Psalms 17
1 A prayer of David hear! O Yahweh - righteousness pay attention to! cry of entreaty my give ear to! prayer my with not lips of deceit.
E HOOLOHE mai i ka pono, e Iehova; E manao mai oe i ka'u ulono ana'ku; E maliu mai hoi kou pepeiao i ka'u pule, Mai loko ae o na lehelehe hookamani ole.
2 From to before you judgment my may it come forth eyes your may they see uprightness.
Mai kou alo pono mai e puka mai ai ka olelo no'u; E nana mai kou mau maka i na mea ewaewa ole.
3 You have tested heart my - you have visited night you have tested me not you will find I have resolved not it will transgress mouth my.
Ua hoao mai nei oe i ko'u naau; Ua ike mai nei oe ia'u i ka po; Ua hoao mai nei oe ia'u, aohe e loaa ia oe: Ua paa kuu manao aole e hoohala kuu waha.
4 To [the] deeds of humankind by [the] word of lips your I I have watched [the] paths of violent person[s].
I na hana a kanaka, no ka olelo pono mai a kou mau lehelehe, Ua malama au ia'u iho i na aoao o ka mea e make ai.
5 They have held firm steps my in tracks your not they have been shaken footsteps my.
E hookupono mai oe i ko'u hele ana ma kou mau alanui, I ole ai ko'u mou kapuwai e pahee.
6 I I call out to you for you will answer me O God incline ear your to me hear utterance my.
Ua kahea aku au ia oe, no ka mea, e lohe mai no oe ia'u, e ke Akua; E haliu mai ia'u kou pepeiao, e lono mai i ka'u olelo.
7 Make wonderful covenant loyalti your O deliverer of [those who] take refuge from [those who] rise up by right [hand] your.
E hoike mai oe i kou lokomaikai kupaianaha, E ka mea nana ka poe hilinai e hoopakele me kou lima akau i ka poe i ku e mai.
8 Keep me like [the] pupil of [the] daughter of an eye in [the] shadow of wings your you will hide me.
E malama mai oe ia'u e like me ke kii onohi o ka maka, E huna oe ia'u malalo ae o ka malu o kou mau eheu,
9 From before wicked [people] who they have assailed me enemies my with soul they surround me.
Mai ke alo mai o ka poe hewa i hooluhi mai ai ia'u, O ko'u poe enemi e make ai i hoopuni mai ia'u.
10 Fat their they have closed up mouth their they have spoken with pride.
Ua puni lakou i ko lakou momona: Ua olelo haaheo lakou me ko lakou waha.
11 Steps our now (they have surrounded us *Q(K)*) eyes their they set to bend down on the ground.
Ua hoopuni iho nei lakou ia makou i ko makou hele ana, Ua haka ko lakou maka me ke kulou ana ma ka lepo;
12 Likeness his [is] like a lion [which] it longs to tear to pieces and like a young lion [which] sits in hiding places.
Me he liona pololi la e kuko ana i kana pio. Me he liona opiopio la, e moemoe malu ana ma na wahi anoano.
13 Arise! O Yahweh confront! face his make bow down him deliver! life my from [the] wicked sword your.
E ku ae, e Iehova, e hoolapuwale ia ia, e kiola oe ia ia ilalo: E hoopakele oe i ko'u uhane i ka mea ino, i kau pahikaua;
14 From men hand your - O Yahweh from men from [the] world [whom] portion their [is] in the life (and treasured [thing] your *Q(K)*) you fill belly their they are satisfied sons and they leave abundance their to children their.
I na kanaka, i ka lima on, e Iehova, I ka poe ma keia ao, i loaa ko lakou waiwai i keia ola ana, Ua hoopihaia mai e oe ko lakou opu me kou waiwai i hunaia: Ua maona ko lakou mau kamalii, A waiho no lakou i ke koena na ka lakou mau keiki hou.
15 I in righteousness I will see face your I will be satisfied when awake likeness your.
A owau hoi la, e ike auanei au i kou maka me ka pono; Aia e ala hou au me kou ano, alaila au e maha io ai.
