Psalms 37
1 David’s. [An Alphabetical Psalm.] Burn not with vexation because of evil-doers, Be not envious of the workers of perversity;
MAI ukiuki oe no ka poe hana hewa; Aole hoi e huahua i na mea lawehala.
2 For, like grass, soon shall they wither, and, like green herbage, shall they fade.
No ka mea, e oki koke ia lakou e like me ka mauu, A e mae hoi e like me ka laauikiai maka.
3 Trust in Yahweh, and do good, Dwell in the land, and feed on fidelity;
E hilinai aku ia Iehova, a e hana i ka pono; A e noho no oe ma ka aina, a e hanai io ia'ku oe.
4 Yea, rest thy delight on Yahweh, that he may give thee the requests of thy heart.
E hauoli hoi oe ia Iehova, A e haawi mai no ia nou i ka makemake o kou naau:
5 Roll on Yahweh thy way, Trust also in him, and, he, will effectually work:
Hookaa aku i kou aoao ia Iehova; E hilinai aku hoi ia ia. a nana no hoi e hana.
6 So will he bring forth, as the light, thy righteousness, and thy vindication as the noonday.
A e hoopuka mai hoi oia i kou pono e like me ka malamalama, A me kou hooponoponoia e like me ka la ku pono.
7 Be resigned to Yahweh, yea wait with longing for him; Burn not with vexation at him who prospereth in his way, —at the man who doeth wickedness.
E noho malie ia Iehova, a e kali ahonui ia ia; Mai noho a ukiuki no ke kanaka e pookeokeo ana i kona aoao iho, No ke kanaka e hana ana ma na manao hewa.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath, Burn not with vexation—[it would be] only to do evil;
E waiho i ka huhu, e haalele hoi i ka inaina; Mai nauki iki e hana hewa ai.
9 For, evil doers, shall be cut off, but, as for them who wait for Yahweh, they, shall inherit the earth.
No ka mea, e okiia'ku ka poe hana hewa; Aka, o ka poe manaolana ia Iehova, e loaa ia lakou ka honua.
10 Yet a little, therefore, and the lawless one shall not be, Yea thou shalt look about, over his place—and he shall have vanished!
A liuliu iki aku, aole ka mea lawehala; Oiaio, e hoomanao ikaika oe i kona wahi, aole hoi ia.
11 But, the patient oppressed-ones, shall inherit the earth, and shall delight themselves over the abundance of prosperity.
Aka, e loaa ka honua i ka poe hoohaahaa; He hauoli lakou i ka pomaikai nui wale.
12 Plotting is the lawless one, against the just, and gnashing upon him with his teeth.
Kukakuka ku e ka mea hewa i ka mea pono, A nau iho la me kona mau niho ia ia.
13 My Lord, shall laugh at him, for he seeth, that his day, will come.
E akaaka mai no nae ka Haku ia ia; No ka mea, ua ike oia i ke kokoke ana mai o kona la.
14 A sword, have the lawless, drawn out, and have trodden their bow, —To bring down the oppressed and the needy, To slaughter the upright in life:
Ua unuhi ae la ka poe hewa i ka pahikaua, Ua lena hoi i ka lakou kakaka, E hoolilo i ka poe ilihune a me ka poe haahaa, A e hoomake hoi i ka poe e hele pono ana.
15 Their sword, shall enter into their own heart, and, their bow, shall be broken.
E komo no ko lakou pahikaua i ko lakou naau iho; A e uhakiia ka lakou kakaka.
16 Better the little of the righteous man, than the abundance of the lawless who are mighty;
Ua oi aku ka waiwai uuku o ke kanaka pono Mamna o ka waiwai nui o ka poe hewa he nui.
17 For, the arms of the lawless, shall be broken, But Yahweh is upholding the righteous.
No ka mea, e uhakiia na lima o ka poe hewa; Aka, e hookupaa iho o Iehova i ka poe pono.
18 Yahweh knoweth the days of the blameless, that, their inheritance, unto times age-abiding, shall continue.
Ua ike o Iehova i na la o ka poe ku pono; A e mau loa ana no hoi ko lakou hooilina.
19 They shall not be ashamed in the time of calamity, and, in the days of famine, shall they be filled.
Aole lakou e hoka i ka manawa ino; A i ke kau wi e maona no lakou.
20 For, the lawless, shall perish, and, the foes of Yahweh, be like the glory of the meadows, They have vanished! In smoke, have they vanished!
Aka, e make no ka poe hewa, A e like auanei oa enemi o Iehova me'ka momona o na keikihipa; E pau lakou i ke ahi, e lilo lakou i uahi.
21 A lawless man borroweth, and will not repay, But, a righteous man, showeth favour and giveth;
Ua noi e lawe iki ka mea hewa i ka hai. aole nae i hoihoi mai: Aka e lokomaikai aka ka mea pono, a haawi wale aku no.
22 For, such as are blessed of him, shall inherit the earth, But, the cursed of him, shall be cut off.
Nolaila o ka poe hoomaikaiia e ia e loaa ia lakou ka honua; Aka, o ka poe i hoinoia e ia e okiia lakou.
23 From Yahweh, are the steps of a man made firm, When, with his way, he is well pleased:
Ua hooku pono ia e Iehova na kapuwai o ke kanaka pono; Oluolu mai no oia i kona hele ana.
24 Though he fall, he shall not be hurled headlong, For, Yahweh, is holding his hand.
Ina e hina ia aole ia e hoohiolo loa ia: No ka mea, ua hookupaa o Iehova ia ia me kona lima.
25 Young, have I been, moreover am old, —Yet have I not seen, A righteous man forsaken, Nor his seed begging bread:
Opiopio aku la au, a ua elemakule ae nei, Aole hoi au i ike i ka mea pono i haaleleia, Aole hoi i kana hua e makilo berena ana.
26 All day long, is he showing favour and lending, his seed, therefore, shall have a blessing.
He aloha mau kona, a ua haawi aka no; Pomaikai no hoi kana hua.
27 Turn from evil, and do good, and so settle down, unto times age-abiding.
E haalele i ka hewa, a e hana i ka pono; A e noho mau loa aku.
28 For, Yahweh, loveth justice, and will not forsake his men of lovingkindness, Unto times age-abiding, have the perverse been destroyed, —and the seed of the lawless, been cut off.
No ka mea, ua makemake no Iehova i ka hoopono ana: Aole ia i haalele i kona poe haipule; E hoomalu mau loa ia hoi lakou; Aka, e okiia ka hua a ka poe hewa.
29 The righteous, shall inherit the earth, that they may settle down, to futurity, thereupon.
E loaa ka aina i ka poe pono, A e noho mau lakou ilaila.
30 The mouth of a righteous man, softly uttereth wisdom, and, his tongue, speaketh justice:
Ua olelo ka waha o ka mea pono ma ka naauao; A ua kamailio kona alelo ma ka hoopono ana.
31 The law of his God, is in his heart, his steps shall not swerve.
Maloko o kona naau ke kanawai o kona Akua; Aole kapuwai ona e kapeke ai.
32 The lawless man, lieth in wait, for the just, and seeketh to put him to death:
Kiai ka mea hewa i ka mea pono, A imi hoi ia e hoomake ia ia.
33 Yahweh, will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him, when he is judged.
Aole e waiho mai o Iehova ia ia iloko o kona lima, Aole hoi e hoahewa ia ia i kona wa e hookolokoloia'i.
34 Wait for Yahweh, and observe thou his path, that he may exalt thee, to inherit the earth, On the cutting off of the lawless, shalt thou look.
E hilinai aku ia Iehova, a e malama i kona aoao: A e hookiekie oia ia oe e komo i ka aina; Aia okiia ka poe hewa, e ike ako no oe ia.
35 I have seen a lawless man, a tyrant, and spreading himself out, like a cedar in Lebanon;
Ua ike aku au i ke kanaka hewa e weliweli ai, E hoopalahalaha ana ia ia iho e like me ka laau uliuli i kona wahi iho.
36 Then I passed by, and lo! he had vanished! Yea I sought him, but he could not be found.
Aka, ua hala aku la ia aia hoi, aole iho la ia; Oiaio, imi aku la au ia ia, aole hoi ia i loaa.
37 Mark the blameless man, and behold the upright, for there is a hereafter for the man of peace;
E noonoo i ke kanaka hemolele, E nana hoi i ka mea kupono: No ka mea, o ka hope o ua kanaka la, he pomaikai no ia.
38 But, transgressors, are to be destroyed together, the hereafter of lawless men, is to be cut off.
Aka, e luku pu ia ka poe lawehala; A o ka hope o ka poe hewa, e okiia no ia.
39 But, the deliverance of the righteous, is from Yahweh, their refuge in a time of distress.
Aka, no Iehova mai ke ola o ka poe pono: Oia ko lakou ikaika i ka wa popilikia.
40 Thus hath Yahweh helped them, thus hath he delivered them, —He will deliver them from the lawless, and will save them, because they have sought refuge in him.
A e kokua mai o Iehova ia lakou, a e hoakea mai ia lakou, E hoopakele oia ia lakou i ka poe hewa, A e hoola ia lakou. no ko lakou hilinai ana ia ia.
