Saame 83
1 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.
Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
2 Vakai, ʻoku fakatupu maveuveu ʻe ho ngaahi fili: pea ko kinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate koe kuo nau hiki hake honau ʻulu.
For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3 Naʻa nau alea fakalilolilo ki hoʻo kakai, pea nau fakakaukau fakataha ki he kakai ʻoku ke maluʻi.
They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4 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.”
They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5 He kuo nau fakakaukau ʻi he loto taha: ʻoku nau fuakava ʻo angatuʻu kiate koe:
For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
6 Ko e ngaahi fale fehikitaki ʻo ʻItomi, mo e kau ʻIsimeʻeli; ʻa Moape, mo e hako ʻo Hekaʻā;
The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7 ʻA Kepale, mo ʻAmoni, mo ʻAmaleki, ko e kau Filisitia mo e kakai ʻo Taia;
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 ʻOku fakataha mo kinautolu foki ʻa ʻAsilia: kuo nau tokoni ki he fānau ʻa Lote. (Sila)
Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. (Selah)
9 Fai kiate kinautolu ʻo hangē ko hoʻo fai ki he kau Mitiani; ʻo hangē ko Sisela, mo Sapini, ʻi he vaitafe ʻo Kisoni:
Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
10 ʻAia naʻe ʻauha ʻi Enitoa: naʻa nau hoko ʻo hangē ko e kinohaʻa ki he kelekele.
Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
11 Ngaohi honau ngaahi ʻeiki ke hangē ko Olipi, pea tatau mo Siipi: ʻio, ʻa ʻenau houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻo hangē ko Sipaa, mo Salimuna.
Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
12 ʻAia naʻa nau pehē, “Ketau maʻu ʻae ngaahi fale ʻoe ʻOtua moʻotautolu.”
Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
13 ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ke ke ngaohi ʻakinautolu ke hangē ko e teka; ke hangē ko e veve ʻoku vilingia ʻi he matangi.
O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
14 ʻO hangē ko e vela ʻoe vao ʻakau ʻi he afi, pea hangē kuo tutu ʻae ngaahi moʻunga ʻe he ulo afi.
As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
15 Ke fakatanga pehē ʻakinautolu ʻaki hoʻo fuʻu taufa, pea fakamanavahēʻi ʻakinautolu ʻaki hoʻo afā.
So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
16 ʻE Sihova, fakafonu honau mata ʻi he mā; koeʻuhi kenau kumi ki ho huafa.
Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O Yhwh.
17 Tuku kenau puputuʻu mo mamahi ʻo taʻengata; ʻio, tuku ke mā mo ʻauha ʻakinautolu.
Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
18 Koeʻuhi ke ʻilo ʻe he kakai ko koe, ko ho huafa ʻoʻou ko Sihova, ko e Fungani Māʻolunga ʻi māmani kotoa pē.
That men may know that thou, whose name alone is Yhwh, art the most high over all the earth.
