Saame 62
1 Ki he Takimuʻa ko Situtuni, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. Ko e moʻoni ʻoku tatali hoku laumālie ki he ʻOtua: ʻoku meiate ia hoku fakamoʻui.
To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David. Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him [cometh] my salvation.
2 Ko ia pē ko hoku makatuʻu mo hoku fakamoʻui; ko hoku hūfanga ia; ʻe ʻikai faʻa ueʻi lahi au.
He only [is] my rock and my salvation; [he is] my defense; I shall not be greatly moved.
3 ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa mo hoʻomou kei filioʻi kovi ki he tangata? ʻe tāmateʻi ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē: te mou hangē ko e ʻā kuo malele, mo e ʻā ʻoku tuʻu tetetete.
How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing wall [shall ye be], [and as] a tottering fence.
4 ʻOku nau fakakaukau ke tulaki hifo ia mei heʻene lelei: ʻoku nau fiemālie pe ʻi he loi: ʻoku nau tāpuaki ʻaki honau ngutu, ka ʻoku nau kape ʻi loto. (Sila)
They only consult to cast [him] down from his excellence: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. (Selah)
5 ʻE hoku laumālie, ke ke tatali pe ki he ʻOtua; he ʻoku meiate ia ʻeku ʻamanaki lelei.
My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation [is] from him.
6 Ko ia pe ko hoku makatuʻu mo hoku fakamoʻui: ko hoku hūfanga ia; ʻe ʻikai faʻa ueʻi au.
He only [is] my rock and my salvation: [he is] my defense; I shall not be moved.
7 ʻOku ʻi he ʻOtua ʻa hoku fakamoʻui mo ʻeku fiefia: ko e makatuʻu ʻo hoku mālohi, mo hoku hūfanga ʻoku ʻi he ʻOtua.
In God [is] my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, [and] my refuge, [is] in God.
8 Falala maʻuaipē kiate ia; ʻakimoutolu ʻae kakai, lilingi homou loto ʻi hono ʻao: ko e hūfanga ʻae ʻOtua kiate kitautolu. (Sila)
Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God [is] a refuge for us. (Selah)
9 Ko e moʻoni ko e meʻa vaʻinga pe ʻae kau tangata māʻulalo, pea ko e meʻa loi ʻae kau tangata māʻolunga: kapau ʻe ʻai ki he meʻa fakamamafa, ʻoku nau maʻamaʻa lahi hake kotoa pē ʻi he meʻa vaʻinga.
Surely men of low degree [are] vanity, [and] men of high degree [are] a lie: to be laid in the balance, they [are] altogether [lighter] than vanity.
10 ʻOua naʻa falala ki he fakamālohi pea ʻoua naʻa viki ʻi he kaihaʻa: kapau ʻoku tupu ʻae koloa, ʻoua naʻa tuku homou loto ki ai.
Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart [upon them].
11 Kuo folofola ʻae ʻOtua ʻo tuʻo taha; pea naʻe tuʻo ua ʻa ʻeku fanongo eni; ʻoku ʻi he ʻOtua ʻae mālohi.
God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power [belongeth] to God.
12 Pea ʻoku ʻiate koe foki, ʻE ʻEiki, ʻae ʻaloʻofa: he ʻoku ke ʻange ki he tangata taki taha kotoa pē ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene ngāue.
Also to thee, O LORD, [belongeth] mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
