1 ‌ʻOku monūʻia ia ʻaia kuo fakamolemole ʻa ʻene talangataʻa, pea kuo ʻufiʻufi ʻene angahala.

2 ‌ʻOku monūʻia ʻae tangata ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai lau ki ai ʻe Sihova ha hia,

pea ʻoku ʻikai ha kākā ʻi hono laumālie.

3 ‌ʻI heʻeku fakalongo pē, naʻe fakaʻaʻau ʻo motuʻa hoku ngaahi hui ʻi heʻeku tangi ʻi he ʻaho kotoa.

4 He naʻe mamafa ho nima kiate au ʻi he ʻaho mo e pō:

naʻe liliu hoku huhuʻa ko e laʻāina ʻoe faʻahitaʻu mafana. Sila.

5 Naʻaku vete ʻeku angahala kiate koe,

pea naʻe ʻikai te u fufū ʻeku hia.

Naʻaku pehē, te u vete ʻeku ngaahi talangataʻa kia Sihova:

pea naʻa ke fakamolemole ʻae hia ʻo ʻeku angahala. Sila.

6 Ko ia ʻe lotu ai kiate koe ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku anga fakaʻotua ʻi he kuonga ʻe ʻiloʻi ai koe:

ko e moʻoni ʻi he ʻoho mai ʻoe ngaahi vai lahi ʻe ʻikai tenau aʻu ʻo ofi kiate ia.

7 Ko koe ko hoku toitoiʻanga;

te ke fakamoʻui au mei he mamahi;

pea te ke kāpui ʻaki au ʻae ngaahi hiva ʻoe fakamoʻui. Sila.

8 Ko au te u fakapotoʻi koe mo akonakiʻi koe ʻi he hala ʻaia te ke ʻalu ai:

te u fakahinohino koe ʻaki hoku mata.

9 ‌ʻOua naʻa mou hangē ko e hoosi mo e miuli, ʻoku masiva ʻi he ʻilo:

ʻaia ʻoku taʻofi ʻaki honau ngutu ʻae ukamea mo e noʻo, koeʻuhi ke nau haʻu ʻo ofi kiate koe.

10 ‌ʻE hoko ʻae ngaahi mamahi lahi ki he kakai angakovi:

ka ko ia ʻoku falala kia Sihova, ʻe kāpui ʻaki ia ʻae ʻaloʻofa.

11 Mou fiefia ʻia Sihova, pea nekeneka, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku māʻoniʻoni:

pea kalanga ʻi he fiefia, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku angatonu ʻi loto.
