Saame 110

1 Ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. Naʻe pehē ʻE Sihova ki hoku ʻEiki, “Nofo koe ki hoku nima toʻomataʻu, kaeʻoua ke u ngaohi ho ngaahi fili ko ho tuʻungavaʻe.”

A psalm of David. Yahweh says to my master, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool.”

2 ‌ʻE fekau ʻe Sihova ʻae tokotoko ʻo ho mālohi mei Saione: “Ke ke pule ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ho ngaahi fili.”

Yahweh will hold out the scepter of your strength from Zion; rule among your enemies.

3 ‌ʻE loto matala ʻa hoʻo kakai ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ho mālohi, ʻi he ngaahi teunga matamatalelei ʻoe māʻoniʻoni mei he manāva ʻoe pongipongi: ʻoku ʻiate koe ʻae hahau ʻo hoʻo talavou.

Your people will follow you in holy garments of their own free will on the day of your power; from the womb of the dawn your youth will be to you like the dew.

4 Kuo fuakava ʻa Sihova, pea ʻe ʻikai liliu ia, “Ko e taulaʻeiki koe ʻo lauikuonga ʻi he lakanga ʻo Melikiseteke.”

Yahweh has sworn, and will not change: “You are a priest forever, after the manner of Melchizedek.”

5 Ko e ʻEiki ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ho nima toʻomataʻu, te ne taaʻi ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻi he ʻaho ʻo hono houhau.

The Lord is at your right hand. He will kill kings on the day of his anger.

6 Te ne fakamaau ʻi he ʻao ʻoe hiteni, te ne fakapito ʻae ngaahi potu ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻangaʻanga; ʻe lavea ʻiate ia ʻae ʻulu ʻoe ngaahi fonua lahi.

He will judge the nations; he will fill the battlegrounds with dead bodies; he will kill the leaders in many countries.

7 ‌ʻE inu ia ʻi he vaitafe ʻi he hala: ko ia te ne hiki hake ai ʻae ʻulu.

He will drink of the brook along the road, and then he will lift his head up high after victory.
