Psalms 36
1 To the Chief Musician. Of the Servant of Yahweh—of David. Declareth the transgression of the lawless one, within my heart, There is, no dread of God, before his eyes;
O KA lawehala ana o ka mea hewa, oia ke olelo iloko o ko'u naau, Aohe weliweli i ke Akua imua o kona alo.
2 For he flattereth himself [too much] in his own eyes, to find his iniquity—to hate [it].
No ka mea, malimali oia ia ia iho imua o kona mau maka iho, A ikeia kona hewa he mea e hoowahawahaia.
3 The words of his mouth, are iniquity and deceit, he hath left off to show discretion by doing well:
O na olelo a kona waha he hewa ia a me ka hoopunipuni: Ua haalele oia i ka naauao a me ka hana maikai.
4 Iniquity, deviseth he upon his bed, —he taketh his stand in a way, not good, Wrong, doth he not abhor!
Kukakuka oia i ka hewa maluna o kona wahi moe; Ke ku nei no hoi ia ma ka aoao pono ole: Aole ia i hoowahawaha i ka hewa.
5 O Yahweh! in the heavens, is thy lovingkindness, Thy faithfulness, as far as the fleecy clouds:
O kou aloha, e Iehova, aia no i ka lani; A o kou oiaio, e hiki aku no ia i ke ao.
6 Thy righteousness, is like mighty mountains, and, thy just decrees, are a great resounding deep, —Man and beast, thou savest, O Yahweh!
O kou pono na like ia me na kuahiwi o ke Akua; A o kou hooponopono ana he moana nui no ia; Ua malama oe i ke kanaka a me ka holoholona.
7 How precious thy lovingkindness, O God, —Therefore, the sons of men, under the shadow of thy wings, seek refuge:
Nani ka hemolele o kou lokomaikai, e ke Akua! Nolaila, e kanaho ai na keiki a kanaka i ka malu o kou mau eheu.
8 They abundantly relish the fatness of thy house, —And out of the full stream of thine own pleasures, thou givest them to drink.
E oluolu loa lalkou i ka mea momona o kou hale; A e hoohainu oe ia lakou i ko ka muliwai o ka olioli nou.
9 For, with thee, is the fountain of life, In thy light, we see light.
No ka mea, aia no ia oe ke kumuwai o ke ola: A iloko o kou malamalama e ike ai makou i malamalama.
10 Prolong thy lovingkindness unto them who know thee, —and thy righteousness, to the upright in heart.
E hoomau oe i kou lokomaikai i ka poe ike ia oe, A me kou pono i ka poe naau pololei.
11 Let not the foot of pride reach me, nor, the hand of the lawless, scare me away.
Mai noho a pa mai ke kapuwai o ka haaheo ia'u; Aole hoi o lawe aku ka lima o ka mea hewa ia'u.
12 There did the workers of iniquity fall, —thrust down and not able to rise!
Aia ka poe hana hewa ua hina; Ua hoohioloia lakou ilalo, aole e hiki ia lakou ke ku iluna.
