Psalms 57
1 To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David, when he fled from Saul in the cave. Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities are past by.
Ki he Takimuʻa, ʻAli-Tasikiti, ko e Saame mahuʻinga ʻa Tevita, ʻi heʻene hola meia Saula ʻi he ʻana. Ke ke ʻaloʻofa kiate au, ʻE ʻOtua, ke ke ʻaloʻofa kiate au: he ʻoku falala hoku laumālie kiate koe: ʻio, pea te u hūfanga ʻi he malu ʻo ho kapakau, ke ʻoua ke mole ʻo ngata ʻae ngaahi kovi ni.
2 I will cry to God most high; to God that performeth all things for me.
Te u tangi ki he ʻOtua fungani māʻolunga, ki he ʻOtua ʻoku fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē maʻaku.
3 He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. (Selah) God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.
Pea te ne fekau mei he langi, ʻo fakamoʻui au, mei he lauʻikovi ʻo ia ʻoku ne fie folo au ke ʻosi. (Sila) ʻE fekau atu ʻe he ʻOtua ʻene ʻaloʻofa mo ʻene moʻoni.
4 My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
ʻOku ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fanga laione hoku laumālie: pea ʻoku ou tokoto mo kinautolu kuo vela, ʻio, ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe tangata, ko honau nifo ko e ngaahi tao mo e ngahau, pea ko honau ʻelelo ko e heletā māsila.
5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.
ʻE ʻOtua, ke māʻolunga lahi hake koe ʻi he ngaahi langi; tuku ke māʻolunga hake ho nāunau ʻi māmani kotoa pē.
6 They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have dug a pit before me, into the midst of which they have fallen themselves. (Selah)
Kuo nau teuteu ʻae kupenga ki hoku tuʻunga vaʻe; kuo mapelu ki lalo hoku laumālie: naʻa nau keli ʻae luo ʻi hoku ʻao, pea kuo tō ki ai ʻakinautolu. (Sila)
7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.
ʻOku maʻu hoku loto, ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoku maʻu hoku loto: te u hiva mo ʻatu ʻae fakamālō.
8 Awake, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
Ke ʻā hake, ʻa hoku nāunau; ʻā hake, ʻae saliteli mo e haʻape: te u ʻā hengihengi hake pe au.
9 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing to thee among the nations.
ʻE ʻEiki, te u fakamālō kiate koe ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai: te u hiva kiate koe ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga.
10 For thy mercy is great to the heavens, and thy truth to the clouds.
He ʻoku lahi hoʻo ʻaloʻofa ʻo aʻu ki he ngaahi langi, mo hoʻo moʻoni ki he ngaahi ʻao.
11 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.
ʻE ʻOtua, ke māʻolunga lahi hake koe ʻi he ngaahi langi: tuku ke māʻolunga hake ho nāunau ʻi māmani kotoa pē.
