< Psalms 97 >

1 The Lord reigns! Let the earth be glad, and distant lands be full of joy!
KE noho aupuni nei o Iehova, e hauoli mai ka honua; E olioli hoi ka lehulehu o kona mau mokupuni.
2 He is surrounded by clouds and thick darkness; his throne is founded on justice and right.
Ua puni oia i na ao, a me ka pouli; O ka pono, a me ka hooponoponoia, oia ke kumu o kona nohoalii.
3 Flames proceed him, burning up his enemies on every side.
Ke hele aku nei ke ahi ma kona alo, A hoopau no oia koua poe enemi a puni.
4 His flashes of lightning light up the world; the earth watches and trembles.
Hoomalamalama mai la kona mau uwila i ke ao nei; Ike aku la ka honua, a haalulu iho la.
5 The mountains melt like wax in the presence of the Lord, before the Lord of all the earth.
Hehee wale na mauna me he kepau la i ke alo o Iehova, I ke alo o ka Haku hoi o ka honua a pau.
6 The heavens proclaim his goodness; everyone sees his glory.
Ua hoike mai na lani i kona pono, Ua ike aku no hoi na lahuikanaka i kona nani
7 All those who worship idols are humiliated, those who are proud of their idols—for all “gods” bow down before him.
E hoohilahilaia ka poe a pau i malama i na kiikalaiia, Ka poe a pau i kaena ma na'kua wahahee: E hoomana oukou ia ia, e na'kua a pau.
8 Jerusalem hears this and celebrates; all the towns of Judah are happy because of your judgments, Lord.
Lohe ae la o Ziona, a hauoli mai la; Olioli no hoi na kaikamahine o ka Iuda, No kou hoopopono ana, e Iehova.
9 For you, Lord, are the highest of all, ruling over the whole earth; your position is far above any other god.
No ka mea, o oe, o Iehova, ka mea kiekie maluna o ka honua a pau; Ua hookiekieia oe maluna loa o na'kua a pau.
10 You who love the Lord, hate evil! He protects the lives of those who are faithful to him, and saves them from the power of wicked people.
E ka poe aloha ia Iehova, e inaina aku oukou i ka hewa; E malama no oia i ka uhane o kona poe haipule, Hoopakele no oia ia lakou i ka lima o ka poe hewa.
11 Light shines on those who do good, giving joy to those who live right.
Ua luluia ka malamalama no ka poe pono, A me ka olioli hoi no ka poe pololei ma ka naau.
12 Be happy in the Lord, you who do right, and thank him for his holy nature!
E ka poe pono, e hauoli oukou ia Iehova; A e hooho hauoli hoi i ka hoomanao aua i kona pono.
