Saame 83
1 Ko e Hiva pe ko e Saame ʻa ʻAsafi. ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa ke fakalongo pē: ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa ke taʻeʻafioʻi, pea ʻoua naʻa ke nofo pē.
A song. A psalm of Asaph. God, do not be silent! Do not ignore us and remain unmoved, God.
2 Vakai, ʻoku fakatupu maveuveu ʻe ho ngaahi fili: pea ko kinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate koe kuo nau hiki hake honau ʻulu.
Look, your enemies are making a commotion, and those who hate you have raised their heads.
3 Naʻa nau alea fakalilolilo ki hoʻo kakai, pea nau fakakaukau fakataha ki he kakai ʻoku ke maluʻi.
They conspire against your people and plan together against your protected ones.
4 Naʻa nau pehē, “Haʻu, ketau fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ke ʻoua naʻa toe ui ʻakinautolu ko e puleʻanga; ke ʻoua naʻa kei manatu ki he hingoa ʻo ʻIsileli.”
They have said, “Come, and let us destroy them as a nation. Then the name of Israel will no longer be remembered.”
5 He kuo nau fakakaukau ʻi he loto taha: ʻoku nau fuakava ʻo angatuʻu kiate koe:
They have schemed together with one strategy; against you they have made an alliance.
6 Ko e ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻo ʻItomi, mo e kau ʻIsimeʻeli; ʻa Moape, mo e hako ʻo Hekaʻā;
This includes the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, and the people of Moab and the Hagrites, who plot together with
7 ʻA Kepale, mo ʻAmoni, mo ʻAmaleki, ko e kau Filisitia mo e kakai ʻo Taia;
Gebal, Ammon, Amalek; it also includes Philistia and the inhabitants of Tyre.
8 ʻOku fakataha mo kinautolu foki ʻa ʻAsilia: kuo nau tokoni ki he fānau ʻa Lote. (Sila)
Assyria also is allied with them; they are helping the descendants of Lot. (Selah)
9 Fai kiate kinautolu ʻo hangē ko hoʻo fai ki he kau Mitiani; ʻo hangē ko Sisela, mo Sapini, ʻi he vaitafe ʻo Kisoni:
Do to them as you did to Midian, as you did to Sisera and to Jabin at the Kishon River.
10 ʻAia naʻe ʻauha ʻi Enitoa: naʻa nau hoko ʻo hangē ko e kinohaʻa ki he kelekele.
They perished at Endor and became like manure for the earth.
11 Ngaohi honau ngaahi ʻeiki ke hangē ko Olipi, pea tatau mo Siipi: ʻio, ʻa ʻenau houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻo hangē ko Sipaa, mo Salimuna.
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, and all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna.
12 ʻAia naʻa nau pehē, “Ketau maʻu ʻae ngaahi fale ʻoe ʻOtua moʻotautolu.”
They said, “Let us take for ourselves the pastures of God.”
13 ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ke ke ngaohi ʻakinautolu ke hangē ko e teka; ke hangē ko e veve ʻoku vilingia ʻi he matangi.
My God, make them like the whirling dust, like chaff before the wind,
14 ʻO hangē ko e vela ʻoe vao ʻakau ʻi he afi, pea hangē kuo tutu ʻae ngaahi moʻunga ʻe he ulo afi.
like the fire that burns the forest, and like the flame that sets the mountains on fire.
15 Ke fakatanga pehē ʻakinautolu ʻaki hoʻo fuʻu taufa, pea fakamanavahēʻi ʻakinautolu ʻaki hoʻo afā.
Chase them with your strong wind, and terrify them with your windstorm.
16 ʻE Sihova, fakafonu honau mata ʻi he mā; koeʻuhi kenau kumi ki ho huafa.
Fill their faces with shame so that they might seek your name, Yahweh.
17 Tuku kenau puputuʻu mo mamahi ʻo taʻengata; ʻio, tuku ke mā mo ʻauha ʻakinautolu.
May they be put to shame and be terrified forever; may they perish in disgrace.
18 Koeʻuhi ke ʻilo ʻe he kakai ko koe, ko ho huafa ʻoʻou ko Sihova, ko e Fungani Māʻolunga ʻi māmani kotoa pē.
Then they will know that you alone, Yahweh, are the Most High over all the earth.
