Psalms 68
1 To the Chief Musician. David’s. A Melody, a Song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered, Yea let them that hate him flee before him:
E KU iluna ke Akua, e hooauhee liilii i kona mau enemi: E auhee hoi imua ona ka poe i hoowahawaha ia ia.
2 As smoke is driven about, Let them be driven about, —As wax is melted before a fire, Let the lawless perish before God.
Me he uahi la i puhiia'ku, pela e hoopuehu ai oe ia lakou; Me ka pilali i hehee ai imua o ke ahi, Pela e make ai ka poe hewa imua o ke Akua.
3 But let, the righteous, be glad, let them exult before God, Yea let them rejoice with gladness.
Aka, e olioli ka poe pono, e hauoli hoi imua o ke Akua; Oiaio, e hauoli loa lakou.
4 Sing ye to God, Make music of his Name, —Lift up (a song), to him that rideth through the waste plains, —Since Yah is his name, exult ye before him.
E himeni aku oukou i ke Akua; E hoolea aku hoi i kona inoa: E hapai aku hoi i ka mea holokaa maluna o na lani, Ma koua inoa, o IA, a e hauoli imua ona.
5 The father of the fatherless, And the advocate of widows, Is God, in his holy habitation.
O ka Makua no ka poe makua ole, O ka Lunakanawai no na wahinekanemake, Oia ke Akua i kona wahi hoano e noho ai.
6 God, is he that causeth the solitary to dwell in a home, That bringeth out prisoners into prosperity, But, the rebellious, have made their habitation in a sunburnt land.
Ua hoonoho ke Akua i na mea mehameha iloko o na ohana; O ka poe i paa i na kaula hao, kana i hoopuka mai nei; Aka, e noho no ka poe kipikipi ma kahi panoa.
7 O God! When thou camest forth before thy people, When thou didst stride through the wilderness, (Selah)
E ke Akua, i kou hele ana imua o kou poe kanaka, I kou eu ana'e iwaena o ka waonahele; (Sila)
8 Earth, trembled, Yea, the heavens, dripped at the presence of God, —This Sinai—at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
Haalulu ae la ka honua, Hookulukulu mai la ka lani, ma ke alo o ke Akua: O Sinai hoi kekahi ma ke alo o ke Akua, ke Akua o Iseraela.
9 A bounteous rain, dost thou shed abroad, O God, upon thine inheritance, When exhausted, thou thyself, hast supported it:
Hoohelelei iho la oe, e ke Akua, i ka ua nui, I hoomau ai oe i kou hooilina i kona nawaliwali ana.
10 Thy living host, have remained therein, Thou dost provide, in thy bounty, for the humbled ones—O God!
Malaila i noho ai kou ekalesia; No kou maikai, e ke Akua, ua hoomakaukau oe no ka poe ilihune.
11 Let, My Lord, but give the word, The herald bands, will be a mighty host:
Haawi mai la ka Haku i ka olelo; He lehulehu loa ka poe i hoolaha.
12 Kings of armies, they flee! they flee! And, she that stayeth at home, shall share the spoil.
O na'lii o na poe kaua ua auhee wawe lakou: A o ka mea i noho ma ka hale ua puunaue no ia i ka waiwai pio.
13 Though ye rest between the folds, The wings of the dove, shall be covered with silver, And, her pinions, with green-shimmering gold.
A i moe ae oukou mawaena o na ipuhao, E like auanei oukou me na eheu o ka manu ku i paapu i ke kala; A me kona mau hulu, i ke gula lenalena.
14 When the Almighty scattereth kings therein, It will gleam like snow in the gloom:
I ka wa i hoopuehu ai ka Mea mana loa i na'lii iloko ona, Ua like ia me ka hau ma Salemona;
15 A mighty mountain, is the mountain of Bashan, A mountain of peaks, is the mountain of Bashan!—
O ka mauna o ke Akua, ka mauna Basana: He mauna kiekie, ka mauna Basana.
16 Wherefore start ye up, ye mountains, ye peaks? The mountain God hath coveted for his habitation, Surely, Yahweh will inhabit it ever!
O ke aha la ka oukou mea e kiei malu ai, e na maunakiekie? Eia ka mauna a ke Akua i makemake ai e noho, Oiaio, e noho mau loa o Iehova ma neia.
17 The chariots of God, are two myriads—thousands repeated, My Lord, is among them Sinai, is in the sanctuary!
O na kaa o ke Akua elua umi tausani i papaluaia; O ka Haku ka iwaena o lakou, Pela ma Sinai, a ma kahi hoano.
18 Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast led in procession a body of captives, Thou hast received gifts consisting of men, Yea even the rebellious, That, Yah, Elohim, might settle down to rest.
Ua pii ae oe iluna, ua lawe pio oe i ke pio ana; Ua loaa no ia oe na haawina no na kanaka, Oia, no ka poe kipikipi kekahi i noho pu mai ai ke Akua ka Haku.
19 Blessed be My Lord! Day by day, he beareth our burden for us, GOD himself, is our salvation. (Selah)
E hoomaikaiia'ku ka Haku, ka mea i hooili ukana maluna o kakou i kela la i keia la, O ko kakou Akua e ola'i. (Sila)
20 The GOD we have, is a GOD of saving deeds, And, due to Yahweh, My Lord, are escapes from death.
O ko kakou Akua, oia ke Akua e ola'i; A no Iehova ka Haku ka puka ana ae no ka make.
21 Yea, God himself, will smite through the head of his foes, —The hairy crown of him that is marching on in his guilty deeds.
E hana pepe ke Akua i ke poo o kona poe enemi, A me ka pua lauoho o ka mea e hele ana'e ma kona mau hewa.
22 Said My Lord, From Bashan, will I bring back, —I will bring back from the depths of the sea:
I mai la ke Akua, Mai Basana mai e alakai hou mai au; E hoihoi mai no hoi au mailoko mai o na hohonu o ke kai.
23 That thou mayest bathe thy foot in blood, —The tongue of thy dogs, from the foes, hath its portion.
I komo kou kapuwai iloko o ke koko o na enemi, A me ke alelo o kau mau ilio iloko o ia mea no.
24 They have seen thy progress O God, The progress of my GOD, my king into the sanctuary:
Ua ike lakou i kou hele ana, e ke Akua, Na hele ana o ko'u Akua, kuu Alii, ma kahi hoano.
25 In front are the singers, Behind are the harpers, In the midst of damsels playing on timbrels:
Ua hele mua ae ka poe mele himeni, A mahope iho ka poe hookanikani i na kaula: A iwaena na kaikamahine e hookani timerela ana.
26 In the congregations, bless ye God, My Lord, from among the called of Israel:
E hoomaikai aku oukou i ke Akua iloko o na auaina, A i ka Haku mai ke kumuwai o ka Iseraela.
27 There, is Benjamin, the Diminutive—ruling them, The princes of Judah—their throng, The princes of Zebulun, The princes of Naphtali.
Malaila o Beniamina ka mea uuku, o ko lakou alii kekahi, Na'lii o Iuda, ko lakou poe ahaolelo, Na'lii o Zebuluna, a me na'lii o Napetali.
28 Thy God hath commanded thy strength, —The strength, O God, which thou hast wrought for us.
Ua kauoha mai kou Akua i kou ikaika: E hookupaa mai, e ke Akua, i ka mea au i hana'i no makou.
29 Because of thy temple above Jerusalem, Unto thee, shall kings bear along a gift—
No kou luakini ma Ierusalema, E lawe ai na'lii i na makana ia oe.
30 Rebuke thou, The wild beast of the reeds, The herd of mighty oxen among the calves of the peoples—Each one bowing down with bars of silver, —Scatter thou the peoples, who in wars take delight.
E papa mai oe i ka holoholona o na ohe, Ke anaina o na mea ikaika, iwaena o na bipi o na lahuikanaka; A hoohaahaa iho kela keia ia ia iho me na apana kala: E hooauhee liilii oe i na kanaka puni kaua.
31 Ambassadors come out of Egypt, The Ethiopian, eagerly stretcheth out his hands, unto God.
E hele mai na luna mailoko mai o Aigupita; E kikoo wawe aku o Aitiopa i kona mau lima i ke Akua.
32 Ye kingdoms of the earth, sing unto God, Praise in song Adonay. (Selah)
E oli aku i ke Akua, e na aupuni o ka honua, E himeni hoomaikai aku oukou i ka Haku; (Sila)
33 Unto him that rideth upon the most ancient heavens, Lo! he uttereth his voice, a voice of strength.
I ka mea e holokaa ana ma na lani o na lani kahiko; Aia, ke hoopuka mai la oia i kona leo, he leo mana.
34 Ascribe ye strength unto God, —Over Israel, is his majesty, And his strength, in the skies. To be revered is God, for his sanctuary, —
E haawi oukou no ke Akua ka mana; Maluna o ka Iseraela kona nani; O kona mana hoi, aia no i na ao.
35 As for the GOD of Israel, he, is giving strength and abundant might to the people. Blessed be God!
He mea weliweli oe, e ke Akua, mailoko mai o kou wahi hoano: O ke Akua o ka Iseraela, oia ka mea i haawi mai i ka ikaika a me ka mana i kona poe kanaka. E hoomaikaiia'ku ke Akua.
