Psalms 3
1 [A Psalm by David, when he fled from Absalom his son.] LORD, how my adversaries have increased. Many rise 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 there are who say 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 But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
Aka, o oe, e Iehova, ka paku no'u; O ko'u nani, ka mea nana kuu poo e hapai.
4 I cried out to the LORD with my voice, and he answered me from his holy mountain. (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 lay down and slept. I awoke, for the LORD 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 ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.
Aole au e makau aku i na umi tausani o kanaka, O ka poe e ku e mai ia'u a puni.
7 Arise, LORD. Save me, my God. For you slap all my enemies in the face. You break 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 Salvation belongs to the LORD. Your blessing is upon your people. (Selah)
No Iehova ke ola; O kou hoomaikai ana maluna iho o kou poe ohua. (Sila)
