Saame 101

1 Ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. Te u hiva ʻaki ʻae ʻaloʻofa mo e fakamaau: ‌ʻE Sihova, te u hiva kiate koe.

`The salm of Dauid. Lord, Y schal synge to thee; merci and doom.

2 Te u fai fakapotopoto ʻi he hala haohaoa. Te ke hāʻele mai ʻafē kiate au? Te u ʻeveʻeva ʻi hoku fale ʻi he loto haohaoa.

I schal synge, and Y schal vndurstonde in a weie with out wem; whanne thou schalt come to me. I yede perfitli in the innocence of myn herte; in the myddil of myn hous.

3 ‌ʻE ʻikai te u tuku ha meʻa kovi ʻi hoku ʻao: ʻoku ou fehiʻa ki he ngāue ʻanautolu kuo nau afe; ʻE ʻikai pipiki ia kiate au.

I settide not forth bifore myn iyen an vniust thing; Y hatide hem that maden trespassyngis.

4 ‌ʻE ʻalu ʻiate au ʻaia ʻoku loto kovi: ʻE ʻikai te u ʻiloʻi ha taha ʻoku kovi.

A schrewide herte cleuede not to me; Y knewe not a wickid man bowynge awei fro me.

5 Ko ia ʻoku fakakovi fakafufū hono kaungāʻapi, te u tuʻusi ia: ko ia ʻoku fiematamuʻa mo loto laukau ʻe ʻikai te u kātakiʻi.

I pursuede hym; that bacbitide priueli his neiybore. With the proude iye and an herte vnable to be fillid; Y eet not with this.

6 ‌ʻE sio maʻu hoku mata ki he kakai angatonu ʻi he fonua, koeʻuhi ke mau nonofo mo au: ko ia ʻoku ʻeveʻeva ʻi he hala haohaoa, ko ia ia ʻe tauhi au.

Myn iyen weren to the feithful men of erthe, that thei sitte with me; he that yede in a weie with out wem, mynystride to me.

7 Ko ia ʻoku ne fai kākā ʻe ʻikai nofo ia ʻi hoku fale: ko ia ʻoku faʻa loi ʻe ʻikai te ne nofo ʻi hoku ʻao.

He that doith pride, schal not dwelle in the myddil of myn hous; he that spekith wickid thingis, seruede not in the siyt of myn iyen.

8 ‌ʻE vave ʻeku fakaʻauha ʻae kau angahala kotoa pē ʻoe fonua; koeʻuhi ke u tuʻusi ʻae kakai fai kovi kotoa pē mei he kolo ʻa Sihova.

In the morutid Y killide alle the synners of erthe; that Y schulde leese fro the citee of the Lord alle men worchynge wickidnesse.
