Saame 36
1 Ki he Takimuʻa, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova. ʻOku lea ʻae talangataʻa ʻae angakovi ki hoku loto, “ʻoku ʻikai ha manavahē ki he ʻOtua ʻi hono ʻao.”
`To victorie, to Dauid, `the seruaunt of the Lord. The vniust man seide, that he trespasse in hym silf; the drede of God is not bifor hise iyen.
2 He ʻoku ne fakaholoholoʻi ʻe ia ia ʻi hono ʻao, ke ʻoua ke hoko ʻo hā mai ʻae kovi ʻo ʻene hia.
For he dide gilefuli in the siyt of God; that his wickidnesse be foundun to hatrede.
3 Ko e ngaahi lea ʻa hono ngutu ko e kovi mo e kākā: kuo tuku ʻe ia ʻene poto mo e fai lelei.
The wordis of his mouth ben wickidnesse and gile, he nolde vndirstonde to do wel.
4 ʻOku ne fifili ki he pauʻu ʻi hono mohenga; ʻoku ne fokotuʻu ʻe ia ia ʻi he hala ʻoku ʻikai lelei; ʻoku ʻikai te ne fehiʻa ki he kovi.
He thouyte wickidnesse in his bed, he stood nyy al weie not good; forsothe he hatide not malice.
5 Ko hoʻo ʻaloʻofa, ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi langi; pea ʻoku aʻu hake hoʻo angatonu ki he ngaahi ʻao.
Lord, thi merci is in heuene; and thi treuthe is `til to cloudis.
6 Ko hoʻo māʻoniʻoni ʻoku hangē ko e ngaahi moʻunga ʻoe ʻOtua; ko hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau ko e fuʻu moana; ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ke fakamoʻui ʻae tangata mo e manu.
Thi riytfulnesse is as the hillis of God; thi domes ben myche depthe of watris. Lord, thou schalt saue men and beestis;
7 ʻE ʻOtua, hono ʻikai mahuʻinga fau ʻa hoʻo ʻaloʻofa! Ko ia ʻoku falala ai ʻae fānau ʻae tangata ki he malu ʻo ho kapakau.
as thou, God, hast multiplied thi merci. But the sones of men; schulen hope in the hilyng of thi wyngis.
8 Te nau fonu lahi ʻi he mahu lelei ʻo ho fale; pea te ke fakainu ʻakinautolu ʻi he vaitafe ʻo hoʻo fiemālie.
Thei schulen be fillid gretli of the plentee of thin hows; and thou schalt yyue drynke to hem with the steef streem of thi likyng.
9 He ʻoku ʻiate koe ʻae matavai ʻoe moʻui: temau mamata ʻi hoʻo maama ki he maama.
For the wel of life is at thee; and in thi liyt we schulen se liyt.
10 Ke tuʻumaʻu pe hoʻo ʻaloʻofa kiate kinautolu ʻoku nau ʻilo koe; mo hoʻo māʻoniʻoni ki he angatonu ʻi loto.
Lord, sette forth thi mercy to hem, that knowen thee; and thi ryytfulnesse to hem that ben of riytful herte.
11 ʻOua naʻa hoko kiate au ʻae vaʻe ʻoe laukau, pea ʻoua naʻa hiki au ʻe he nima ʻoe angakovi.
The foot of pryde come not to me; and the hond of the synnere moue me not.
12 Kuo hinga ʻi ai ʻae kau fai kovi: kuo lī ki lalo ʻakinautolu, pea ʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa tuʻu hake.
There thei felden doun, that worchen wickidnesse; thei ben cast out, and myyten not stonde.
