1 Ko e lotu ʻa Tevita ke tokanga ʻae ʻEiki kiate ia. 2 ʻOku ne valoki mo enginaki ki hono ngaahi fili. 6 ʻOku ʻi he ʻOtua ʻae monūʻia ʻoe tangata.
Ki he Takimuʻa ʻi he Nekina, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita.
1 ʻO kau ka kole, fanongo mai kiate au, ʻE ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku māʻoniʻoni:
naʻa ke halahalaʻi au mei he mamahi;
ke ke ʻaloʻofa mai kiate au, pea fanongo ki heʻeku lotu.
2 ʻAe ngaahi foha ʻoe tangata, ʻe ngata ʻafē hoʻomou liliu hoku nāunau ko e meʻa fakamā?
ʻe ngata ʻafē hoʻomou ʻofa ki he meʻa vaʻinga pe, ʻo kumi ki he loi?
Sila.
3 Ka mou ʻilo kuo vaheʻi ʻe Sihova maʻana ʻaia ʻoku angalelei:
ʻe fanongo ʻe Sihova ʻo kau ka kole kiate ia.
4 Mou manavahē, pea ʻoua naʻa fai angahala:
fakakaukau mo homou loto ʻi homou mohenga, pea mou fakalongo pe.
Sila.
5 Feilaulau ʻaki ʻae ngaahi feilaulau māʻoniʻoni,
pea mou falala kia Sihova.
6 ʻOku pehē ʻe he tokolahi, “Ko hai te ne fakahā ha lelei kiate kitautolu?”
ʻE Sihova, ke ke hiki hake kiate kimautolu ʻae maama ʻo ho fofonga.
7 Kuo ke ʻai ki hoku loto ʻae fiefia lahi hake ʻi he fiefia
ʻi he kuonga naʻe tupu ʻo lahi ai ʻenau uite mo e uaine.
8 Te u tokoto hifo ʻi he fiemālie, ʻo mohe: he ko koe pē,
ʻE Sihova, ʻoku ke pule ke u nofo lelei.
