Saame 73
1 Ko e Saame ʻa ʻAsafi. Ko e moʻoni ʻoku angalelei ʻae ʻOtua ki ʻIsileli, ʻio, kiate kinautolu ʻoku loto maʻa.
Hakika Mungu ni mwema kwa Israeli, kwa wale walio na moyo safi.
2 Ka ko au naʻe meimei mole hoku vaʻe: naʻaku meimei hekea ʻi heʻeku ngaahi laka.
Lakini kwangu mimi, kidogo tu miguu yangu iteleze; miguu yangu karibu iteleze kutoka kwangu
3 He naʻaku meheka ʻi he kau vale, ʻi heʻeku mamata ki he fiemālie ʻae angakovi.
kwa sababu niliwaonea wivu wenye kiburi nilipoona mafanikio ya waovu.
4 He ʻoku ʻikai hanau mamahi ʻi heʻenau mate: ka ʻoku maʻu pe honau mālohi.
Kwa maana hawana maumivu hadi kufa kwao, lakini wana nguvu na wameshiba.
5 ʻOku ʻikai moʻua ʻi he mamahi ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e kakai kehe; pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e kakai niʻihi.
Wako huru dhidi ya mizigo ya watu wengine; nao hawateswi kama watu wengine.
6 Ko ia ʻoku takatakai ai ʻakinautolu ʻe he laukau ʻo hangē ko e ukamea fihifihi; ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ʻakinautolu ʻe he angamālohi ʻo hangē ko e kofu.
Kiburi kinawapamba kama mkufu kwenye shingo zao; jeuri huwavika kama vazi.
7 ʻOku hohopo honau mata ʻi heʻenau sino: ʻoku nau maʻu meʻa ʻo lahi hake ʻi he holi ʻoe loto.
Katika upofu wa jinsi hii dhambi huja; mawazo maovu hupita mioyoni mwao.
8 Kuo kovi ʻakinautolu, pea lea kovi ʻi he fakamālohi: ʻoku nau lea fakafiefielahi.
Wao hudhihaki na kuongea kwa namna ya uovu; kwa kiburi chao hutishia mateso.
9 ʻOku nau hangatonu atu honau ngutu ʻo angatuʻu ki he ngaahi langi, pea ʻoku ʻeveʻeva honau ʻelelo ʻi māmani.
Wameweka vinywa vyao dhidi ya mbingu, na ndimi zao hutanga tanga duniani.
10 Ko ia ʻoku liu mai ai ki heni hono kakai: pea ʻoku tatau ʻae vai kiate kinautolu ke pito ʻae ipu.
Kwa hiyo watu wake huwageukia na maji yaliyojaa hukaushwa.
11 Pea ʻoku nau pehē, “ʻOku ʻilo fēfē ʻe he ʻOtua? Pea ʻoku ai ha ʻilo ʻi he Fungani Māʻolunga?”
Nao husema, “Mungu anajuaje? Yako maarifa kwake yeye aliye juu?”
12 Vakai, ko eni ʻae kau angakovi ʻoku fiemālie ʻi he māmani; ʻoku tupu pē ʻenau koloa.
Fahamu: watu hawa ni waovu; mara zote hawajali, wakifanyika matajiri na matajiri.
13 Ko e moʻoni ʻoku taʻeʻaonga ʻeku fakamaʻa hoku loto, mo ʻeku fanofano hoku nima ʻi he māʻoniʻoni.
Hakika nimeutunza moyo wangu bure na nimenawa mikono yangu pasipo kukosa.
14 He kuo ʻahiʻahiʻi au ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, pea kuo tautea au ʻi he pongipongi kotoa pē,
Maana mchana kutwa nimeteswa na kuadhibiwa kila asubuhi.
15 Kapau te u tala, te u lea pehē; vakai, ko ʻeku fai hala ki he toʻutangata ʻo hoʻo fānau.
Kama ningesema, “Ningesema mambo haya,” kumbe nigewasaliti kizazi hiki cha watoto wenu.
16 Pea ʻi heʻeku ʻahiʻahi ke ʻilo ʻae meʻa ni, naʻe faingataʻa ia kiate au;
Ingawa nilijaribu kuyaelewa mambo haya, yalikuwa ni magumu sana kwangu.
17 Ka ʻi heʻeku hū ki he faletapu ʻoe ʻOtua; naʻaku toki ʻilo ai honau ikuʻanga.
Ndipo nilipoingia patakatifu pa Mungu na kuelewa hatma yao.
18 Ko e moʻoni naʻa ke tuku ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi potu hekeheke: kuo ke laku hifo ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi fakaʻauha.
Hakika wewe huwaweka penye utelezi; huwaangusha mpaka palipoharibika.
19 Kuo ʻomi vave ʻakinautolu ki he malaʻia, ʻo hangē ko e kemo pe taha ʻoe mata! Kuo fakaʻauha ʻaupito ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngaahi ilifia.
Jinsi gani wamekuwa ukiwa kwa muda mfupi! Wamefika mwisho nao wamemaliza kwa utisho.
20 Hangē ko e misi ʻoka ʻā hake ha taha; ke pehē pe, ʻE ʻEiki, ʻoka ke ka ʻā hake, te ke manukiʻi honau tatau.
Wao ni kama ndoto wakati wa mtu kuamka; Bwana, utakapo inuka, utazidharau ndoto zao.
21 Naʻe mamahi pehē pe hoku laumālie, pea naʻe mahuhuhuhu ai hoku loto.
Maana moyo wangu ulipata uchungu, nami nilijeruhiwa sana.
22 Naʻe pehē ʻeku vale, pea naʻe ʻikai te u ʻilo: naʻaku hangē ko e manu ʻi ho ʻao.
Nilikuwa mjinga na sijui neno; nilikuwa kama mnyama tu mbele yako.
23 Ka ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou ʻiate koe maʻuaipē: pea kuo ke puke au ʻi hoku nima toʻomataʻu.
Lakini mimi nipo pamoja nawe daima; umenishika mkono wa kuume.
24 Te ke tataki au ʻi hoʻo poto, pea hili ia te ke maʻu au ki ho nāunau.
Utaniongoza kwa shauri lako na baadaye utanipokea katika utukufu.
25 He ko hai mo koe ʻoku ou maʻu ʻi he loto langi? Pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻi māmani ʻoku ou holi ki ai, ka ko koe pē.
Ni nani niliye naye mbinguni isipokuwa wewe? Hakuna nimtamaniye duniani isipokuwa wewe.
26 ʻOku vaivai hoku kakano mo hoku loto: ka ko e makatuʻu ʻo hoku loto ʻae ʻOtua, mo hoku ʻinasi ʻo taʻengata.
Mwili wangu na moyo wangu huwa dhaifu, bali Mungu ndiye nguvu ya moyo wangu daima.
27 Vakai, ʻe ʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻoku mamaʻo ʻiate koe: kuo ke fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu meiate koe ʻo fai kovi.
Wale walio mbali nawe wataangamia; utawaangamiza wote wasio waaminifu kwako.
28 Ka ʻoku lelei kiate au ʻeku ʻunuʻunu ke ofi ki he ʻOtua: kuo u falala ki he ʻEiki ko Sihova, koeʻuhi ke u fakahā ai hoʻo ngāue kotoa pē.
Lakini mimi, linipasalo kufanya ni kumkaribia Mungu. Nimemfanya Bwana Yahwe kimbilio langu. Nami nitayatangaza matendo yako yote.
