Psalms 32
1 Those whom God has forgiven for rebelling against him, whose stains [MET] of sin have been wiped away, are truly blessed [by God]!
POMAIKAI ka mea i kalaia kona hala, I uhiia hoi koua hewa.
2 Those whose record of their sins Yahweh has erased, those who no longer do deceitful things, are [truly] blessed [by God]!
Pomaikai ke kanaka, maluna ona ka hoili ole ia o ka hewa e Iehova. Iloko hoi o kona uhane aohe hookamani.
3 When I did not confess my sins, (my body/I) was very weak and sick, and I groaned (all day long/continually).
I ko'u mumule ana ua elemakule ae la kuu mau iwi, I kuu auwe ana a po ka la.
4 Day and night, [Yahweh], you [SYN] punished me severely. My strength drained away like [water that] ([evaporates/dries up]) on a hot summer [day].
No ka mea, i ke ao a me ka po, kaumaha mai la kou lima maluna iho o'u: Ua hooliloia ko'u ma-u ana i maloo o ka makalii. (Sila)
5 [Then/Finally] I admitted/confessed my sins to you; I stopped trying to hide them. (Think about that!) I said [to myself], “I will confess to Yahweh the wrong things that I have done.” And [when I confessed them], you forgave me, so now I (am no longer guilty/will no longer be punished) for my sins.
Ua hai aku au i ko'u hewa ia oe; Aole au i huna i ko'u lawehala ana. I iho la an, E hai aku au i ko'u hala ia Iehova; A ua kala mai oe i ka hewa o ka'u lawehala ana. (Sila)
6 Therefore, the people who are godly should pray to you [when they] (realize that they have sinned/have difficulties). If they pray to you, [difficulties] [MET] will not overwhelm them [like] a great flood.
No ia mea, e pule aku ia oe na haipule i ka wa e loaa ai oe; Oiaio, i ke kahe aua o na wai nui, aole ia e kokoke ia ia.
7 You are [like] a place where I can hide [from my enemies] [MET], you protect me from troubles, and you (enable me/[put people around me who will enable me]) to shout, praising you for saving me [from my enemies].
O oe no kuu wahi e pee ai; E hoopakele no oe ia'u i ka popilikia: E hoopuni no oe ia'u me na mele no ke ola. (Sila)
8 [Yahweh says], “I will teach you about how you should conduct your life. I will instruct you and watch over you.
E ao aku au ia oe, a hoike ia oe i kou ala e hele ai; E alakai au ia oe me ko'u maka.
9 Do not be stupid like horses and mules that do not have understanding; they need (bits/pieces of metal put in their mouths) and (bridles/ropes fastened to their head) so they will go in the direction you want them to go.”
Mai hoohalike oukou me ka lio a me ka hoki, na mea ike ole; E pono ke kaohiia kona waha me ka haowaha, a me ke kaula waha, o hele kokoke ia ia oe.
10 Wicked people will have many [troubles that will make them] sad, but those who trust in Yahweh will experience him faithfully loving them all the time.
E nui auanei ka ehaeha o ka mea hewa; Aka, o ka mea hilinai ia Iehova. e hoopuniia no ia me ke aloha.
11 [So, all] you righteous people, rejoice about what Yahweh [has done for you]; you whose (inner beings/lives) are pure, be glad and shout joyfully!
E olioli ia Iehova, a e hauoli, e ka poe pono: E hooho no ka hauoli, e ka poe a pau i kupono ka naau.
