Saame 110

1 Ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. Naʻe pehē ʻE Sihova ki hoku ʻEiki, “Nofo koe ki hoku nima toʻomataʻu, kaeʻoua ke u ngaohi ho ngaahi fili ko ho tuʻungavaʻe.”

Of David, a psalm. This said the Lord concerning my lord, ‘Sit at my right hand, till I set your foot on the neck of your foes.’

2 ‌ʻE fekau ʻe Sihova ʻae tokotoko ʻo ho mālohi mei Saione: “Ke ke pule ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ho ngaahi fili.”

On Zion the Lord is wielding your sceptre of might, and charges you to rule over the foes that surround you.

3 ‌ʻE loto matala ʻa hoʻo kakai ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ho mālohi, ʻi he ngaahi teunga matamatalelei ʻoe māʻoniʻoni mei he manāva ʻoe pongipongi: ʻoku ʻiate koe ʻae hahau ʻo hoʻo talavou.

The day that you march to battle your people will follow you gladly young warriors in holy array, like dew-drops, born of the morning.

4 Kuo fuakava ʻa Sihova, pea ʻe ʻikai liliu ia, “Ko e taulaʻeiki koe ʻo lauikuonga ʻi he lakanga ʻo Melikiseteke.”

The Lord has sworn and will not repent, ‘As for you, you are priest for ever as Melchizedek was.’

5 Ko e ʻEiki ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ho nima toʻomataʻu, te ne taaʻi ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻi he ʻaho ʻo hono houhau.

By your side will the Lord shatter kings on the day of his wrath.

6 Te ne fakamaau ʻi he ʻao ʻoe hiteni, te ne fakapito ʻae ngaahi potu ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻangaʻanga; ʻe lavea ʻiate ia ʻae ʻulu ʻoe ngaahi fonua lahi.

He will execute judgment filling the valleys with dead, the broad fields with shattered heads.

7 ‌ʻE inu ia ʻi he vaitafe ʻi he hala: ko ia te ne hiki hake ai ʻae ʻulu.

He will drink of the brook by the way, and march onward with uplifted head.
