10 “Mou kole kia Sihova ki ha ʻuha ʻi he taimi ʻuha ʻo e faʻahitaʻu failaú.
Ko Sihova ia ʻokú ne ngaohi ʻa e ngaahi konga ʻao ʻo e matangí,
ʻOkú ne huaʻi hifo ʻa e ʻuha kiate kinautolu,+
Pea foaki ʻa e ʻakau ʻi he vaó ki he tokotaha kotoa pē.
2 He ko e ngaahi ʻīmisi telafimí* kuo nau leaʻaki ʻa e kākā;*
Pea ko e kau vavaló kuo nau vīsone ʻaki ha loi.
ʻOku nau lea ʻo fekauʻaki mo e ngaahi misi ʻoku ʻikai hano ʻaonga,
Pea ko e kulanoa ʻenau feinga ke fai ha fakafiemālié.
Ko e ʻuhinga ia te nau ʻalu fano holo ai hangē ha fanga sipí.
Te nau faingataʻaʻia, he ʻoku ʻikai ha tauhi-sipi.
3 ʻOku kakaha ʻeku houhaú ki he kau tauhi-sipí,
Pea te u kounaʻi ha fakamatala mei he kau takimuʻa anga-fakaaoaó;*
He kuo tokanga ʻa Sihova ʻo e ngaahi kau tau ki heʻene tākangá,+ ki he fale ʻo Siutá,
Pea kuó ne ʻai kinautolu ʻo hangē haʻane hoosi lāngilangiʻia ʻi he taú.
4 ʻOku haʻu meiate ia ʻa e takí,*
ʻOku haʻu meiate ia ʻa e tokotaha pule ʻoku poupou kiate ia,*
ʻOku haʻu meiate ia ʻa e kaufana ki he taú;
ʻOku ʻalu atu meiate ia ʻa e taki ngāue* kotoa pē, ʻa kinautolu hono kotoa.
5 Pea te nau hoko ʻo hangē ha kau pāteʻi taú,
ʻO nau tāmalaki hifo ʻa e pelepela ʻo e ngaahi halá ʻi he taú.
Te nau faitau, he ʻoku kau ʻa Sihova mo kinautolu;+
Pea ko e kau tangata heka hoosi ko honau ngaahi filí ʻe fakamaaʻi.+
6 Te u ʻai ʻa e fale ʻo Siutá ke māʻolunga,
Pea ko e fale ʻo Siosifá te u fakahaofi.+
Te u toe fakafoki mai kinautolu,
He te u fakahāhā kiate kinautolu ʻa e meesi;+
Pea ʻe hangē pē naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito te u siʻaki kinautolú;+
He ko au Sihova ko honau ʻOtuá, pea te u fai ha tali kiate kinautolu.
7 Ko e faʻahinga ʻo ʻIfalemí kuo pau ke nau hoko ʻo hangē ha tokotaha toʻa ʻi he taú,
Pea ko honau lotó ʻe fiefia ʻo hangē naʻa nau inu uainé.+
ʻE sio honau ngaahi fohá ki he meʻá ni mo nau fiefia;
ʻE fiefia honau lotó ʻia Sihova.+
8 ‘Te u mapu kiate kinautolu ʻo tānaki fakataha mai kinautolu;
He te u huhuʻi kinautolu,+ pea te nau hoko ʻo tokolahi,
Pea ʻe hokohoko atu ʻenau tokolahí.
9 Neongo ʻoku ou fakamovetevete atu kinautolu ʻo hangē ha tengaʻi ʻakaú ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo e ngaahi kakaí,
Te nau manatuʻi au ʻi heʻenau ʻi he ngaahi feituʻu mamaʻó;
Te nau toe maʻu ha ivi foʻou fakataha mo honau ngaahi fohá pea nau toe foki mai.
10 Te u fakafoki mai kinautolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipité
Pea fakatahatahaʻi mai kinautolu mei ʻAsīlia;+
Te u ʻomi kinautolu ki he fonua ko Kiliatí+ mo Lepanoni,
Pea heʻikai ke kei maʻu ha feituʻu maʻanautolu.+
11 Kuo pau ke ne fou atu ʻi he tahí mo e tuputāmaki;
Pea ʻi he tahí te ne taaʻi hifo ʻa e ngaahi peaú;+
ʻE mōmoa ʻa e ngaahi loloto kotoa ʻo Nailá.
ʻE tuku hifo ʻa e pōlepoleʻanga ʻo ʻAsīliá,
Pea ʻe mole atu+ ʻa e sēpita ʻa ʻIsipité.
