Saame 42

1As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God.
1‌ʻOKU hangē ko e holi ʻae hainiti ki he ngaahi tafeʻanga vai, ʻoku pehē ʻae holi ʻa hoku laumālie kiate koe, ʻE ʻOtua.
2My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God?
2‌ʻOku holi hoku laumālie ki he ʻOtua, ki he ʻOtua moʻui: te u hoko ʻafē ʻo fakahā au ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua?
3My tears have been my food day and night, while they say to me all the day long, “Where is your God?”
3Ko ʻeku meʻakai ʻi he ʻaho mo e pō ʻa hoku ngaahi loʻimata, lolotonga ʻoku nau pehē maʻuaipē kiate au, “Ko e fē ho ʻOtua?”
4These things I remember, as I pour out my soul: how I would go with the throng and lead them in procession to the house of God with glad shouts and songs of praise, a multitude keeping festival.
4‌ʻI heʻeku manatu ki he ngaahi meʻa ni, ʻoku ou lilingi hoku laumālie ʻiate au: he naʻaku faʻa ʻalu mo e tokolahi, naʻaku ʻalu mo kinautolu ki he fale ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻi he leʻo ʻoe fiefia mo e fakafetaʻi, mo e tokolahi naʻe tauhi ʻae ʻaho tapu.
5Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation
5Ko e hā ʻoku ke mapelu ai ki lalo, ʻE hoku laumālie? pea ko e hā kuo ke maveuveu ai ʻi loto ʻiate au? Ke ke ʻamanaki lelei ki he ʻOtua? He ko e moʻoni te u fakafetaʻi kiate ia ʻi he ngaahi fakamoʻui ʻo hono fofonga.
6and my God. My soul is cast down within me; therefore I remember you from the land of Jordan and of Hermon, from Mount Mizar.
6‌ʻE hoku ʻOtua, ʻoku mapelu ki lalo hoku laumālie ʻi loto ʻiate au: ko ia te u manatu ai kiate koe mei he fonua ʻo Sioatani, pea mo Heamoni, mo e moʻunga siʻi ko Maisa.
7Deep calls to deep at the roar of your waterfalls; all your breakers and your waves have gone over me.
7‌ʻOku ui ʻae loloto ki he loloto ʻi he longoaʻa ʻo hoʻo ngaahi ʻahiohio vai: ʻoku lōmakiʻi au ʻe hoʻo ngaahi peau kotoa pē mo hoʻo ngaahi ngalu.
8By day the LORD commands his steadfast love, and at night his song is with me, a prayer to the God of my life.
8Ka ko e moʻoni ʻe fekau mai ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻene ʻaloʻofa ʻi he ʻaho, pea ʻe ʻiate au ʻene hiva ʻi he poʻuli, mo ʻeku lotu ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku moʻui.
9I say to God, my rock: “Why have you forgotten me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?”
9Te u pehē ki he ʻOtua ko hoku makatuʻu, “Ko e hā kuo ke fakangaloʻi ai au? Ko e hā ʻoku ou ʻalu mamahi pē ʻi he taʻomia ʻe he fili?”
10As with a deadly wound in my bones, my adversaries taunt me, while they say to me all the day long, “Where is your God?”
10Ko e manuki ʻa hoku ngaahi fili, ʻoku hangē ko e heletā kuo uhu ki hoku ngaahi hui; ʻi heʻenau pehē mai kiate au ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē, “Ko e fē ho ʻOtua?”
11Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation and my God.
11Ko e hā ʻoku ke mapelu ai ki lalo, ʻE hoku laumālie? Pea ko e hā ʻoku ke maveuveu ai ʻi loto ʻiate au? Ke ke ʻamanaki lelei ki he ʻOtua: he ko e moʻoni te u fakafetaʻi kiate ia, ʻaia ko e fakamoʻui ʻo hoku mata, mo hoku ʻOtua.
