Psalms 63
1 A Psalm of David, when he was in the Wilderness of Judah. O God, You are my God. Earnestly I seek You; my soul thirsts for You. My body yearns for You in a dry and weary land without water.
E KE Akua, o oe no ko'u Akua, e imi koke no au ia oe; Ke makewai nei no hoi ko'u uhane nou, Ke iini nei ko'u kino ia oe i ka aina maloo, Me ka makewai, ma kahi wai ole;
2 So I have seen You in the sanctuary and beheld Your power and glory.
I ike au i kou mana a me kou nani, Me a'u i ike ai ia oe maloko o kahi hoano.
3 Because Your loving devotion is better than life, my lips will glorify You.
No ka mea, ua oi aku ka pono o kou lokomaikai mamua o ke ola nei, E hoolea aku ko'u mau lehelehe ia oe.
4 So I will bless You as long as I live; in Your name I will lift my hands.
Pela e hoomaikai aku ai au ia oe i ko'u ola nei; I kou inoa, e hapai ai au i ko'u mau lima.
5 My soul is satisfied as with the richest of foods; with joyful lips my mouth will praise You.
E maona auanei ko'u uhane me he mea la he ono loa a me ka momona; Me na lehelehe olioli e hoolea aku ai ko'u waha;
6 When I remember You on my bed, I think of You through the watches of the night.
I ko'u hoomanao ana ia oe ma kuu wahi moe, Me ka manaonao ia oe i na wati o ka po.
7 For You are my help; I will sing for joy in the shadow of Your wings.
No ka mea, ua lilo oe i kokua no'u; Nolaila, ma ka malu o kou mau eheu, e hauoli aku ai au.
8 My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me.
Ke hahai ikaika nei ko'u uhane mamuli ou; Ke kokua paa mai nei kou lima akau ia'u.
9 But those who seek my life to destroy it will go into the depths of the earth.
Aka, o ka poe imi mai i kuu uhane e pepehi mai, E komo lakou i ko lalo mau wahi o ka honua.
10 They will fall to the power of the sword; they will become a portion for foxes.
E haule lakou i ka pahikaua; E lilo lakou i waiwai kaili no na alopeke.
11 But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by Him will exult, for the mouths of liars will be shut.
Aka, e olioli ke alii ike Akua; E hauoli hoi na mea a pau i hoohiki ma o na la, Aka, e hoopaaia ka waha o ka poe olelo wahahee.
