Saame 50

1The Mighty One, God the LORD, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting.
1KUO folofola ʻa Sihova, ko e ʻOtua Māfimafi, ʻo ui ki māmani ki he potu hopoʻanga ʻoe laʻā ʻo aʻu atu ki hono tōʻanga.
2Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines forth.
2Mei Saione, ko e fungani ʻoe matamatalelei haohaoa, kuo ulo ʻae ʻOtua.
3Our God comes; he does not keep silence; before him is a devouring fire, around him a mighty tempest.
3‌ʻE hāʻele mai hotau ʻOtua, pea ʻe ʻikai fakalongo pē: ʻe fakaʻauha ʻe he afi ʻi hono ʻao, pea ʻe takatakai ia ʻe he afā lahi.
4He calls to the heavens above and to the earth, that he may judge his people:
4Te ne ui ki he ngaahi langi mei ʻolunga, pea ki māmani, koeʻuhi ke ne fakamaau hono kakai.
5“Gather to me my faithful ones, who made a covenant with me by sacrifice!”
5“Tānaki fakataha kiate au ʻeku kakai māʻoniʻoni; ʻakinautolu kuo fai ʻae fuakava mo au ʻi he feilaulau.”
6The heavens declare his righteousness, for God himself is judge!Selah
6Pea ʻe fakahā ʻe he ngaahi langi ʻene māʻoniʻoni: he ko e ʻOtua pē ko e fakamaau. Sila.
7“Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, I will testify against you. I am God, your God.
7“Fanongo mai, ʻE hoku kakai, pea te u lea; pea te u fakapapau kiate koe, ʻE ʻIsileli: ko au ko e ʻOtua, ʻio, ko ho ʻOtua.
8Not for your sacrifices do I rebuke you; your burnt offerings are continually before me.
8‌ʻE ʻikai te u valokiʻi koe koeʻuhi ko hoʻo ngaahi feilaulau, pe ko hoʻo ngaahi feilaulau tutu, ke fai maʻu pe ʻi hoku ʻao.
9I will not accept a bull from your house or goats from your folds.
9‌ʻE ʻikai te u toʻo ha pulu mei ho fale, pe ha kosi tangata mei ho ngaahi lotoʻā.
10For every beast of the forest is mine, the cattle on a thousand hills.
10He ʻoku ʻaʻaku ʻae manu kotoa pē ʻoe vao, mo e fanga manu ʻi he moʻunga ʻe afe.
11I know all the birds of the hills, and all that moves in the field is mine.
11‌ʻOku ou ʻilo ʻae manupuna kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga: pea ʻoku ʻaʻaku ʻae ngaahi manu kaivao kotoa pē ʻoe ngoue.
12“If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world and its fullness are mine.
12“Kapau te u fiekaia, ʻe ʻikai te u tala kiate koe: he ʻoku ʻaʻaku ʻa māmani, mo hono mahu ʻo ia.
13Do I eat the flesh of bulls or drink the blood of goats?
13He te u kai ʻeau ʻae kakano ʻoe fanga pulu tangata, pe inu ʻae toto ʻoe fanga kosi?
14Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving, and perform your vows to the Most High,
14‌ʻAtu ʻae fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua; mo ke fai hoʻo ngaahi fuakava ki he Fungani Māʻolunga:
15and call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me.”
15Pea ke ui kiate au ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe mamahi: te u fakamoʻui koe, pea te ke fakaongoongoleleiʻi au.”
16But to the wicked God says: “What right have you to recite my statutes or take my covenant on your lips?
16Ka ʻoku pehē ʻe he ʻOtua ki he angakovi, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke kau ai koe ke tala ʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea ke ʻai ʻi ho ngutu ʻeku fuakava?
17For you hate discipline, and you cast my words behind you.
17He ʻoku ke fehiʻa ki he akonaki, mo ke liʻaki ʻeku ngaahi lea ki ho tuʻa.
18If you see a thief, you are pleased with him, and you keep company with adulterers.
18‌ʻI hoʻo mamata ki ha kaihaʻa, naʻa ke loto leva kiate ia, pea naʻa ke kau mo e kau tono fefine.
19“You give your mouth free rein for evil, and your tongue frames deceit.
19“ʻOku ke tuku ho ngutu ki he kovi, pea ʻoku fakatupu ʻe ho ʻelelo ʻae kākā.
20You sit and speak against your brother; you slander your own mother’s son.
20‌ʻOku ke nofo ʻo lauʻikoviʻi ho tokoua; ʻoku ke fakakoviʻi ʻae tama ʻa hoʻo faʻē ʻaʻau.
21These things you have done, and I have been silent; you thought that I was one like yourself. But now I rebuke you and lay the charge before you.
21Naʻa ke fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, pea ne u fakalongo pē; naʻa ke mahalo ʻoku ou hangē tofu pe ko koe: ka te u valokiʻi koe, ʻo fokotuʻu ia ʻi ho ʻao.
22“Mark this, then, you who forget God, lest I tear you apart, and there be none to deliver!
22Ko eni, mou tokanga ki he meʻa ni, ʻakimoutolu ʻoku fakangalongaloʻi ʻae ʻOtua, telia naʻaku haehae ke fakaikiiki ʻakimoutolu, pea ʻe ʻikai ha taha ke fakamoʻui.
23The one who offers thanksgiving as his sacrifice glorifies me; to one who orders his way rightly I will show the salvation of God!”
23“Ko ia ʻoku ne ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi ʻoku ne fakaongoongoleleiʻi au: pea ko ia ʻoku ne fakatonutonu hono hala te u fakahā kiate ia ʻae fakamoʻui ʻoe ʻOtua.”
