, pea te nau manavahē mei honau ngaahi potu lilo.
46 INkosi iyaphila; njalo kalidunyiswe idwala lami, kaphakanyiswe uNkulunkulu wosindiso lwami.
‌ʻOku moʻui ʻa Sihova; pea fakafetaʻi ki hoku makatuʻu; pea tuku ke hakeakiʻi ʻae ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku moʻui.
47 UNkulunkulu onginika impindiselo, lowehlisela izizwe ngaphansi kwami;
Ko e ʻOtua ia ʻoku langomia au, ʻo ne fakavaivai ʻae kakai kiate au.
48 ongikhulula ezitheni zami; yebo, phezu kwabangivukelayo wangiphakamisa, emuntwini wodlakela wangikhulula.
‌ʻOku ne fakamoʻui au mei hoku ngaahi fili: ʻio, ʻoku ke hiki au ke u māʻolunga ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku angatuʻu kiate au: kuo ke fakamoʻui au mei he tangata angamālohi.
49 Ngenxa yalokhu ngizakudumisa, Nkosi, phakathi kwezizwe, ngihlabelele ibizo lakho indumiso.
Ko ia te u fakafetaʻi ai kiate koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe hiteni, pea te u hivaʻaki ʻae fakafetaʻi ki ho huafa.
50 Iyanika inkosi yayo usindiso olukhulu, isenzela ogcotshiweyo wayo umusa, kuDavida, lenzalweni yakhe kuze kube nininini.
‌ʻOku ne tuku ʻae fakamoʻui lahi ki heʻene tuʻi; ʻo ne fakahā ʻae ʻaloʻofa kiate ia kuo ne pani ʻaki ʻae lolo, kia Tevita, mo hono hako ʻo taʻengata.
