Saame 121

1 Ko e Hiva ʻae ʻalu hake. Te u hanga hake hoku mata ki he ngaahi moʻunga, ʻaia ʻoku haʻu mei ai hoku tokoni.

A Song of degrees. I lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: whence shall my help come?

2 ‌ʻOku haʻu hoku tokoni meia Sihova, ʻaia ne ne ngaohi ʻae langi mo māmani.

My help [cometh] from Jehovah, who made the heavens and the earth.

3 ‌ʻE ʻikai tuku ʻe ia ke hiki ho vaʻe: ko ia ʻoku ne tauhi koe ʻe ʻikai tulemohe ia.

He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

4 Vakai, ko ia ʻoku ne tauhi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe ʻikai te ne tulemohe pe mohe.

Behold, he that keepeth Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 Ko Sihova ko ho tauhi: ko Sihova ko ho fakamalu ia ʻi ho nima toʻomataʻu.

Jehovah is thy keeper, Jehovah is thy shade upon thy right hand;

6 ‌ʻE ʻikai taaʻi koe ʻe he laʻā ʻi he ʻaho, pe ʻe he māhina ʻi he pō.

The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

7 ‌ʻE fakahaofi koe ʻe Sihova mei he kovi kotoa pē: te ne fakamoʻui ho laumālie.

Jehovah will keep thee from all evil; he will keep thy soul.

8 ‌ʻE tauhi ʻe Sihova hoʻo ʻalu kituʻa mo hoʻo liu mai mei he ʻaho ni, pea taʻengata.

Jehovah will keep thy going out and thy coming in, from henceforth and for evermore.
