Saame 32
1 Ko e Saame akonaki ʻa Tevita. ʻOku monūʻia ia ʻaia kuo fakamolemole ʻa ʻene talangataʻa, pea kuo ʻufiʻufi ʻene angahala.
[A Psalm] of David, Maschil. Blessed [is he whose] transgression [is] forgiven, [whose] sin [is] covered.
2 ʻOku monūʻia ʻae tangata ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai lau ki ai ʻe Sihova ha hia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha kākā ʻi hono laumālie.
Blessed [is] the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit [there is] no guile.
3 ʻI heʻeku fakalongo pē, naʻe fakaʻaʻau ʻo motuʻa hoku ngaahi hui ʻi heʻeku tangi ʻi he ʻaho kotoa.
When I kept silence, my bones waxed old through my roaring all the day long.
4 He naʻe mamafa ho nima kiate au ʻi he ʻaho mo e pō: naʻe liliu hoku huhuʻa ko e laʻāina ʻoe faʻahitaʻu mafana. (Sila)
For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer. (Selah)
5 Naʻaku vete ʻeku angahala kiate koe, pea naʻe ʻikai te u fufū ʻeku hia. Naʻaku pehē, te u vete ʻeku ngaahi talangataʻa kia Sihova: pea naʻa ke fakamolemole ʻae hia ʻo ʻeku angahala. (Sila)
I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I said, I will confess my transgressions unto the LORD; and thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. (Selah)
6 Ko ia ʻe lotu ai kiate koe ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku anga fakaʻotua ʻi he kuonga ʻe ʻiloʻi ai koe: ko e moʻoni ʻi he ʻoho mai ʻoe ngaahi vai lahi ʻe ʻikai tenau aʻu ʻo ofi kiate ia.
For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him.
7 Ko koe ko hoku toitoiʻanga; te ke fakamoʻui au mei he mamahi; pea te ke kāpui ʻaki au ʻae ngaahi hiva ʻoe fakamoʻui. (Sila)
Thou [art] my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. (Selah)
8 Ko au te u fakapotoʻi koe mo akonakiʻi koe ʻi he hala ʻaia te ke ʻalu ai: te u fakahinohino koe ʻaki hoku mata.
I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.
9 ʻOua naʻa mou hangē ko e hoosi mo e miuli, ʻoku masiva ʻi he ʻilo: ʻaia ʻoku taʻofi ʻaki honau ngutu ʻae ukamea mo e noʻo, koeʻuhi ke nau haʻu ʻo ofi kiate koe.
Be ye not as the horse, [or] as the mule, [which] have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.
10 ʻE hoko ʻae ngaahi mamahi lahi ki he kakai angakovi: ka ko ia ʻoku falala kia Sihova, ʻe kāpui ʻaki ia ʻae ʻaloʻofa.
Many sorrows [shall be] to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about.
11 Mou fiefia ʻia Sihova, pea nekeneka, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku māʻoniʻoni: pea kalanga ʻi he fiefia, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku angatonu ʻi loto.
Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all [ye that are] upright in heart.
