Psalms 42
1ʻOku hangē ko e holi ʻae hainiti ki he ngaahi tafeʻanga vai, ʻoku pehē ʻae holi ʻa hoku laumālie kiate koe, ʻE ʻOtua.
2ʻOku holi hoku laumālie ki he ʻOtua, ki he ʻOtua moʻui: te u hoko ʻafē ʻo fakahā au ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua?
3Ko ʻeku meʻakai ʻi he ʻaho mo e pō ʻa hoku ngaahi loʻimata, lolotonga ʻoku nau pehē maʻuaipē kiate au, “Ko e fē ho ʻOtua?”
4ʻI heʻeku manatu ki he ngaahi meʻa ni, ʻoku ou lilingi hoku laumālie ʻiate au: he naʻaku faʻa ʻalu mo e tokolahi, naʻaku ʻalu mo kinautolu ki he fale ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻi he leʻo ʻoe fiefia mo e fakafetaʻi, mo e tokolahi naʻe tauhi ʻae ʻaho tapu.
5Ko e hā ʻoku ke mapelu ai ki lalo, ʻE hoku laumālie? pea ko e hā kuo ke maveuveu ai ʻi loto ʻiate au? Ke ke ʻamanaki lelei ki he ʻOtua? He ko e moʻoni te u fakafetaʻi kiate ia ʻi he ngaahi fakamoʻui ʻo hono fofonga.
6ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ʻoku mapelu ki lalo hoku laumālie ʻi loto ʻiate au: ko ia te u manatu ai kiate koe mei he fonua ʻo Sioatani, pea mo Heamoni, mo e moʻunga siʻi ko Maisa.
7ʻOku ui ʻae loloto ki he loloto ʻi he longoaʻa ʻo hoʻo ngaahi ʻahiohio vai: ʻoku lōmakiʻi au ʻe hoʻo ngaahi peau kotoa pē mo hoʻo ngaahi ngalu.
8Ka ko e moʻoni ʻe fekau mai ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa ʻi he ʻaho, pea ʻe ʻiate au ʻene hiva ʻi he poʻuli, mo ʻeku lotu ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku moʻui.
9Te u pehē ki he ʻOtua ko hoku makatuʻu, “Ko e hā kuo ke fakangaloʻi ai au? Ko e hā ʻoku ou ʻalu mamahi pē ʻi he taʻomia ʻe he fili?”
10Ko e manuki ʻa hoku ngaahi fili, ʻoku hangē ko e heletā kuo uhu ki hoku ngaahi hui; ʻi heʻenau pehē mai kiate au ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, “Ko e fē ho ʻOtua?”
11Ko e hā ʻoku ke mapelu ai ki lalo, ʻE hoku laumālie? Pea ko e hā ʻoku ke maveuveu ai ʻi loto ʻiate au? Ke ke ʻamanaki lelei ki he ʻOtua: he ko e moʻoni te u fakafetaʻi kiate ia, ʻaia ko e fakamoʻui ʻo hoku mata, mo hoku ʻOtua.
