< Psalms 54 >

1 Unto the end. In verses, the understanding of David, when the Ziphites had arrived and they said to Saul, “Has not David been hidden with us?” Save me, O God, by your name, and judge me in your virtue.
E KE Akua, e hoola mai oe ia'u ma kou inoa; A e hoopono mai ia'u ma kou ikaika.
2 O God, listen to my prayer. Pay attention to the words of my mouth.
E ke Akua, e hoolohe mai i ka'u pule; E haliu mai i ka pepeiao i na olelo a kuu waha:
3 For strangers have risen up against me, and the strong have sought my soul. And they have not set God before their eyes.
No ka mea, ua ku e mai ia'u na kanaka e, A ke imi nei i kuu uhane na mea hooluhihewa; Aole lakou i hoonoho i ke Akua i mua o ko lakou alo. (Sila)
4 For behold, God is my helper, and the Lord is the protector of my soul.
Eia hoi, o ke Akua ko'u kokua; O ka Haku oia pu me ka poe kokua i ko'u uhane.
5 Turn back the evils upon my adversaries, and ruin them by your truth.
E uku auanei oia i ka ino maluna o ka poe ku e ia'u; E oki iho oe ia lakou i kou oiaio.
6 I will freely sacrifice to you, and I will confess your name, O God, because it is good.
E mohai oluolu aku au nou; E hoelea aku au ia oe, e Iehova, no ka mea, he pono ia.
7 For you have quickly rescued me from all tribulation, and my eye has looked down upon my enemies.
No ka mea, ua hoopakele oia ia'u i ka popilikia a pau; A ua nana ae nei ko'u maka i ko'u poe enemi.
