Saame 15

1 Ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. ‌ʻE Sihova, ko hai te ne nofo ʻi ho fale fehikitaki? Ko hai te ne nofomaʻu ʻi ho moʻunga māʻoniʻoni?

A Psalm of David. LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

2 Ko ia ia ʻoku ʻeveʻeva ʻi he angatonu, pea ngāue ʻi he māʻoniʻoni, mo lea ʻaki ʻae moʻoni ʻi hono loto.

He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

3 Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai lauʻikovi ʻaki hono ʻelelo, pe fai kovi ki hono kaungāʻapi, pe toʻo hake ʻae lea kovi ki hono kaungāʻapi.

[He that] backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbor, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbor.

4 ‌ʻAia ʻoku kovi ki hono mata ʻae tangata fai kovi; ka ʻoku ne fakaʻapaʻapa kiate kinautolu ʻoku manavahē kia Sihova. ʻOku ne fuakava, pea kovi ai ia, ka ʻe ʻikai liliu ai.

In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoreth them that fear the LORD. [He that] sweareth to [his own] hurt, and changeth not.

5 Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ʻange ʻene ngaahi paʻanga koeʻuhi ko e totongi, pe toʻo ʻe ia ʻae totongi ke fai kovi ki he māʻoniʻoni. Ko ia ʻoku ne fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni ʻe ʻikai ueʻi ia ʻo taʻengata.

[He that] putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these [things] shall never be moved.
