Saame 13

1 Ki he Takimuʻa, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. ‌ʻE Sihova, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa? Mo hoʻo kei fakangalongaloʻi au? Ke taʻengata? ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa ʻo hoʻo fufū ho fofonga ʻiate au?

Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. He himene na Rawiri. Kia pehea te roa o tou wareware ki ahau, e Ihowa? mo ake tonu atu ranei? Kia pehea te roa o tau hunanga i tou mata ki ahau?

2 ‌ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa mo ʻeku lauloto mo hoku laumālie, ʻo loto mamahi pē ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē? ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa mo e fielahi kiate au ʻa hoku fili?

Kia pehea te roa o toku whakaaroaronga i roto i toku wairua, o te pouri i roto i toku ngakau i tenei ra, i tenei ra? Kia pehea te roa o te whakakake mai a toku hoariri ki ahau?

3 ‌ʻE Sihova ko hoku ʻOtua, ke ke tokanga mai pea ongoʻi au: fakamaama hoku mata, telia naʻaku mohe ʻi he mohe ʻoe mate;

Titiro mai, whakahokia mai he kupu ki ahau, e Ihowa, e toku Atua: whakamaramatia oku kanohi, kei moe ahau i te moe o te mate.

4 Telia naʻa pehē ʻe hoku fili, “Kuo u ikuna ia;” pea fiefia ʻakinautolu ʻoku fakamamahiʻi au ʻo kau ka ngaue.

Kei mea mai toku hoariri, Kua taea ia e ahau: kei whakamanamana oku hoariri, ina whakakorikoria ahau.

5 Ka kuo u falala ki hoʻo ʻaloʻofa; ʻo fiefia hoku loto ʻi hoʻo fakamoʻui.

Ko ahau ia e whakawhirinaki ana ki tau mahi toku: ka whakamanamana toku ngakau ki tau whakaoranga.

6 Te u hiva kia Sihova, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fai lelei lahi ʻaupito kiate au.

Ka waiata ahau ki a Ihowa, mona i atawhai mai ki ahau.
