Saame 60
1 Ki he Takimuʻa ʻi he Susani-Etuta, ko e Saame mahuʻinga ʻa Tevita, ke ako ʻaki; ʻi heʻene tauʻi ʻa ʻElama-Nahalaimi mo ʻElama-Sopa, pea liu mai ʻa Soape, ʻo ne tāmateʻi ʻi he luo ʻoe māsima ʻae tokotaha mano ma toko ua afe ʻoe kakai ʻItomi. ʻE ʻOtua, kuo ke liʻaki ʻakimautolu; kuo ke veteki ʻakimautolu; naʻa ke houhau; ke ke toe tafoki mai kiate kimautolu.
Kumqondisi wokuhlabelela. Kulandelwa itshuni ethi, “Iluba lesiVumelwano.” Imikithamu kaDavida. Elokufundisa. Lapho alwa lo-Aramu Naharayimu lo-Aramu Zobha, njalo lapho uJowabi athi ekubuyeni kwakhe walahla phansi ama-Edomi azinkulungwane ezilitshumi lambili eSigodini seTswayi. Ususilahlile, Oh Nkulunkulu, wabhidliza izinqaba zethu; ubukade uthukuthele, manje ake usivuselele!
2 Kuo ke lulu ʻae fonua ke tetetete; kuo mafahifahi ia: ke ke fakalelei hono ngaahi maumau; he ʻoku ngalulu ia.
Usulizamazamisile ilizwe waliqhekeza; namathisela iminkenke yalo ngoba selivevezela.
3 Kuo ke fakahā ʻae ngaahi meʻa faingataʻa ki hoʻo kakai; kuo ke fakainu ʻaki ʻakimautolu ʻae uaine fakaofo.
Ubabonisile abantu bakho izikhathi ezilukhuni; usiphe iwayini elisenza sidiyazele.
4 Kuo ke foaki ʻae fuka kiate kinautolu naʻe manavahē kiate koe, ke fakahā ia koeʻuhi ko e moʻoni. (Sila)
Kodwa kulabo abakwesabayo usuphakamise uphawu lokubahlanganisa ndawonye.
5 Koeʻuhi ke hao ʻaia ʻoku ke ʻofa ai; ke ke fakamoʻui ʻaki ho nima toʻomataʻu, ʻo fanongo kiate au.
Sisindise, usisize ngesandla sakho sokunene, ukuze bonke labo obathandayo bakhululwe.
6 Kuo folofola ʻae ʻOtua ʻi heʻene māʻoniʻoni; “Te u fiefia, te u vaeua ʻa Sikemi, ʻo fuofua ʻae luo ʻo Sukote.
UNkulunkulu usekhulumile esendlini yakhe engcwele: “Ngokunqoba ngizayaba iShekhemu, ngihlole leSigodi saseSukhothi.
7 ʻOku ʻoʻoku ʻa Kiliati, pea ʻoʻoku mo Manase; ko e mālohi foki ʻo hoku ʻulu ʻa ʻIfalemi; ko ʻeku fai fono ʻa Siuta;
Ngeyami iGiliyadi, loManase ngowami; u-Efrayimi yisivikelo sekhanda lami, uJuda uyintonga yami yobukhosi.
8 Ko ʻeku ipu kaukauʻanga ʻa Moape; te u lī hoku topuvaʻe ki ʻolunga ki ʻItomi: Filisitia, ke ke vikiviki koe koeʻuhi ko au.”
IMowabi ngumganu wami wokugezela, phezu kuka-Edomi ngiphosela amanyathelo ami; phezu kweFilistiya ngihalalisa umkhosi wokunqoba.”
9 Ko hai te ne ʻomi au ki he kolo mālohi? Ko hai te ne aʻutaki au ki ʻItomi?
Ngubani ozangisa emzini olenqaba na? Ngubani ozangiholela e-Edomi na?
10 ʻE ʻOtua, ʻe ʻikai te ke fai ia, ʻa koe kuo ke liʻaki ʻakimautolu? ʻA koe, ʻE ʻOtua, naʻe ʻikai te ke ʻalu mo ʻemau ngaahi kautau?
Kakusuwe na, Oh Nkulunkulu, wena osusilahlile, ongasaphumi lathi ezimpini zethu?
11 Ke ke tuku kiate kimautolu ʻae tokoni mei he mamahi: he ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ʻae tokoni ʻae tangata.
Ake usisize ezitheni zethu, ngoba usizo lomuntu luyize.
12 Ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻOtua te tau fai mālohi ai: he ko ia ia te ne malaki hifo hotau ngaahi fili.
Nxa siloNkulunkulu sizanqoba, njalo uzazinyathelela phansi izitha zethu.
