Psalms 83

1 A Canticle Psalm of Asaph. O God, who will ever be like you? Do not be silent, and do not be unmoved, O God.

Ko e Hiva pe ko e Saame ʻa ʻAsafi. ‌ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa ke fakalongo pē: ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa ke taʻeʻafioʻi, pea ʻoua naʻa ke nofo pē.

2 For behold, your enemies have sounded off, and those who hate you have carried out a head.

Vakai, ʻoku fakatupu maveuveu ʻe ho ngaahi fili: pea ko kinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate koe kuo nau hiki hake honau ʻulu.

3 They have acted with malice in counsel over your people, and they have plotted against your holy ones.

Naʻa nau alea fakalilolilo ki hoʻo kakai, pea nau fakakaukau fakataha ki he kakai ʻoku ke maluʻi.

4 They have said, “Come, let us scatter them from the nations and not allow the name of Israel to be remembered any longer.”

Naʻa nau pehē, “Haʻu, ketau fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu ke ʻoua naʻa toe ui ʻakinautolu ko e puleʻanga; ke ʻoua naʻa kei manatu ki he hingoa ʻo ʻIsileli.”

5 For they plotted unanimously. Joined together against you, they ordained a covenant:

He kuo nau fakakaukau ʻi he loto taha: ʻoku nau fuakava ʻo angatuʻu kiate koe:

6 the tabernacle of Edomites and Ishmaelites, and Moab and the Hagarites,

Ko e ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻo ʻItomi, mo e kau ʻIsimeʻeli; ʻa Moape, mo e hako ʻo Hekaʻā;

7 and Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, the foreigners among the inhabitants of Tyre.

‌ʻA Kepale, mo ʻAmoni, mo ʻAmaleki, ko e kau Filisitia mo e kakai ʻo Taia;

8 For even Assur comes with them. They have become the helpers of the sons of Lot.

‌ʻOku fakataha mo kinautolu foki ʻa ʻAsilia: kuo nau tokoni ki he fānau ʻa Lote. (Sila)

9 Do to them as you did to Midian and Sisera, just as to Jabin at the torrent of Kishon.

Fai kiate kinautolu ʻo hangē ko hoʻo fai ki he kau Mitiani; ʻo hangē ko Sisela, mo Sapini, ʻi he vaitafe ʻo Kisoni:

10 They perished at Endor, and they became like the dung of the earth.

‌ʻAia naʻe ʻauha ʻi Enitoa: naʻa nau hoko ʻo hangē ko e kinohaʻa ki he kelekele.

11 Set their leaders to be like Oreb and Zeeb, and Zebah and Zalmunna: all their leaders

Ngaohi honau ngaahi ʻeiki ke hangē ko Olipi, pea tatau mo Siipi: ʻio, ʻa ʻenau houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻo hangē ko Sipaa, mo Salimuna.

12 who said, “Let us possess the Sanctuary of God for an inheritance.”

‌ʻAia naʻa nau pehē, “Ketau maʻu ʻae ngaahi fale ʻoe ʻOtua moʻotautolu.”

13 My God, set them like a wheel, and like stubble before the face of the wind.

‌ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ke ke ngaohi ʻakinautolu ke hangē ko e teka; ke hangē ko e veve ʻoku vilingia ʻi he matangi.

14 Set them like a fire burning up the forest, and like a flame burning up the mountains.

‌ʻO hangē ko e vela ʻoe vao ʻakau ʻi he afi, pea hangē kuo tutu ʻae ngaahi moʻunga ʻe he ulo afi.

15 So will you pursue them in your tempest, and disturb them in your wrath.

Ke fakatanga pehē ʻakinautolu ʻaki hoʻo fuʻu taufa, pea fakamanavahēʻi ʻakinautolu ʻaki hoʻo afā.

16 Fill their faces with shame, and they will seek your name, O Lord.

‌ʻE Sihova, fakafonu honau mata ʻi he mā; koeʻuhi kenau kumi ki ho huafa.

17 Let them be ashamed and troubled, from age to age, and let them be confounded and perish.

Tuku kenau puputuʻu mo mamahi ʻo taʻengata; ʻio, tuku ke mā mo ʻauha ʻakinautolu.

18 And let them know that the Lord is your name. You alone are the Most High in all the earth.

Koeʻuhi ke ʻilo ʻe he kakai ko koe, ko ho huafa ʻoʻou ko Sihova, ko e Fungani Māʻolunga ʻi māmani kotoa pē.
