Psalms 3
1 A Psalm of David. When he fled from the face of his son, Absalom. Lord, why have those who trouble me been multiplied? Many rise up against me.
E IEHOVA, ua mahuahua ae nei ko'u poe enemi; Ua nui no hoi ka poe i ku e mai ia'u.
2 Many say to my soul, “There is no salvation for him in his God.” (Pause)
Lehulehu na mea i olelo mai no ko'u uhane, Aole ona kokua iloko o ke Akua. (Sila)
3 But you, Lord, are my supporter, my glory, and the one who raises up my head.
Aka, o oe, e Iehova, ka paku no'u; O ko'u nani, ka mea nana kuu poo e hapai.
4 I have cried out to the Lord with my voice, and he has heard me from his holy mountain. (Pause)
Ua kahea aku wau ia Iehova me ka'u leo; Ua hoolohe mai no ia ia'u ma kona mauna hoano. (Sila)
5 I have slept, and I have been stupefied. But I awakened because the Lord has taken me up.
Ua moe iho la au ilalo a hiamoe; Ua ala ae la hoi, no ko Iehova malama ana mai ia'u.
6 I will not fear the thousands of people surrounding me. Rise up, Lord. Save me, my God.
Aole au e makau aku i na umi tausani o kanaka, O ka poe e ku e mai ia'u a puni.
7 For you have struck all those who oppose me without cause. You have broken the teeth of sinners.
E ku mai oe, e Iehova, e hoola mai ia'u, e kuu Akua; Ua pepehi oe i ko'u poe enemi a pau ma ke a; Ua uhai oe i na niho o ka poe aia.
8 Salvation is of the Lord, and your blessing is upon your people. (Pause)
No Iehova ke ola; O kou hoomaikai ana maluna iho o kou poe ohua. (Sila)
