Saame 15

1 Ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. ‌ʻE Sihova, ko hai te ne nofo ʻi ho fale fehikitaki? Ko hai te ne nofomaʻu ʻi ho moʻunga māʻoniʻoni?

A Psalm of David. O Lord, who shall sojourn in your tabernacle? and who shall dwell in your holy mountain?

2 Ko ia ia ʻoku ʻeveʻeva ʻi he angatonu, pea ngāue ʻi he māʻoniʻoni, mo lea ʻaki ʻae moʻoni ʻi hono loto.

He that walks blameless, and works righteousness, who speaks truth in his heart.

3 Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai lauʻikovi ʻaki hono ʻelelo, pe fai kovi ki hono kaungāʻapi, pe toʻo hake ʻae lea kovi ki hono kaungāʻapi.

Who has not spoken craftily with is tongue, neither has done evil to his neighbour, nor taken up a reproach against them that lived nearest to him.

4 ‌ʻAia ʻoku kovi ki hono mata ʻae tangata fai kovi; ka ʻoku ne fakaʻapaʻapa kiate kinautolu ʻoku manavahē kia Sihova. ʻOku ne fuakava, pea kovi ai ia, ka ʻe ʻikai liliu ai.

In his sight an evil-worker is set at nothing, but he honours them that fear the Lord. He swears to his neighbour, and disappoints [him] not.

5 Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ʻange ʻene ngaahi paʻanga koeʻuhi ko e totongi, pe toʻo ʻe ia ʻae totongi ke fai kovi ki he māʻoniʻoni. Ko ia ʻoku ne fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni ʻe ʻikai ueʻi ia ʻo taʻengata.

He has not lent his money on usury, and has not received bribes against the innocent. He that does these things shall never be moved.
