Psalms 10
1 Why standest Thou afar off, O LORD? Why hidest Thou Thyself in times of trouble?
NO ke aha la oe e ku ai i kahi loihi aku, e Iehova? A e huna ai ia oe iho i ka manawa popilikia?
2 Through the pride of the wicked the poor is hotly pursued, they are taken in the devices that they have imagined.
O ka mea hewa, i kona hookano, Ua hoomaau mai oia i ka mea ilihune: E puni lakou i ka manao a lakou i noonoo ai.
3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and the covetous vaunteth himself, though he contemn the LORD.
No ka mea, ua hookelakela ka mea hewa i ka makemake o kona naau, A i ke ko ana, ua hoomaikai, a ua hoowahawaha aku ia Iehova.
4 The wicked, in the pride of his countenance, saith: 'He will not require'; all his thoughts are: 'There is no God.'
O ka mea hewa, aole ia e pule, no ka haaheo o kona maka; Aole ke Akua i kona manao a pau.
5 His ways prosper at all times; Thy judgments are far above out of his sight; as for all his adversaries, he puffeth at them.
Ua hewa mau kona mau aoao; O kau mau oihana, maluna lilo no ia aole ikea ia ia; A o kona mau enemi, ua puhi aku oia ia lakou.
6 He saith in his heart: 'I shall not be moved, I who to all generations shall not be in adversity.'
Ua olelo oia iloko o kona naau, Aole loa au e hoonaueia; Aole au e popilikia ia hanauna aku ia hanauna aku.
7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and oppression; under his tongue is mischief and iniquity.
Ua piha kona waha i ke amuamu, ka wahahee, a me ka hoopunipuni; Malalo ae o kona alelo ke kolohe a me ka mea lapuwale.
8 He sitteth in the lurking-places of the villages; in secret places doth he slay the innocent; his eyes are on the watch for the helpless.
Ua noho ia ma kahi hoomakaakiu o na kauhale; A i kahi nalowale i pepehi wale ai ia i ka mea hala ole; Ua haka malu aku kona mau maka i ka mea ilihune.
9 He lieth in wait in a secret place as a lion in his lair, he lieth in wait to catch the poor; he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him up in his net.
Kali malu iho la ia me he liona la iloko o kona lua: Moemoe malu ia e hopu i ka mea ilihune: Ua hoohei no oia ia ia i kona alakai ana ia ia iloko o kana upena.
10 He croucheth, he boweth down, and the helpless fall into his mighty claws.
Ua kolo iho la ia, ua hoohaahaa ia ia iho, I haule iho ka poe ilihune i kona mea ikaika.
11 He hath said in his heart: 'God hath forgotten; He hideth His face; He will never see.'
Ua olelo iho la ia iloko o kona naau, Ua hoopoina ke Akua; Ua huna oia i kona maka, aole loa ia e ike mai.
12 Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up Thy hand; forget not the humble.
E ku mai oe, e Iehova; E hapai oe i kou lima, e ke Akua; Mai hoopoina mai i ka poe haahaa.
13 Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God, and say in his heart: 'Thou wilt not require'?
No ke aha la ka mea ino i hoowahawaha ai i ke Akua? Ua olelo no oia iloko o kona naau, Aole oe e hoopai mai.
14 Thou hast seen; for Thou beholdest trouble and vexation, to requite them with Thy hand; unto Thee the helpless committeth himself; Thou hast been the helper of the fatherless.
Ua ike mai no oe, ua nana mai i ke kolohe a me ka huhu, I hoopai mai ia mea me kou lima; O ka mea ilihune ua waiho aku oia ia ia iho ia oe; O oe no ka mea nana ka mea makua ole i kokua mai.
15 Break Thou the arm of the wicked; and as for the evil man, search out his wickedness, till none be found.
E uhai oe i ka lima o ke kanaka hewa ke kolohe; E hoopai i kona hewa a pau ia i ka nalo ia oe.
16 The LORD is King for ever and ever; the nations are perished out of His land.
O Iehova, oia ke Alii mau loa: Ua make aku ko na aina e mailoko aku o kona aina.
17 LORD, Thou hast heard the desire of the humble: Thou wilt direct their heart, Thou wilt cause Thine ear to attend;
E Iehova, ua lohe oe i ka makemake o ka poe haahaa: E hoomakaukau ana oe i ko lakou naau, E hoolohe mai ana no kou pepeiao;
18 To right the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may be terrible no more.
E hoopono mai i ka mea makua ole a me ka mea i hooluhihewaia, I hooluhihewa hou ole mai ke kauaka o ka honua.
