Samoan
Le Atua soifua e, le Tama, le ona le mana ma le malosi,
le ua tumu i le agalelei, o le puna foi o mea moni uma,
ua e faatoaatoaina lo matou fiafiaga faapea lo matou ola saili’ili ia matou tapuaiga ma le ola tautua i lau afio. Fesoasoani ina ia tumau lo matou faatuatuaga.
Ia maua foi le malosi e galulue faatasi ai i le mana o le Agaga Paia, e pei ona papatisoina ai i matou e molimauina lau talalelei; e ala lo matou faaola o Iesu Keriso,
Amene.
Tongan
’E tamai mafimafi m ta’engata
Ko koe ‘ae mo’oni pea moe kelesi fuape.
‘oku fonu homau loto ‘ihe fiefia,
‘o ‘oatu ‘e mau faka feta’i moe hu, koe faka mo’oni ki ho’o ‘afio,
Faka malohi’i mo faka ivia ange ‘emau tui,
‘aki ‘ae laumalie koia homau papitaiso,
Kemau kei talaki ‘ae ongoongo lelei
‘ia sisu kalaisi ko homau faka mo’ui
‘Ameni
