Ki he Takimuʻa, ʻAli-Tasikiti, ko e Saame pe ko e Hiva ʻa ʻAsafi. ʻOku mau ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi kiate koe, ʻE ʻOtua, ʻoku mau ʻatu ʻae fakafetaʻi kiate koe: he ʻoku fakahā ʻe hoʻo ngaahi ngāue lahi ʻoku ofi ho huafa.
“ʻO kau ka maʻu ʻae fakataha te u fakamaau māʻoniʻoni.
Kuo movetevete ʻae fonua mo hono kakai:
ʻoku ou poupou hake hono ngaahi pou. Sila.
Naʻaku pehē ki he kau vale, ʻoua naʻa mou fai fakavalevale:
pea ki he kau angakovi, ʻoua te mou hiki hake ʻae nifo.
ʻOua naʻa hiki ki ʻolunga homou nifo:
ʻoua te mou lea ʻi he kia kekeva.”
He ʻoku ʻikai haʻu mei he potu hahake, pe mei he potu lulunga,
pe mei he potu tonga ʻae hakeakiʻi.
He ko e fakamaau ʻae ʻOtua:
ʻoku ʻohifo ʻe ia ʻae tokotaha, kae fokotuʻu hake ʻae tokotaha.
He ʻoku ʻi he nima ʻo Sihova ʻae ipu,
pea ʻoku kulokula ʻae uaine:
kuo pito ia ʻi he meʻa kuo huʻi ki ai;
pea ʻoku lilingi ʻe ia mei ai:
ka ko hono efe ʻo ia, ʻe tatau ia ʻe he angakovi kotoa pē ʻo māmani, ʻo inu ia.
Ka ko au te u fakahā ʻo taʻengata;
te u hiva ʻaki ʻae fakamālō ki he ʻOtua ʻo Sēkope.
Te u tutuʻu ke motu ʻae ngaahi nifo ʻoe kau angahala;
ka ʻe hakeakiʻi ʻae ngaahi nifo ʻoe kau māʻoniʻoni.
