Psalms 101

1 A Psalm. Of David. I will make a song of mercy and righteousness; to you, O Lord, will I make melody.

E OLI no wau i ka lokomaikai, a me ka hoopono; Ia oe no wau, e Iehova, e hoolea aku ai.

2 I will do wisely in the way of righteousness: O when will you come to me? I will be walking in my house with a true heart.

E hana naauno no wau ma ka aoao o ka pono. Ahea la oe e hele mai ai ia'u? E holoholo no wau maloko o ko'u hale, Me ka pono o ko'u naau.

3 I will not put any evil thing before my eyes; I am against all turning to one side; I will not have it near me.

Aole au e kau i ka hewa imua o ko'u mau maka; Ua inaina aku au i ka mea hana ino, Aole ia e pili mai ia'u.

4 The false heart I will send away from me: I will not have an evil-doer for a friend.

E haalele anauei ka naau kekee ia'u, Aole au e ike aku i ke kanaka hewa.

5 I will put to death anyone who says evil of his neighbour secretly; the man with a high look and a heart of pride is disgusting to me.

O ka mea ahiahi malu i kona hoalauna, Oia ka'u e hooki aku; O ka mea maka hookiekie, a naau hookano hoi, Aole au e hoomanawanui ia ia.

6 My eyes will be on those of good faith in the land, so that they may be living in my house; he who is walking in the right way will be my servant.

Aia uo ko'u mau maka ma ka poe oiaio o ka aina, I noho mai ai lakou me au. O ka mea hele ma ka aoao o ka pono, Nana no e hookauwa mai na'u.

7 The worker of deceit will not come into my house; the false man will have no place before my eyes.

Aole e noho iloko o ko'u hale ka mea hana hoopunipuni; Aole e noho ma ko'u alo, ka mea olelo wahahee.

8 Morning by morning will I put to death all the sinners in the land, so that all evil-doers may be cut off from Jerusalem.

E hooki koke no wau i ka poe hewa a pau o ka aina, I hoopau wau i ka poe hana hewa a pau, Mai ke kulanakauhale o Iehova aku.
