Psalms 141
1 [A Psalm by David.] Jehovah, I have called on you. Come to me quickly. Listen to my voice when I call to you.
E IEHOVA, ke kahea aku nei au ia oe, E wikiwiki mai oe ia'u, E hooloho hoi i ka leo o ko'u kahea ana aku ia oe.
2 Let my prayer be set before you like incense; the lifting up of my hands like the evening sacrifice.
E hooliloia ka'u pule i mohai ala imua ou; A o ka hapai ana hoi o ko'u mau lima i mohai ahiahi.
3 Set a watch, Jehovah, before my mouth. Keep the door of my lips.
E hoonoho mai oe, e Iehova, i mea kiai ma kuu waha, A e malama mai hoi oe i ke pani o ko'u mau lehelehe.
4 Do not incline my heart to any evil thing, to practice deeds of wickedness with men who work iniquity. Do not let me eat of their delicacies.
Mai hoohuli ae oe i ko'u naau i kekahi mea hewa, E hana i ka hana o ka poe lawelawe, Me ka poe hana kolohe; Aole hoi au e ai i ko lakou mea ono.
5 Let the righteous strike me, it is kindness; let him reprove me, it is like oil on the head; do not let my head refuse it; Yet my prayer is always against evil deeds.
Na ka poe pono e hahau mai ia'u, he aloha ia: E ao mai oia ia'u he mea hamo maikai ia, A olo ia e wahi ai i kuu poo; No ka mea, e mau ana no ka'u pule no lakou, iloko o ko lakou pilikia.
6 Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock. They will hear my words, for they are well spoken.
Ua haule ko lakou lunakanawai ma na wahi pohaku, Ua lohe mai nae lakou i ka'u pule, no ka mea, he oluolu ia.
7 "As when one plows and breaks up the earth, our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol." (Sheol h7585)
E like me ka mea kohi a hoauauwaha i ka honua, Pela i hooheleleiia'i ko makou iwi ma ke kae o ka lua kupapau. (Sheol h7585)
8 For my eyes are on you, Jehovah. In you, I take refuge. Do not leave my soul destitute.
Aia no ia oe ko'u mau maka, o Iehova ka Haku, Ia oe no wau e hilinai aku ai; Mai waiho pu mai oe i ko'u uhane me ko ka poe nele.
9 Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, from the traps of evildoers.
E malama mai oe ia'u i ka hei a lakou i kaukau ai no'u, A me ka upena o ka poe hana hewa.
10 Let the wicked fall together into their own nets, while I pass by.
E haule ka poe hewa iloko o ko lakou hei iho, A e pakele wale aku no wau.
