1 ʻOku lotu ʻa Tevita ke moʻui ia mei hono ngaahi fili. 6 ʻOku hanu ia ʻi heʻenau fai fakamamahi. 8 ʻOku ne falala ki he ʻOtua. 11 ʻOku lotu ia telia ʻakinautolu, 16 Pea fakamālō ki he ʻOtua.
Ki he Takimuʻa, ʻAli-Tasikiti, ko e Saame mahuʻinga ʻa Tevita, ʻi he fekau ʻa Saula ke nau leʻohi ʻae fale ke tāmateʻi ia.
1 ‌ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ke ke fakahaofi au mei hoku ngaahi fili:
maluʻi au meiate kinautolu ʻoku tuʻu hake kiate au.
2 Ke ke fakahaofi au mei he kau fai kovi mo ke fakamoʻui au mei he kau tangata pani toto.
3 Vakai, ʻoku nau tatali ʻo lama ki hoku laumālie:
ʻE Sihova, kuo kātoa fakataha ʻae kau mālohi kiate au:
ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻi heʻeku talangataʻa, pe ko ʻeku angahala.
4 ‌ʻOku nau feleleʻi ʻo teuʻi ʻakinautolu, ka ʻoku ʻikai haʻaku kovi:
ke ke ʻā ke tokoni au, pea ke ʻafioʻi.
5 Pea ko koe, ʻE Sihova, ko e ʻOtua, ʻoe ngaahi tokolahi, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli,
ke ke ʻā hake ʻo ʻahiʻahi ki he hiteni kotoa pē:
ʻoua naʻa ke ʻaloʻofa ki he kau angakovi kākā.
Sila.
6 ‌ʻOku nau liu mai ʻi he efiafi: ʻoku nau longoaʻa ʻo hangē ko e kulī,
pea ʻalu fakatakamilo ʻi he kolo.
7 Vakai, ʻoku nau hake ʻi honau ngutu:
ʻoku ʻi honau loungutu ʻae ngaahi heletā:
he ʻoku nau pehē, “ko hai ʻoku ne fanongo?”
8 Ka ko koe, ʻE Sihova, te ke kata kiate kinautolu;
te ke manuki ki he hiteni kotoa pē.
9 Pea koeʻuhi ko ʻene mālohi ko ia te u tatali ai kiate koe:
he ko hoku hūfanga ʻae ʻOtua.
10 Ko e ʻOtua ʻoku ʻaloʻofa kiate au te ne tokoni au:
ʻe tuku kiate au ʻe he ʻOtua ke u mamata ki heʻeku holi ki hoku ngaahi fili.
11 ‌ʻOua naʻa ke tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu, telia naʻa ngalo ʻi hoku kakai;
fakahēʻi ʻakinautolu ke mamaʻo ʻi ho mālohi;
pea ʻohifo ki lalo ʻakinautolu, ʻE ʻEiki, ko homau fakaū.
12 Ko e meʻa ʻi he angahala ʻa honau ngutu, mo e ngaahi lea ʻa honau loungutu,
tuku ke moʻua ai ʻakinautolu ʻi heʻenau laukau:
koeʻuhi ko e kape mo e loi ʻoku nau lea ʻaki.
13 Fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻi he houhau,
fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ke ʻoua naʻa kei ai ʻakinautolu:
pea tuku ke ʻilo ʻekinautolu ʻoku pule, ʻae ʻOtua, ʻia Sēkope,
ʻo aʻu ki he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo māmani.
Sila.
14 Pea tuku kenau liu mai ʻi he efiafi;
tuku kenau longoaʻa ʻo hangē ko e kulī, ʻo ʻalu fakatakamilo ʻi he kolo.
15 Tuku kenau ʻalu ʻo hē fano ai pē ʻo kumi kai,
pea lāunga ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai tenau mākona.
16 Ka te u hiva au ki ho mālohi;
ʻio, te u hiva mālohi ʻi hoʻo ʻaloʻofa ʻi he pongipongi:
he ko hoku ungaʻanga koe,
mo e hūfanga kiate au ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻeku mamahi.
17 ‌ʻE hoku mālohi, te u hiva kiate koe:
he ko hoku kalofanga ʻae ʻOtua, ko e ʻOtua ʻoku ʻaloʻofa kiate au.
