Psalms 3
1 A PSALM OF DAVID, IN HIS FLEEING FROM THE FACE OF HIS SON ABSALOM. YHWH, how my distresses have multiplied! Many are rising up against me.
E IEHOVA, ua mahuahua ae nei ko'u poe enemi; Ua nui no hoi ka poe i ku e mai ia'u.
2 Many are saying of my soul, “There is no salvation for him in God.” (Selah)
Lehulehu na mea i olelo mai no ko'u uhane, Aole ona kokua iloko o ke Akua. (Sila)
3 And You, O YHWH, [are] a shield for me, My glory, and lifter up of my head.
Aka, o oe, e Iehova, ka paku no'u; O ko'u nani, ka mea nana kuu poo e hapai.
4 My voice [is] to YHWH: I call and He answers me from His holy hill, (Selah)
Ua kahea aku wau ia Iehova me ka'u leo; Ua hoolohe mai no ia ia'u ma kona mauna hoano. (Sila)
5 I have lain down, and I sleep, I have awoken, for YHWH sustains me.
Ua moe iho la au ilalo a hiamoe; Ua ala ae la hoi, no ko Iehova malama ana mai ia'u.
6 I am not afraid of myriads of people, That they have set against me all around.
Aole au e makau aku i na umi tausani o kanaka, O ka poe e ku e mai ia'u a puni.
7 Rise, O YHWH! Save me, my God! For You have struck all my enemies [on] the cheek. You have broken the teeth of the wicked.
E ku mai oe, e Iehova, e hoola mai ia'u, e kuu Akua; Ua pepehi oe i ko'u poe enemi a pau ma ke a; Ua uhai oe i na niho o ka poe aia.
8 This salvation [is] of YHWH; Your blessing [is] on Your people! (Selah)
No Iehova ke ola; O kou hoomaikai ana maluna iho o kou poe ohua. (Sila)
