1Te u hiva ʻaki ʻae ʻaloʻofa mo e fakamaau:

‌ʻE Sihova, te u hiva kiate koe.

2Te u fai fakapotopoto ʻi he hala haohaoa.

Te ke hāʻele mai ʻafē kiate au?

Te u ʻeveʻeva ʻi hoku fale ʻi he loto haohaoa.

3‌ʻE ʻikai te u tuku ha meʻa kovi ʻi hoku ʻao:

ʻoku ou fehiʻa ki he ngāue ʻanautolu kuo nau afe;

ʻE ʻikai pipiki ia kiate au.

4‌ʻE ʻalu ʻiate au ʻaia ʻoku loto kovi:

ʻE ʻikai te u ʻiloʻi ha taha ʻoku kovi.

5Ko ia ʻoku fakakovi fakafufū hono kaungāʻapi, te u tuʻusi ia:

ko ia ʻoku fiematamuʻa mo loto laukau ʻe ʻikai te u kātakiʻi.

6‌ʻE sio maʻu hoku mata ki he kakai angatonu ʻi he fonua,

koeʻuhi ke mau nonofo mo au:

ko ia ʻoku ʻeveʻeva ʻi he hala haohaoa,

ko ia ia ʻe tauhi au.

7Ko ia ʻoku ne fai kākā ʻe ʻikai nofo ia ʻi hoku fale:

ko ia ʻoku faʻa loi ʻe ʻikai te ne nofo ʻi hoku ʻao.

8‌ʻE vave ʻeku fakaʻauha ʻae kau angahala kotoa pē ʻoe fonua;

koeʻuhi ke u tuʻusi ʻae kakai fai kovi kotoa pē mei he kolo ʻa Sihova.
