Psalms 50
1 God, the all-powerful one, speaks; he summons all people, from the east to the west.
U A olelo mai no ke Akua mana, o Iehova, Ua kahea mai oia i ka honua mai ka hikina a ka la a i ke komohana.
2 His glory shines from Zion [Hill in Jerusalem], an extremely beautiful city.
Mai loko mai o Ziona ka hemolele o ka nani, I hoomalamalama mai ai ke Akua.
3 Our God comes to us, and he is not silent. A great fire is in front of him, and a storm is around him.
E hele mai ana no ko kakou Akua, aole e noho wale: E ai no hoi ke ahi imua ona. A e ikaika mai ka ino a puni ia.
4 He comes to judge his people. He shouts to the [angels in] heaven and to [the people on] the earth.
E kahea oia i ka lani mai luna mai, A i ka honua hoi, e hooponopono oia i kona poe kanaka.
5 He says, “Summon those who faithfully [worship] me, those who made an agreement with me by offering sacrifices to me.”
E houluulu mai oukou i ko'u mau haipule io'u nei, I ka poe i berita mai me au nei ma ka mohai.
6 The [angels in] heaven declare, “God is righteous, and he is the supreme judge.”
E hoike hoi ka lani i kona pono; No ka mea, o ke Akua oia ka Lunakanawai. (Sila)
7 God says, “My people, listen! You Israeli people, listen, as I, your God, say what you have done that is wrong.
E hoolohe mai, e ko'u poe kanaka, a e olelo aku au; E Iseraela, a e hoike ku e au ia oe; Owau no ke Akua, kou Akua no.
8 I am not rebuking you for making sacrifices to me, for the offerings that you completely burn [on the altar].
Aole au e hoahewa ia oe no kou mau alana, A me kou mau mohaikuni i mau imua o ko'u alo.
9 But I do not really need [you to sacrifice] the bulls from your barns and the goats from your pens,
Aohe bipi kane ka'u e lawe ai mai loko mai o kou hale; Aole hoi kao kane mai loko mai o kou mau pa holoholona:
10 because all the animals in the forest belong to me, [and all] the cattle on 1,000 hills also belong to me.
No ka mea, na'u no na holoholona a pau o ka ululaan, A me na holoholona laka maluna o na puu he tausani.
11 I [own and] know all the birds and all [the creatures] that move around in the fields.
Ua ike au i na manu a pau o na mauna; No'u no hoi na holoholona o ke kula.
12 [So], if I were hungry, I would not tell you [to bring me some food], because everything in the world belongs to me!
Ina i pololi au, aole au e hai aku ia oe; No ka mea, no'u no ke ao nei a me kona mea e piha ai.
13 I do not eat the flesh of the bulls [that you sacrifice], and I do not drink the blood of the goats [that you offer to me].
E ai anei au i ka io o na bipikane? E inu anei au i ke koko o na hipa kane?
14 The sacrifice [that I really want is that] you thank me and do all that you have promised to do.
E mohai i ka hoomaikai ana i ke Akua; A e haawi i ka mea kiekie loa i kau mea i hoohiki ai nona:
15 And pray to me when you have troubles. [If you do that], I will rescue you, and [then] you will praise me.
A e kahea mai ia'u i ka la popilikia; A e hoopakele au ia oe, a e hoonani mai no hoi oe ia'u.
16 But I say this to the wicked people: (Why do you/It does not benefit you at all to) [RHQ] recite my commandments or talk about the agreement that I made with you,
Aka, ke olelo nei ke Akua i ka mea hewa, Heaha kau e hai aku ai i ko'u mau kanawai? A e lawe ai i kuu berita ma kou waha?
17 because you have refused to allow me to discipline you, and you have rejected what I told you to do.
No ka mea, he hoowahawaha kou i ke aoia'na; A ke kiola nei oe i ka'u olelo mahope aku ou.
18 Every time that you see a thief, you become his friend, and you spend [much] time with those who commit adultery.
A i kou wa i ike ai i ka aihue, ua ae pu oe me ia: Ua lawe pu oe me na mea moe kolohe.
19 You are [always] talking [MTY] about doing wicked things, and you are [always] to deceive people.
Ke haawi nei oe i kou waha i ka ino, A ke hookui nei kou alelo i ka hoopunipuni.
20 You are always accusing members of your own family [of doing wrong], and slandering them.
Ke noho nei oe me ka hoino i kou hoahanou; Ke aki wale nei oe i ke keiki a kou makuwahine.
21 You did [all] those things, and I did not say anything to you, [so] you thought that I was [a sinner] just like you. But now I rebuke you and accuse you, right in front of you.
Oia na mea au i hana'i, a hookuli hoi au; Manao iho la oe, he mea like loa au me oe; Aka, e hoahewa au ia oe, a e hoonohonoho pono imua o kou alo.
22 So, all you who have ignored me, pay attention to this, because if you do not, I will tear you to pieces, and there will be no one to rescue you.
E hoomanao oukou i keia, ano, e ka poe hoopoina i ke Akua, O haehae aku au, aole hoi he mea e ola'i.
23 The sacrifice that [truly] honors me is to thank me [for what I have done]; and I will save those who always do the things that I want them to.”
O ka mea mohai i ka hoolea no'u oia ke hoonani mai ia'u: O ka mea hoopono i kona hele ana o ka'u ia e hoike ai i ke ola o ke Akua.
