Psalms 6
1 To the chief music-maker on corded instruments, on the Sheminith. A Psalm. Of David. O Lord, do not be bitter with me in your wrath; do not send punishment on me in the heat of your passion.
Ki he Takimuʻa ʻi he Nekina ʻi he Semini, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. ʻE Sihova, ʻoua naʻa ke valokiʻi au ʻi ho houhau, pe tautea au ʻi ho houhau vela.
2 Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am wasted away: make me well, for even my bones are troubled.
ʻAloʻofa mai kiate au, ʻE Sihova; he ʻoku ou vaivai: ʻE Sihova, fakamoʻui au he kuo mamahi hoku ngaahi hui.
3 My soul is in bitter trouble; and you, O Lord, how long?
ʻOku mamahi lahi foki mo hoku laumālie: ka ko koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻe fēfē hono fuoloa?
4 Come back, O Lord, make my soul free; O give me salvation because of your mercy.
Tafoki mai, ʻE Sihova, fakahaofi hoku laumālie: ʻoiauē, fakamoʻui au koeʻuhi ko hoʻo ʻaloʻofa.
He ʻoku ʻikai ha fakamanatu kiate koe ʻi he mate: ko hai te ne fakafetaʻi kiate koe ʻi he faʻitoka? (Sheol h7585)
6 The voice of my sorrow is a weariness to me; all the night I make my bed wet with weeping; it is watered by the drops flowing from my eyes.
Kuo u vaivai ʻi heʻeku faʻa toʻe; ʻoku ou fakatētē hoku mohenga ʻi he pō kotoa; ʻoku ou fakaviviku ʻa hoku mohenga ʻaki hoku loʻimata.
7 My eyes are wasting away with trouble; they are becoming old because of all those who are against me.
Kuo tutue hoku mata ko e meʻa ʻi he mamahi; ʻoku fakaʻaʻau ke motuʻa ia koeʻuhi ko hoku ngaahi fili.
8 Go from me, all you workers of evil; for the Lord has given ear to the voice of my weeping.
ʻAlu ʻiate au, ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku fai kovi; he kuo ongoʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae leʻo ʻo ʻeku tangi.
9 The Lord has given ear to my request; the Lord has let my prayer come before him.
Kuo fanongo ʻa Sihova ki heʻeku hū tāumaʻu; pea ʻe maʻu ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻeku lotu.
10 Let all those who are against me be shamed and deeply troubled; let them be turned back and suddenly put to shame.
Tuku ke mā mo mamahi lahi ʻa hoku ngaahi fili kotoa pē: tuku ke nau foki pea mā fakafokifā pe.
