1 ‌ʻAe fakataha, ʻoku moʻoni ʻa hoʻomou lea māʻoniʻoni ʻakimoutolu?

ʻoku nau tatau mo e ngata tuli ʻoku ne tāpuni hono telinga;

5 ‌ʻAia ʻe ʻikai tokanga ki he leʻo ʻoe kau fakafiemālie,

6 ‌ʻE ʻOtua, ke ke sili honau kau nifo ʻi honau ngutu:

ʻE Sihova, pakiʻi ʻo toʻo kituʻa ʻae kau nifo lahi ʻoe fanga laione mui.
