Psalms 61

1 Unto the end. With hymns, of David. O God, pay attention to my supplication. Be attentive to my prayer.

E HOOLOHE mai, e ke Akua, i ko'u kahea ana; E maliu pono mai i ka'u pule.

2 I cried out to you from the ends of the earth. When my heart was in anguish, you exalted me on a rock. You have led me,

Mai ka welau o ka honua e kahea aku ai au ia oe, I ka paumako o ko'u naau; E alakai oe ia'u i ka pohaku kiekie maluna o'u.

3 for you have been my hope, a tower of strength before the face of the enemy.

No ka mea, ua lilo mai oe i paku no'u; He halekaua paa imua o ka enemi.

4 I will dwell in your tabernacle forever. I will be protected under the cover of your wings.

E noho wau maloko o kou halelewa a mau loa: E kanaho au ma ka hoomalu ana o kou mau eheu. (Sila)

5 For you, my God, have listened to my prayer. You have granted an inheritance to those who fear your name.

No ka mea, ua lohe oe, e ke Akua, i ka'u mau mea i hoohiki ai: Ua haawi mai hoi oe ia'u i ka hooilina o ka poe weliweli i kou inoa.

6 You will add days to the days of the king, to his years, even to the time of generation after generation.

E hooloihi no oe i na la o ke alii: A i kona mau makahiki ia hanauna aku ia hanauna aku.

7 He remains in eternity, in the sight of God. Who will long for his mercy and truth?

E noho ia imua o ke Akua a mau loa; E hoomakaukau mai oe i ke aloha a me ka oiaio, e ola'i ia.

8 So I will compose a psalm to your name, forever and ever, so that I may repay my vows from day to day.

Pela, e himeni mau loa aku au i kou inoa, E hooko aku i kela la i keia la i ka'u mau mea i berita ai.
