< Psalms 43 >
1 Judge me, O God, and defend my cause against the vnmercifull people: deliuer mee from the deceitfull and wicked man.
E HOOPONO mai oe ia'u, e ke Akua, No'u nei hoi e hakaka'i i ka lahuikanaka aloha ole: E hoopakele ia'u i ke kanaka hooopunipuni, me ka hoopono ole.
2 For thou art the God of my strength: why hast thou put me away? why goe I so mourning, when the enemie oppresseth me?
No ka mea, o oe no ko'u Akua e ikaika ai: No ke aha la oe e hoopailua mai ia'u? No ka aha la e u hele ai au no ka hooluhihewa ana mai o ka enemi?
3 Sende thy light and thy trueth: let them leade mee: let them bring mee vnto thine holy Mountaine and to thy Tabernacles.
E hoopnka i kou malamalama a me kou oiaio: E alakai ia mau mea ia'u; A e lawe hoi ia'u i kou mauna hoano, a i kou mau halelewa.
4 Then wil I go vnto the altar of God, euen vnto the God of my ioy and gladnes: and vpon the harpe wil I giue thanks vnto thee, O God, my God.
Alaila e hele au i ke kuahu o ke Akua, I ke Akua ko'u olioli nui: Oiaio, ma ka lira e hoolea aku ai au ia oe, e ke Akua ko'u Akua.
5 Why art thou cast downe, my soule? and why art thou disquieted within mee? waite on God: for I will yet giue him thankes, he is my present helpe, and my God.
No ke aha la oe i hoohaahaaia'i, e kuu uhane? No ke aha la oe i paumako ai iloko o'u? E hoolana i ka manao i ke Akua; No ka mea, e hoolea auanei au ia ia: Oia ke ola o ko'u maka, a me kuu Akua.
