1–14 Ko e teunga mo e lelei ʻoe siasi.

Ko e Hiva mo e Saame ki he ngaahi foha ʻo Kola.

1‌ʻOku lahi ʻa Sihova, pea ʻoku lelei ke fakamālō lahi kiate ia,

ʻi he kolo ʻa hotau ʻOtua, ʻi he moʻunga ʻo ʻene māʻoniʻoni.

2Ko e tuʻunga matamatalelei ʻae moʻunga ko Saione,

ko e fiefiaʻanga ʻo māmani kotoa pē,

ʻoku ʻi hono potu tokelau ʻae kolo ʻoe Tuʻi lahi.

3‌ʻOku ʻilo ʻae ʻOtua ko e hūfanga ʻi hono ngaahi fale lahi ʻo ia.

4Pea vakai, naʻe fakataha ʻae ngaahi tuʻi,

naʻa nau ʻalu atu fakataha.

5Naʻa nau mamata ai, pea nau ofo;

naʻa nau mamahi,

pea hola.

6Naʻe tuia ʻakinautolu ʻi ai ʻi he manavahē,

mo e mamahi, ʻo hangē ko e fefine ʻoku langā.

7‌ʻOku ke maumauʻi ʻae ngaahi vaka ʻo Tasisi ʻaki ʻae matangi hahake.

8Hangē ko ia naʻa mau fanongo, kuo pehē ʻemau mamata

ʻi he kolo ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ʻi he kolo ʻa hotau ʻOtua:

ʻe fakatuʻumaʻu ia ʻe he ʻOtua ʻo taʻengata. Sila.

9Kuo mau manatu ki hoʻo ʻaloʻofa, ʻE ʻOtua,

ʻi ho loto faletapu.

10‌ʻO hangē ko ho huafa, ʻE ʻOtua,

ʻoku pehē ho ongoongolelei ki he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo māmani;

ʻoku pito ho nima toʻomataʻu ʻi he māʻoniʻoni.

11Tuku ke fiefia ʻae moʻunga ko Saione,

tuku ke nekeneka ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Siuta,

ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo ngaahi fakamaau.

12Mou ʻeveʻeva takatakai ʻi Saione, ʻo ʻalu fakatakamilo ʻiate ia:

lau hono ngaahi fale māʻolunga ʻo ia.

13Mou vakai lelei ki hono ngaahi puke,

tokanga ki hono ngaahi fale lahi;

koeʻuhi ke mou tala ia ki he toʻutangata ʻe hoko.

14“He ko e ʻOtua ni ko hotau ʻOtua ʻo lauikuonga pea taʻengata:

te ne tauhi ʻakitautolu ʻo aʻu ki he mate.”
