Saame 24

1 Ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. ‌ʻOku ʻo Sihova ʻae fonua kotoa pē, mo hono mahu ʻo ia; ʻa māmani, mo kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi ai.

For the First Sabbath. A Psalm of David. The earth and all its fullness belong to the Lord: the whole world and all that dwells in it.

2 He kuo ne fokotuʻu ia ki he ngaahi tahi, mo fakatuʻumaʻu ia ki he ngaahi vai lahi.

For he has founded it upon the seas, and he has prepared it upon the rivers.

3 Ko hai ʻe ʻalu hake ki he moʻunga ʻo Sihova? Pe ko hai ʻe tuʻu ʻi hono potu māʻoniʻoni?

Who will ascend to the mountain of the Lord? And who will stand in his holy place?

4 Ko ia ʻoku nima maʻa, mo loto māʻoniʻoni; ʻaia naʻe ʻikai te ne hiki hono laumālie ki he meʻa vaʻinga, pe fuakava ʻi he kākā.

The innocent of hands and the clean of heart, who has not received his soul in vain, nor sworn deceitfully to his neighbor.

5 Te ne maʻu ʻe ia ʻae tāpuaki meia Sihova, mo e māʻoniʻoni mei he ʻOtua ʻo ʻene moʻui.

He will receive a blessing from the Lord, and mercy from God, his Savior.

6 Ko e toʻutangata eni ʻokinautolu ʻoku kumi kiate ia, ʻakinautolu ʻoku kumi ki ho fofonga, ʻE ʻOtua ʻo Sēkope. (Sila)

This is the generation that seeks him, that seeks the face of the God of Jacob.

7 Hiki hake homou ʻulu, ʻae ngaahi matapā; pea ke hiki ke māʻolunga, ʻakimoutolu ʻae ngaahi matapā taʻengata; pea ʻe hāʻele mai ʻae Tuʻi ʻoe nāunau.

Lift up your gates, you princes, and be lifted up, eternal gates. And the King of Glory shall enter.

8 Ko hai ʻae Tuʻi ni ʻoe nāunau? Ko Sihova ʻoku mālohi mo māfimafi, ko Sihova ʻoku mālohi ʻi he tau.

Who is this King of Glory? The Lord who is strong and powerful; the Lord powerful in battle.

9 Hiki hake homou ʻulu, ʻae ngaahi matapā; ʻio, hiki ki ʻolunga, ʻae ngaahi matapā taʻengata; pea ʻe hāʻele mai ʻae Tuʻi ʻoe nāunau.

Lift up your gates, you princes, and be lifted up, eternal gates. And the King of Glory shall enter.

10 Ko hai ʻae Tuʻi ni ʻoe nāunau? Ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko ia ia ko e Tuʻi ʻoe nāunau. (Sila)

Who is this King of Glory? The Lord of virtue. He himself is the King of Glory.
