< Saame 20 >
1 Ki he Takimuʻa, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. Ke ongoʻi koe ʻe Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe mamahi; ke maluʻi koe ʻe he huafa ʻoe ʻOtua ʻo Sēkope;
For the Leader. A Psalm of David. The LORD answer thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high;
2 ʻO fekau hoʻo tokoni mei he faletapu, mo fakamālohi koe mei Saione;
Send forth thy help from the sanctuary, and support thee out of Zion;
3 ʻO manatuʻi hoʻo meʻa foaki kotoa pē, pea finangalo lelei ki hoʻo feilaulau tutu; (Sila)
Receive the memorial of all thy meal-offerings, and accept the fat of thy burnt-sacrifice; (Selah)
4 Pea foaki kiate koe ʻo hangē ko ho loto, ʻo fakahoko ʻaia ʻoku ke fakakaukau ki ai.
Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
5 Te mau fiefia ʻi hoʻo fakamoʻui, pea ʻi he huafa ʻo homau ʻOtua te mau fokotuʻu ʻemau ngaahi fuka: ke tuku kiate koe ʻe Sihova ʻa hoʻo ngaahi kole kotoa pē.
We will shout for joy in thy victory, and in the name of our God we will set up our standards; the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.
6 Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou ʻilo ʻoku fakamoʻui ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻene pani; te ne ongoʻi ia mei hono potu toputapu māʻoniʻoni ʻaki ʻae mālohi fakamoʻui ʻo hono nima toʻomataʻu.
Now know I that the LORD saveth His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven with the mighty acts of His saving right hand.
7 ʻOku falala ʻae niʻihi ki he ngaahi saliote, mo e niʻihi ki he fanga hoosi: ka te tau manatuʻi ʻae huafa ʻo Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua.
Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will make mention of the name of the LORD our God.
8 Kuo lī ki lalo ʻo tō ʻakinautolu: ka kuo tau tuʻuhake, ʻo tuʻu ki ʻolunga.
They are bowed down and fallen; but we are risen, and stand upright.
9 ʻE Sihova, ke ke fakamoʻui ʻae tuʻi ke ke ongoʻi ʻakimautolu ʻi heʻemau ui atu.
Save, LORD; let the King answer us in the day that we call.
