< Psalms 84 >

1 To the Chief Musician. On "the Gittith." For the Sons of Korah. A Melody. How lovely are thy habitations, O Yahweh of hosts!
NANI wale kou wahi noho ai, e Iehova o na kaua!
2 My soul, longeth—yea even languisheth—for the courts of Yahweh, —My heart and my flesh, shout aloud for a Living GOD.
Iini ko'u uhane, no na hale o Iehova; Kahea aku no ko'u naau a me ko'u kino i ke Akua, i ke Akua ola.
3 Even the sparrow, hath found a home, And, the swallow, a nest for herself, where she hath laid her young, Thine altars, O Yahweh of hosts, My king and my God!
Ua loaa i ka manu liilii ka hale, A i ka derora hoi, ka punana, Aia ma kou mau kuahu, e Iehova o na kaua, Kahi e waiho ai i kana mau keiki, E kuu alii a me ko'u Akua.
4 How happy are they who abide in thy house, —Still are they praising thee. (Selah)
Ua pomaikai ka poe e noho la ma kou hale; Ua mau loa no ko lakou halelu ana ia oe. (Sila)
5 How happy the men whose strength is in thee, Festive processions are in their heart.
Pomaikai ke kanaka i loaa ka ikaika ia oe, A me ka poe i paa na alanui maikai iloko o ko lakou naau.
6 Passing through the balsam-vale, A place of fountains, they make it, Yea, with blessings, is it covered by the early rain.
Ia lakou e hele ae ma ke kahawai o Baka, Hoolilo lakou ia ia i waipuna; Na ka ua hoi e hoopiha i na punawai.
7 They go from strength to strength, Each one appeareth before God in Zion.
Hele no lakou, mai kela ikaika, a i keia ikaika aku, E ikeia mai lakou e ke Akua ma Ziona.
8 O Yahweh, God of hosts, hear thou my prayer, —Give hear, thou God of Jacob. (Selah)
E Iehova ke Akua o na kaua, E hoolohe mai oe i ka'u pule; E haliu mai kou pepeiao, e ke Akua o Iakoba. (Sila)
9 Our Shield, behold thou, O God, And look upon the face of thine Anointed One.
E ke Akua, e nana oe i ko makou palekaua, E ike hoi i ka maka o ka Mea au i poni ai.
10 For better is a day in thy courts, than a thousand, I choose rather to stand at the threshold in the house of my God, Than to dwell in the tents of lawlessness.
No ka mea, ua oi aku ka maikai o ka la hookahi ma kou hale mamua o ka tausani. Ua oi aku ko'u makemake i ke kiai puka ma ka hale o ko'u Akua, Mamua o ka noho ana ma na halelewa o ka poe hewa.
11 For, a sun and shield, is Yahweh God, —Grace and glory, will Yahweh give, He will not withhold what is good, from them who walk without blame.
No ka mea, o Iehova, ke Akua, he la no ia, a he palekaua; E haawi mai no o Iehova i ka lokomaikai, a me ka hanohano; Aole ia e aua i kekahi mea maikai i ka poe hele ma ka pololei.
12 O Yahweh of hosts! How happy the man who trusteth in thee!
E Iehova o na kaua, Ua pomaikai ke kanaka hilinai aku ia oe.
