Saame 95

1 Haʻu, ketau hiva kia Sihova: ketau kalanga ʻi he fiefia ki he maka ʻo ʻetau moʻui.

O come, let us sing unto Yhwh: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.

2 Ketau haʻu ki hono ʻao mo e fakafetaʻi, mo kalanga ʻi he fiefia kiate ia ʻaki ʻae ngaahi saame.

Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.

3 He ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua lahi, pea ko e Tuʻi lahi hake ia ʻi he ngaahi ʻotua kotoa pē.

For Yhwh is a great God, and a great King above all gods.

4 ‌ʻOku ʻi hono nima ʻae ngaahi potu māʻulalo ʻo māmani: ko e mālohi ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga ʻoku ʻoʻona foki.

In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.

5 ‌ʻOku ʻoʻona ʻae tahi, he naʻa ne ngaohi ia: pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe hono nima ʻae fonua mōmoa.

The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.

6 Haʻu, ketau lotu mo punou: ketau tūʻulutui ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko hotau tupuʻanga.

O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before Yhwh our maker.

7 He ko hotau ʻOtua ia; pea ko e kakai ʻakitautolu ʻo ʻene ngoue, mo e fanga sipi ʻa hono nima. Ko e ʻaho ni, ʻo kapau te mou fanongo ki hono leʻo,

For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,

8 “ʻOua naʻa mou fakafefeka homou loto, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻi he fakahouhau lahi, pea ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe ʻahiʻahi ʻi he toafa:

Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

9 ‌ʻAia naʻe ʻahiʻahiʻi au ʻe hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, pea nau ʻahiʻahi kiate au, ʻonau mamata ki heʻeku ngāue.

When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.

10 Naʻaku fehiʻa ki he toʻutangata ko ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu, pea naʻaku pehē, ‘Ko e kakai eni ʻoku hē ʻi honau loto, pea ʻoku ʻikai te nau ʻilo hoku ngaahi hala:

Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:

11 Pea ne u fuakava kiate kinautolu ʻi hoku houhau, ‘ʻE ʻikai tenau hū ki hoku mālōlōʻanga.’”

Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.
