Saame.
38.
Ko e Saame ʻa Tevita, ko e fakamanatu. ‌ʻE Sihova, ʻoua naʻa ke valokiʻi au ʻi ho houhau: pea ʻoua naʻa ke valokiʻi au ʻi ho houhau vela. 
He ʻoku tau maʻu ʻiate au hoʻo ngaahi ngahau, pea ʻoku taʻomia fakamamahi au ʻe ho nima. 
‌ʻOku ʻikai ha haohaoa ʻi hoku kakano ko e meʻa ʻi ho houhau; pea ʻoku ʻikai ha fiemālie ʻi hoku hui ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku angahala. 
He kuo hake ʻa ʻeku ngaahi hia ʻo ʻufiʻufi hoku ʻulu: ʻo hangē ko e kavenga mamafa ʻoku taʻomia ai au. 
‌ʻOku ʻeho hoku ngaahi lavea ʻo fakalielia koeʻuhi ko ʻeku vale. 
‌ʻOku ou mamahi; ʻoku ou mapelu ki lalo ʻaupito; ʻoku ou ʻalu mamahi pe ʻi he ʻaho kotoa. 
He ʻoku fonu hoku sino ʻi he mahaki kovi: pea ʻoku ʻikai ha moʻui haohaoa ʻi hoku kakano. 
‌ʻOku ou vaivai mo mafesi ʻi he mamahi: naʻaku kalanga ko e meʻa ʻi he mamahi ʻo hoku loto. 
‌ʻE ʻEiki, ʻoku ʻi ho ʻao ʻeku holi kotoa pē; mo ʻeku ngaahi toʻe ʻoku ʻikai fufū ʻiate koe. 
‌ʻOku tatupe hoku mafu, kuo ʻosi ʻeku mālohi: pea ko e maama ʻo hoku mata kuo mole foki ia ʻiate au. 
Ko hoku kaumeʻa ʻofa mo hoku ngaahi kāinga ʻoku nau tutuʻu ʻi he mamaʻo mei hoku teʻia; mo hoku kaungāʻapi ʻoku nau tutuʻu ʻi he mamaʻo. 
Ko kinautolu foki ʻoku kumi ki heʻeku moʻui ʻoku nau tō ʻae ngaahi tauhele kiate au: ko kinautolu ʻoku kumi ke u kovi ʻoku nau lea ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa kovi, mo nau fakakaukau ki he meʻa kākā ʻi he ʻaho kotoa. 
Ka ko au, hangē ko ha tuli, ʻoku ʻikai te u ongoʻi; pea naʻaku hangē ko e tangata ʻoku noa ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai mafaʻa hono ngutu. 
Pea naʻaku hangē ko e tangata taʻeongoʻi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha valoki ʻi hono ngutu. 
He ʻoku ou ʻamanaki lelei, ʻE Sihova, kiate koe: te ke ongoʻi, ʻE ʻEiki ko hoku ʻOtua. 
He naʻaku pehē, “Fanongo kiate au, telia naʻa nau fiefia kiate au: ʻi he hekea ʻa hoku vaʻe, ʻoku nau hiki hake ʻakinautolu kiate au.” 
He ʻoku ou meimei nofo, pea ʻoku tuʻumaʻu pe ʻeku mamahi ʻi hoku ʻao. 
He te u fakahā ʻeku hia; pea u mamahi koeʻuhi ko ʻeku angahala. 
Ka ʻoku moʻui hoku ngaahi fili, pea ʻoku nau mālohi: pea ʻoku fakaʻaʻau ʻo tokolahi ʻakinautolu ʻoku fehiʻa taʻetotonu kiate au. 
Pea ko hoku ngaahi fili foki ʻakinautolu ʻoku totongi kovi ki he lelei; koeʻuhi ʻoku ou muimui ki he lelei. 
‌ʻOua naʻa ke liʻaki au, ʻE Sihova: ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ʻoua naʻa ke mamaʻo ʻiate au. 
Ke ke fakatoʻotoʻo ke tokoni au, ʻE ʻEiki ko hoku fakamoʻui.
