Saame 106
1 Mou fakamālō kia Sihova. Mou ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi kia Sihova; he ʻoku angalelei ia: koeʻuhi ʻoku tolonga ʻo taʻengata ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa.
Hallelujah. Oh give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for to eternity endureth his kindness.
2 Ko hai ʻe faʻa fakamatala ki he ngaahi ngāue lahi ʻa Sihova? Ko hai ʻe faʻa fakahā ʻae fakamālō kotoa pē kiate ia?
Who can utter the mighty acts of the Lord? who can publish all his praise?
3 ʻOku monūʻia ʻakinautolu ʻoku tokanga ki he fakamaau, mo ia ʻoku fai māʻoniʻoni ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē.
Happy are those that observe justice, that execute righteousness at all times.
4 ʻE Sihova, ke ke manatuʻi au ʻaki ʻae ʻofa ʻaia ʻoku ke ʻofa ʻaki ki hoʻo kakai: ke ke ʻaʻahi mai kiate au ʻaki hoʻo fakamoʻui;
Remember me, O Lord, when thou favorest thy people: oh visit me with thy salvation;
5 Koeʻuhi ke u mamata ki he lelei ʻo ia kuo ke fili, koeʻuhi ke u fiefia ʻi he fiefia ʻo ho puleʻanga, pea u vikiviki ai fakataha mo ho tofiʻa.
That I may look on the happiness of thy elect, that I may rejoice in the joy of thy nation, that I may glorify myself with thy inheritance.
6 Ko kimautolu mo ʻemau ngaahi tamai kuo mau fai angahala, kuo mau fai ʻae ngaahi hia, kuo mau fai kovi.
We have sinned together with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.
7 Naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe heʻemau ngaahi tamai hoʻo ngaahi ngāue fakaofo ʻi ʻIsipite; naʻe ʻikai tenau manatu ki hono lahi ʻo hoʻo ngaahi ʻaloʻofa; ka naʻa nau fakahouhau kiate ia ʻi he tahi, ʻio, ʻi he Tahi Kulokula.
Our fathers did not reflect on thy wonders in Egypt: they remembered not the multitude of thy kindnesses; but rebelled at the sea, even at the Red Sea.
8 Ka naʻa ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu koeʻuhi ko hono huafa, koeʻuhi ke ne fakaʻilo ʻa hono mālohi lahi.
Nevertheless he saved them for the sake of his name, to make known his might.
9 Naʻe valoki foki ʻe ia ʻae Tahi Kulokula, pea mōmoa ia: ko ia naʻa ne tataki ʻakinautolu ʻi he loloto, ʻo hangē ko e toafa.
He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it was dried up; and he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.
10 Pea naʻa ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu mei he nima ʻo ia naʻe fehiʻa kiate kinautolu, mo ne huhuʻi ʻakinautolu mei he nima ʻoe fili.
And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11 Pea naʻe lōmakiʻi honau ngaahi fili ʻaki ʻae ngaahi vai: pea naʻe ʻikai hao ha tokotaha ʻiate kinautolu.
And the waters covered their adversaries: not one of them was left.
12 Pea naʻa nau toki tui ki heʻene folofola; naʻa nau hiva ʻaki ʻae fakamālō kiate ia.
Then believed they in his words, they sang his praise.
13 Naʻe ngalo leva ʻiate kinautolu ʻene ngaahi ngāue; pea naʻe ʻikai tenau tatali ki heʻene akonaki:
Speedily they forgot his works, they waited not for his counsel;
14 Ka naʻa nau holi kovi ʻaupito ʻi he toafa, pea ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻae ʻOtua ʻi he potu lala.
And they felt a lustful longing in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.
15 Pea naʻa ne foaki kiate kinautolu ʻaia naʻa nau kole; ka naʻa ne fekau ʻae tutue ki honau laumālie.
And he gave them what they had asked; but sent dryness into their soul.
16 Naʻa nau meheka foki kia Mōsese ʻi he loto ʻapitanga, mo ʻElone ko e tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻa Sihova.
Moreover they envied Moses in the camp, and Aaron the holy one of the Lord.
17 Naʻe mafahi ʻae kelekele pea folo hifo ai ʻa Tatani, mo ʻufiʻufi ai ʻae kakai ʻo ʻEpilami.
The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered over the company of Abiram.
18 Pea naʻe tutu ai ʻae afi ʻi honau kakai; pea vela ke ʻosi ʻe he ulo afi ʻae kau angahala.
And a fire was kindled in their company: the flame burnt up the wicked.
19 Naʻa nau ngaohi ʻae fakatātā ʻoe ʻuhikiʻi pulu ʻi Holepi, pea lotu ki he fakatātā koula.
They made a calf in Horeb, and bowed themselves down to a molten image.
20 Naʻe pehē ʻenau liliu honau nāunau, ki he fakatātā ʻoe pulu ʻaia ʻoku kai mohuku.
And they exchanged their glory for the similitude of an ox that eateth herbs.
21 Naʻa nau fakangalongaloʻi ʻae ʻOtua ko honau fakamoʻui, ʻaia naʻe fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa lahi ʻi ʻIsipite;
They forgot God their saviour, who had done great things in Egypt,
22 Ko e ngaahi ngāue fakaofo ʻi he fonua ʻo Hami, mo e ngaahi meʻa fakailifia ʻi he Tahi Kulokula.
Wonders in the land of Ham, terrible things by the Red Sea.
23 Ko ia naʻa ne pehē te ne fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu, ka ne ʻikai tuʻu ʻi hono ʻao ʻi he vahaʻa ʻa Mōsese ʻaia kuo ne fili, ke fakatafoki hono houhau, telia naʻa fakaʻauha ʻe ia ʻakinautolu.
He therefore spoke of destroying them: had not Moses his elect stood in the breach before him, to turn away his fury, that he might not destroy.
24 ʻIo, naʻa nau fehiʻa ki he fonua lelei, naʻe ʻikai tenau tui ki heʻene folofola:
And they despised the pleasant land, they believed not in his word;
25 Ka naʻa nau lāunga ʻi honau ngaahi fale fehikitaki, ʻo taʻetokanga ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova.
But they murmured in their tents, they hearkened not unto the voice of the Lord.
26 Ko ia naʻa ne hiki hake ai hono nima kiate kinautolu, ke tulaki ʻakinautolu ʻi he toafa:
He therefore lifted up his hand against them, to cause them to fall in the wilderness;
27 Ke tulaki foki honau hako ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga, mo fakahēʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi fonua.
And to let their seed fall among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.
28 Naʻa nau ului foki kia Peali-Peoli, mo nau kai ʻae ngaahi feilaulau ʻoe mate.
And they joined themselves unto Ba'al-pe'or, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
29 Ko ia naʻa nau fakahouhauʻi ia ʻaki ʻenau ngaahi filioʻi: pea naʻe ʻoho mai ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha kiate kinautolu.
And they provoked him to anger with their deeds: and there broke in among them the plague.
30 Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ʻa Finiasi, ʻo fai ʻae fakamaau: pea naʻe lolomi ai ʻae mahaki fakaʻauha.
Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and the plague was stayed.
31 Pea naʻe lau ia kiate ia ko e māʻoniʻoni ʻi he ngaahi toʻutangata kotoa pē ʻo lauikuonga.
And it was accounted unto him for righteousness, unto all generations for evermore.
32 Naʻa nau fakahouhau kiate ia foki ʻi he ngaahi vai ʻoe fekeʻikeʻi, pea hoko ʻae kovi kia Mōsese koeʻuhi ko kinautolu:
They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, and evil happened to Moses for their sake;
33 Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau fakatupu hono loto, ko ia naʻa ne lea ʻaki ʻae lea taʻengali ʻe hono loungutu.
Because they had embittered his spirit, and so he spoke thoughtlessly with his lips.
34 Naʻe ʻikai tenau fakaʻauha ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga, ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kiate kinautolu:
They did not exterminate the nations, that the Lord had indicated to them;
35 Ka naʻa nau nofo fakataha mo e hiteni, pea nau ʻilo ʻenau ngaahi ngāue.
But they mingled themselves among the nations, and learned their doings.
36 Pea naʻa nau tauhi honau ngaahi tamapua: ʻaia naʻe hoko ko e tauhele kiate kinautolu.
And they served their idols, and these became unto them a snare.
37 ʻIo, naʻa nau feilaulau ʻaki honau ngaahi foha mo honau ngaahi ʻofefine ki he kau tēvolo,
Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto the evil spirits;
38 Mo lilingi ʻae toto māʻoniʻoni, ko e toto ʻo honau ngaahi foha mo honau ngaahi ʻofefine, ʻakinautolu naʻa nau feilaulau ʻaki ki he ngaahi tamapua ʻo ʻi he toto.
And they shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood-guiltiness.
39 Pea naʻe fakaʻuliʻi pehē ʻakinautolu ʻi heʻenau ngaahi ngāue, pea nau fai feʻauaki ʻi heʻenau ngaahi filioʻi.
Thus were they made unclean through their own doings, and went astray with their own deeds.
40 Ko ia naʻe tupu ai ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova ki hono kakai, pea ne fākaliliʻa ai ki hono tofiʻa ʻoʻona.
therefore was the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people, and be felt disgust for his own inheritance.
41 Pea naʻa ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻoe hiteni; pea naʻe pule kiate kinautolu ʻakinautolu naʻe fehiʻa kiate kinautolu.
And he gave them up into the hand of the nations: and there ruled over them those that hated them.
42 Pea naʻe fakamālohiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe honau ngaahi fili, pea fakamoʻulaloa ʻakinautolu ki honau lalo nima.
And their enemies also oppressed them: and they were subdued under their hand.
43 Naʻe liunga lahi ʻene fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu; ka naʻa nau fakahouhauʻi ia ʻi heʻenau fakakaukau, pea naʻe fakavaivaiʻi ʻakinautolu koeʻuhi ko ʻenau hia.
Many times did he deliver them; but they rebelled with their counsel, and they were brought low through their iniquity.
44 Ka naʻa ne tokanga ki heʻenau mamahi, ʻi heʻene ongoʻi ʻenau tangi:
Nevertheless he looked on when they were in distress, when he heard their entreaty.
45 Pea ne manatuʻi ʻa ʻene fuakava mo kinautolu, pea ne fakatomala ʻo fakatatau mo hono lahi ʻo ʻene ʻaloʻofa.
And he remembered unto them his covenant, and he bethought himself according to the abundance of his kindnesses;
46 naʻa ne pule foki ke manavaʻofa kiate kinautolu ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻave pōpula ʻakinautolu.
And be caused them to find mercy before all those that had carried them away captive.
47 Fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu, ʻE Sihova ko homau ʻOtua, pea tānaki ʻakimautolu mei he lotolotonga ʻoe hiteni, ke mau fakafetaʻi ki ho huafa māʻoniʻoni, pea hanuhanu ʻi he fakamālō kiate koe.
Save us, O Lord our God, and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks unto thy holy name, to triumph in thy praise.
48 Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova koe ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli talu mei muʻa ʻo aʻu ʻo taʻengata; pea tuku ke lea pehē ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻEmeni. Mou fakamālō kia Sihova.
Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel from everlasting even to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen, Hallelujah.
