1 Ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. ‌ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ou tangi kiate koe: ke ke haʻu vave kiate au; fakafanongo ki hoku leʻo, ʻo kau ka tangi kiate koe.
Zaburi ya Daudi. Ee Bwana, ninakuita wewe, uje kwangu hima. Sikia sauti yangu ninapokuita.
2 Ke aʻu atu ʻeku lotu ki ho ʻao ʻo hangē ko e meʻa namu kakala; mo e hiki hake ʻo hoku nima ʻo hangē ko e feilaulau ʻoe efiafi.
Maombi yangu na yafike mbele zako kama uvumba; kuinua mikono yangu juu na kuwe kama dhabihu ya jioni.
3 ‌ʻE Sihova, fakanofo ʻae leʻo ki hoku ngutu; tauhi ʻae matapā ʻo hoku loungutu.
Ee Bwana, weka mlinzi kinywani mwangu, weka ulinzi mlangoni mwa midomo yangu.
4 ‌ʻOua naʻa ueʻi hoku loto ki ha meʻa kovi ʻe taha, ke fai ʻae ngaahi ngāue kovi mo e kau tangata ʻoku fai kovi: pea ʻoua naʻa tuku ke u kai ʻi heʻenau ngaahi meʻa lelei.
Usiuache moyo wangu uvutwe katika jambo baya, nisije nikashiriki katika matendo maovu pamoja na watu watendao mabaya, wala nisije nikala vyakula vyao vya anasa.
5 Ke taaʻi au ʻe he angatonu; pea ko e ʻofa ia: pea tuku ke ne valokiʻi au; ko e lolo lelei ia, ʻaia ʻe ʻikai foa ai hoku ʻulu: he ko ʻeku lotu foki ʻe fai ia ʻi heʻenau ngaahi mamahi.
Mtu mwenye haki na anipige: ni jambo la huruma; na anikemee: ni mafuta kichwani mwangu. Kichwa changu hakitalikataa. Hata hivyo, maombi yangu daima ni kinyume cha watenda mabaya,
6 ‌ʻOka hinga ʻenau kau fakamaau ʻi he ngaahi potu tokatāmaki, tenau fanongo ki heʻeku ngaahi lea; he ʻoku melie ia.
watawala wao watatupwa chini kutoka kwenye majabali, waovu watajifunza kwamba maneno yangu yalikuwa kweli.
7 Kuo movetevete hotau ngaahi hui ʻi he ngutu ʻoe faʻitoka, ʻo hangē ko e taaʻi ʻo mafahi ʻe he taha ʻae ʻakau ʻi he funga ʻoe fonua. (Sheol h7585)
Watasema, “Kama mtu anavyolima na kuvunja ardhi, ndivyo mifupa yetu imetawanywa kwenye mlango wa kaburi.” (Sheol h7585)
8 Ka ʻoku hanga hoku mata kiate koe, ʻE Sihova ko e ʻEiki: ʻoku ou falala kiate koe; ʻoua naʻa ke siʻaki hoku laumālie.
Lakini nimekaza macho yangu kwako, Ee Bwana Mwenyezi, ndani yako nimekimbilia, usiniache nife.
9 Taʻofi au mei he ngaahi tauhele kuo nau ʻai kiate au, mo e ngaahi meʻa fakauʻu, ʻae kakai fai kovi.
Niepushe na mitego waliyonitegea, kutokana na mitego iliyotegwa na watenda mabaya.
10 Tuku ke tō ʻae angahala ki he ngaahi kupenga ʻanautolu, ʻi he lolotonga ʻo ʻeku hao mei ai.
Waovu na waanguke kwenye nyavu zao wenyewe, wakati mimi ninapita salama.
