4 ʻI he fakaʻosiʻosi ʻo e ngaahi ʻahó,*
Ko e moʻunga ʻo e fale ʻo Sihová+
ʻE fokotuʻu maʻu ia ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he tumutumu ʻo e ngaahi moʻungá,
Pea ʻe mahiki hake ia ʻi he ngaahi foʻi māʻolungá,
Pea ʻe tafe ki ai+ ʻa e ngaahi kakai.
2 Pea ʻe ʻalu atu ʻa e ngaahi puleʻanga lahi mo nau pehē:
“Mou haʻu ke tau ʻalu hake ki he moʻunga ʻo Sihová
Pea ki he fale ʻo e ʻOtua ʻo Sēkopé.+
Te ne fakahinohino kiate kitautolu ʻo fekauʻaki mo ʻene ngaahi foungá,
Pea te tau ʻaʻeva ʻi hono ngaahi halá.”
Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻalu atu ʻa e laó* mei Saione,
Pea mo e folofola ʻa Sihová mei Selusalema.
3 Te ne fai ha fakamaau ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo e ngaahi kakai lahi+
Mo fakatonutonu ʻa e ngaahi meʻa fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi puleʻanga mālohi ʻi he mamaʻó.
Te nau tuki ʻenau ngaahi heletaá ke hoko ko e ngaahi mataʻi-palau
Pea mo ʻenau ngaahi taó ke hoko ko e ngaahi hele ʻauhani.+
ʻE ʻikai hiki ʻe ha puleʻanga ha heletā ki ha puleʻanga,
Pea ʻe ʻikai te nau toe ako tau.+
4 Te nau tangutu* taki taha ʻi hono lalo kālepi pea ʻi hono lalo fiki,+
Pea ʻe ʻikai ha taha te ne ʻai kinautolu ke nau ilifia,+
He kuo folofolaʻaki ia ʻe Sihova ʻo e ngaahi kau tau.
5 He ko e ngaahi kakai kotoa pē te nau ʻaʻeva ʻi he huafa ʻo honau ʻotuá,
Ka te tau ʻaʻeva kitautolu ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova ko hotau ʻOtuá+ ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata.
6 “ʻI he ʻaho ko iá,” ko e fakahaaʻi ia ʻe Sihová,
“Te u fakatahatahaʻi mai ʻa e tokotaha* naʻe heké,
Pea tānaki fakataha mai ʻa e tokotaha naʻe fakamovetevete atú,+
Fakataha mo e faʻahinga naʻá ku fakafeangai anga-kakaha ki aí.
7 Te u ʻai ʻa e tokotaha* naʻe heké ko ha toenga,+
Pea mo e tokotaha naʻe fakamavaheʻi mamaʻó ke hoko ko ha puleʻanga mālohi;+
Pea ʻe pule ʻa Sihova ko e tuʻi kiate kinautolu ʻi Moʻunga Saione,
Mei he taimí ni ʻo taʻengata.
8 Ko e meʻa kiate koé, ʻe taua ʻo e tākangá,
ʻA e foʻi tafunga ʻo e ʻofefine ʻo Saioné,+
ʻE haʻu ia kiate koe, ʻio, ʻe haʻu ʻa e ʻuluaki* pulé,+
ʻA e puleʻanga ʻoku maʻu ʻe he ʻofefine ʻo Selusalemá.+
9 Ko eni ko e hā ʻokú ke kaila leʻo-lahi aí?
Kuo ʻikai koā ke ʻi ai hao tuʻi,
Pe kuo ʻauha koā ʻa ho tokotaha faleʻí,
ʻO maʻunimā ai koe ʻe he langaá ʻo hangē ha fefine fāʻelé?+
10 Kenu pea mo toʻe, ʻe ʻofefine ʻo Saione,
ʻO hangē ha fefine fāʻelé,
He ko eni te ke hiki mei he koló ʻo nofo ʻi he vaó.
Te ke ʻalu ʻo aʻu ki Pāpilone,+
Pea ʻe fakahaofi+ koe ʻi ai;
ʻE fakatau fakafoki mai koe ʻe Sihova ʻi ai, mei he nima ʻo ho ngaahi filí.+
11 Ko eni ʻe fakatahataha ha ngaahi puleʻanga lahi ke tuʻu kiate koe;
Te nau pehē, ‘Tuku ke ʻuliʻi ia,
Pea tuku ke sio hotau matá ki he hoko ʻa e meʻá ni ki Saioné.’
12 Ka ʻoku ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻa e ngaahi fakakaukau ʻa Sihová,
ʻOku ʻikai te nau mahinoʻi ʻa ʻene taumuʻá;*
He te ne fakatahatahaʻi kinautolu ʻo hangē ha ngaahi haʻinga uite ne toki tutuʻu mai ki he ʻauʻauʻanga uité.
13 Tuʻu hake ʻo ʻauʻau ʻa e uité, ʻe ʻofefine ʻo Saione;+
He te u liliu ho ngaahi meʻatuí ko ha ukamea,
Pea te u liliu ho ngaahi topuvaʻé ko ha kopa,
Pea te ke laiki ʻa e ngaahi kakai lahi.+
Te ke līʻoa atu ʻenau tupu ʻoku maʻu ʻi he taʻefaitotonú kia Sihova,
Pea mo ʻenau ngaahi koloá ki he ʻEiki moʻoni ʻo e māmaní kotoa.”+
