Saame 145
1 Ko e Saame ʻoe fakamālō ʻa Tevita. Te u fakahikihiki koe, ko hoku ʻOtua, ko e tuʻi; pea te u fakafetaʻi ki ho huafa ʻo lauikuonga pea taʻengata.
[A praise psalm by David.] I will exalt you, my God, the King. I will praise your name forever and ever.
2 Te u fakafetaʻi kiate koe ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē; pea te u fakamālō ki ho huafa ʻo lauikuonga pea taʻengata.
Every day I will praise you. I will extol your name forever and ever.
3 ʻOku lahi ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku ngali ke faʻa fakamālō kiate ia; pea ko hono lahi ʻoku taʻefaʻaʻiloʻi.
Great is YHWH, and greatly to be praised. His greatness is unsearchable.
4 ʻE fakamālō ʻae toʻutangata ʻe taha ki hoʻo ngaahi ngāue ʻo aʻu ki he taha, pea tenau fakahā hoʻo ngaahi ngāue lahi.
One generation will commend your works to another, and will declare your mighty acts.
5 Te u lea ki hono ongoongolelei lahi ʻo hoʻo ʻafio, pea mo hoʻo ngaahi ngāue fakaofo.
Of the glorious splendor of your majesty they will speak, of your wondrous works, I will meditate.
6 Pea ʻe lea [ʻae ]kakai ki hono mālohi ʻo hoʻo ngaahi ngāue fakailifia: pea te u fakahā hoʻo māfimafi.
Men will speak of the might of your awesome acts. I will declare your greatness.
7 Tenau faʻa fakahā ʻae fakamanatu ʻo hoʻo ʻulungāanga lelei lahi, pea tenau hiva ʻaki hoʻo māʻoniʻoni.
They will utter the memory of your great goodness, and will sing of your righteousness.
8 ʻOku angalelei ʻa Sihova, pea fonu ʻi he manavaʻofa; ʻoku tōʻohi hono houhau, pea ʻoku lahi ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa.
YHWH is gracious, merciful, slow to anger, and of great loving kindness.
9 ʻOku angalelei ʻa Sihova ki he kakai kotoa pē: pea ʻoku kāpui ʻene ngāue kotoa pē ʻe heʻene ngaahi ʻaloʻofa ongongofua.
YHWH is good to all. His tender mercies are over all his works.
10 ʻE Sihova, ʻe fakamālō kiate koe ʻa hoʻo ngaahi ngāue kotoa pē; pea ʻe fakafetaʻi kiate koe ʻa hoʻo kakai māʻoniʻoni.
All your works will give thanks to you, YHWH. And your faithful ones will bless you.
11 Tenau lea ki he nāunau ʻo ho puleʻanga, pea talanoa ki hoʻo māfimafi;
They will speak of the glory of your kingdom, and talk about your power;
12 Ke fakaʻilo ki he ngaahi foha ʻoe tangata ʻene ngaahi ngāue lahi, pea mo e ongoongolelei lahi ʻo hono puleʻanga.
to make known to the descendants of Adam his mighty acts, the glory of the majesty of his kingdom.
13 Ko ho puleʻanga ko e puleʻanga taʻengata, pea ko hoʻo pule ʻoku tolonga ia ʻi he ngaahi toʻutangata kotoa pē.
Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. Your dominion endures throughout all generations. YHWH is faithful in all his words, and gracious in all his deeds.
14 ʻOku poupou hake ʻe Sihova ʻakinautolu kotoa pē kuo hinga, pea ʻoku ne fokotuʻu ʻakinautolu kotoa pē kuo mapelu ki lalo.
YHWH upholds all who fall, and raises up all those who are bowed down.
15 ʻOku hanga ʻae ngaahi mata kotoa pē kiate koe; pea ʻoku ke foaki ʻenau meʻakai ʻi he feituʻulaʻā totonu.
The eyes of all wait for you. You give them their food in due season.
16 ʻOku ke mafola ho nima, mo fakamākona ʻae holi ʻae meʻa moʻui kotoa pē.
You yourself open your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing.
17 ʻOku angatonu ʻa Sihova ʻi hono hala kotoa pē, pea māʻoniʻoni ʻi heʻene ngaahi ngāue kotoa pē.
YHWH is righteous in all his ways, and faithful in all his deeds.
18 ʻOku ofi ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu kotoa pē kuo ui ki heʻene ʻafio, kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku nau ui kiate ia ʻi he moʻoni.
YHWH is near to all those who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.
19 Te ne fai ki he holi ʻanautolu ʻoku manavahē kiate ia: ʻe fanongo foki ia ki heʻenau tangi, pea te ne fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu.
He will fulfill the desire of those who fear him. He also will hear their cry, and will save them.
20 ʻOku fakamoʻui ʻe Sihova ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku nau ʻofa kiate ia: ka ko e angakovi kotoa pē te ne fakaʻauha.
YHWH preserves all those who love him, but all the wicked he will destroy.
21 ʻE lea ʻaki ʻe hoku ngutu ʻae fakamālō kia Sihova: pea tuku ke fakafetaʻi ʻae kakano kotoa pē ki hono huafa māʻoniʻoni ʻo lauikuonga pea taʻengata.
My mouth will speak the praise of YHWH. Let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.
