¶ 1 KOE mea i he holi ki ai ae tagata, oku ne vahe‘i ia ke ne kumi mo kau i he boto kotoabe.

2 Oku ikai fiefia ae vale i he ilo, ka koeuhi ke fakaha aki ia hono loto.

3 Oka hoko mai ae agahala oku ha‘u mo ia ae manukia, bea moe ogoogokovi moe valokia.

4 Oku hage koe gaahi vai loloto ae gaahi lea mei he gutu oe tagata, bea oku tatau ae matavai oe boto moe ba ae vaitafe.

5 Oku ikai lelei ia ke fili ki he tagata oku agahala, kae fakahiga ai ae maonioni i he fakamāu.

6 Oku kau ae lougutu oe vale i he ke, bea oku ui mai hono gutu ke ta‘i ia.

7 Koe auhaaga oe vale a hono gutu, bea koe tauhele ki hono laumalie a hono lougutu.

8 Koe gaahi lea ae tagata faa fafana oku hage ia koe gaahi makafokafo, bea oku aji mai ia ki he kakano oe loto.

9 Koia oku fakabikobiko i he ene gaue koe tokoua ia oona oku faa maumau mea.

10 Koe fale maoluga mo malohi ae huafa o Jihova: oku hola ki ai ae maonioni, o ne moui ai.

11 Koe kolo malohi ae tagata koloaia ko ene koloa, bea oku tatau ia i he ene mahalo aana moe fuu a maoluga.

12 Oku muomua i he fakaauha ae fielahi i he loto ae tagata, bea oku muomua ae agavaivai i he hakeaki‘i.

13 Ko ia oku kau ke lea i ha mea i he heeki te ne fanogo ki ai, koe vale moe fakama ia kiate ia.

14 E faa kataki‘i e he laumalie oe tagata haane vaivai; ka kohai oku faa kataki‘i ae laumalie kuo lavea?

15 Oku ma‘u e he loto oe fakamakukaga ae boto: bea oku kumi ki he ilo e he teliga oe boto.

16 Oku fakaataatā ae hala oe tagata oku faa foaki, bea oku omi ai ia ki he ao oe houeiki.

17 Ko ia oku muomua i he ene mea aana oku matamata totonu: ka i he ha‘u a hono kaugaabi oku ne ahiahi‘i ia.

18 Oku fakagatagata i he fai oe talotalo ae fakakikihi, o ne vahevahe ki he kakai malohi.

19 Oka koviia ae loto oe tokoua o ha taha, oku faigataa lahi hake ia i ha kolo oku malohi: bea koe na fekeikei oku hage ia koe gaahi sogo oe kolo.

20 E fakamakona ae kete oe tagata aki ae fua o hono gutu: bea e fakafonu ia aki aia oku tubu mei hono lougutu.

21 Oku i he elelo ae bule ki he mate moe moui: bea ko kinautolu oku ofa ki ai te nau kai a hono fua.

22 Koe tagata oku ne ma‘u hono unoho oku ma‘u eia ae lelei, oka ne ma‘u ai ae lelei i he ao o Jihova.

23 Oku fakakolekole e he majiva; ka oku tali fakamalohi e he koloaia.

24 Koe tagata oku ai hono gaahi kaiga oku gali ke ne fai fakakaiga eia; bea oku ai ae takaga oku bikitai malohi hake i ha tokoua.
