37 “ʻI he meʻá ni ʻoku tatū ai hoku mafú
Pea ʻoku ngatupe mei hono feituʻú.
2 Fanongo lelei ki he ʻuʻulu ʻa hono leʻó
Pea mo e mana ʻoku haʻu mei hono fofongá.
3 ʻOkú ne tuku ange mai ia ki he lalo langí fakakātoa
Pea tuku atu ʻene ʻuhilá+ ki he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo e māmaní.
4 ʻI he hili iá ʻoku ongo mai ha ʻuʻulu;
ʻOkú ne mana mai ʻaki ha leʻo lāngilangiʻia,+
Pea ʻoku ʻikai te ne taʻofi ia ʻi he ongo mai hono leʻó.
5 ʻOku mana mai ʻaki ʻe he ʻOtuá hono leʻó+ ʻi ha founga fakaofo;
ʻOkú ne fai ha ngaahi meʻa lalahi ʻoku mahulu atu ia ʻi heʻetau mahinó.+
6 He ʻokú ne folofola ki he sinoú, ‘Tō hifo ki he māmaní,’+
Pea ki he ʻuha lōvaí, ‘Haʻaki mālohi hifo.’+
7 ʻOku hanga ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻo taʻofituʻu ʻa e ngāue kotoa ʻa e faʻahinga ʻo e tangatá*
Koeʻuhí ke ʻilo ʻa ʻEne ngāué ʻe he tangata ko e meʻa noa peé.
8 ʻOku ʻalu ʻa e fanga manu ʻo e vaó ki honau ngaahi ʻaná
ʻO nofo ʻi honau ngaahi toitoiʻangá.
9 ʻOku angi ʻa e matangi mālohí mei hono lokí,+
Pea ʻoku haʻu ʻa e momokó mei he ngaahi matangi tokelaú.+
10 ʻI he mānava ʻa e ʻOtuá, ʻoku tupu mai ai ʻa e ʻaisí,+
Pea ʻoku hoko ʻa e ngaahi vai lalahí ko e konga ʻaisi.+
11 ʻIo, ʻokú ne ʻai ke mamafa ʻa e ngaahi konga ʻaó ʻi he ngaahi tulutā vaí;
ʻOkú ne ʻai ke mafola atu ʻene ʻuhilá+ ʻi he ngaahi konga ʻaó;
12 ʻOku nau vilo takai ʻi he feituʻu ʻokú ne tataki kinautolu ki aí;
ʻOku nau fakahoko ha meʻa pē ʻokú ne tuʻutuʻuni+ ʻi he funga ʻo e māmani ʻoku nofoʻí.*
13 Tatau ai pē pe ko hono fai iá ko ha tautea*+ pe ki ha lelei maʻá e fonuá
Pe ko e ʻofa mateaki, ʻokú ne fakatupunga ia ke hoko.+
14 Fanongo ki he meʻá ni, Siope;
Kiʻi tuʻu hifo ʻo fakakaukau fakalelei ki he ngaahi ngāue fakaofo ʻa e ʻOtuá.+
15 ʻOkú ke ʻilo ʻa e anga hono puleʻi* ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa e ngaahi konga ʻaó
Pea mo e founga ʻokú ne ʻai ai ʻene ʻuhilá ke tapa mei heʻene ʻaó?
16 ʻOkú ke ʻilo ʻa e anga ʻo e tētē ʻa e ngaahi konga ʻaó?+
Ko e ngaahi ngāue fakaofo eni ʻa e Tokotaha ʻoku haohaoa ʻi he ʻiló.+
17 Ko e hā ʻoku mafana ai ho kofú
ʻI he malū ʻa e māmaní koeʻuhi ko e matangi tongá?+
18 ʻE lava ke ke kau mo ia ʻi hono ʻai ke mafola atu* ʻa e langí+
ʻO fefeka ʻo hangē ha sioʻata ukameá?
19 Tala mai ʻa e meʻa ʻoku totonu ke mau leaʻaki kiate iá;
ʻOku ʻikai lava ke mau fai ha tali koeʻuhi ʻoku mau ʻi he fakapoʻulí.
20 ʻOku totonu ke tala kiate ia ʻo pehē ʻoku ou fie fai atu ha lea?
Pe kuo leaʻaki ʻe ha taha ha meʻa ʻoku totonu ke fakahoko kiate ia?+
21 ʻOku aʻu ʻo ʻikai lava ke nau mamata ki he māmá,*
Neongo ʻene ngingila ʻi he langí,
Kae ʻoua kuo fakalaka hake ha matangi ʻo ne tafiʻi atu ʻa e ngaahi konga ʻaó.
22 ʻOku haʻu mei he tokelaú ha huelo koula,
ʻOku fakamanavahē ʻa e ngeia ʻo e ʻOtuá.+
23 Ko hono mahinoʻi ʻo e Māfimafi-Aoniú ʻoku ʻikai lava ke tau maaʻusia;+
ʻOkú ne lahi ʻi he māfimafi,+
Pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻaupito te ne maumauʻi ʻa ʻene fakamaau totonú+ mo ʻene māʻoniʻoni lahi faú.+
24 Ko ia ai, ʻoku totonu ke manavahē ʻa e kakaí kiate ia.+
He ʻoku ʻikai te ne leleiʻia ʻi ha faʻahinga ʻoku nau fakakaukau ʻoku nau poto.”*+
