1‌ʻE Sihova, kuo tupu ʻo tokolahi ʻakinautolu ʻoku fakamamahiʻi au!

ʻOku tokolahi ʻakinautolu ʻaia ʻoku tuʻu hake ʻo angatuʻu kiate au.

2‌ʻOku tokolahi ʻakinautolu ʻaia ʻoku pehē ki hoku laumālie,

“ʻOku ʻikai ha tokoni kiate ia ʻi he ʻOtua.” Sila.

3Ka ko koe, ʻE Sihova, ko e fakaū kiate au;

ko hoku nāunau, mo e hiki hake ʻa hoku ʻulu.

4Naʻaku tangi kia Sihova ʻaki hoku leʻo,

pea naʻa ne ongoʻi au mei hono moʻunga māʻoniʻoni. Sila.

5Ne u tokoto hifo ʻo mohe; pea u ʻā hake;

he ko Sihova naʻa ne tokoniʻi au.

6‌ʻE ʻikai te u manavahē ʻi he ngaahi toko mano ʻoe kakai,

ʻaia ʻoku angatuʻu ʻo kāpui au.

7Tuʻu hake, ʻE Sihova;

fakamoʻui au, ʻE hoku ʻOtua:

he kuo ke taaʻi hoku ngaahi fili kotoa pē ʻi honau hui kouʻahe

kuo ke fesiʻi ʻae kau nifo ʻoe angakovi.

8‌ʻOku ʻia Sihova ʻae fakamoʻui:

ko hoʻo tāpuaki ʻoku ʻi hoʻo kakai. Sila.
