< Saame 138 >
1 Ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. Te u fakamālō kiate koe ʻaki hoku loto kotoa pē: ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ngaahi ʻotua te u hiva fakamālō kiate koe.
2 Te u lotu ʻo hanga atu ki ho faletapu māʻoniʻoni, mo fakamālō ki ho huafa koeʻuhi ko hoʻo ʻaloʻofa mo hoʻo moʻoni: he kuo ke hiki ke māʻolunga hake hoʻo folofola ʻi ho huafa kotoa pē.
3 ʻI he ʻaho ne u tangi ai naʻa ke talia au, mo fakamālohi ʻaki au ʻae mālohi ʻi hoku laumālie.
4 ʻE Sihova, ʻe fakamālō kiate koe ʻae ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo māmani, ʻoka nau ka fanongo ki he ngaahi folofola ʻo ho fofonga.
5 ʻIo, tenau hiva ʻi he ngaahi hala ʻo Sihova: he ʻoku lahi ʻae nāunau ʻo Sihova.
6 Ko e moʻoni ʻoku māʻolunga ʻa Sihova, ka ʻoku ʻofa ia ki he angavaivai: ka ʻoku ʻilo ʻe ia ʻae laukau ki he mamaʻo.
7 Neongo ʻeku ʻeveʻeva ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe mamahi, te ke fakaakeake au: te ke mafao atu ho nima ke taʻofi ki he ʻita ʻa hoku ngaahi fili, pea ko ho nima toʻomataʻu te ne fakamoʻui au.
8 ʻE fakahaohaoa ʻe Sihova ʻaia ʻoku kau kiate au: ko hoʻo ʻaloʻofa, ʻE Sihova ʻoku tolonga ʻo taʻengata: ʻoua naʻa ke liʻaki ʻae ngaahi ngāue ʻa ho nima ʻoʻou.
