< Psalms 65 >

1 God, it is right/appropriate [for us] to praise you in Jerusalem, and to do what [we] have promised you that [we] would do,
NOU, e ke Akua, ka hilinai me ka hoolea iloko o Ziona: Nou no hoi e hookoia'ku ai ka mea i hoohikiia.
2 [because] you answer our prayers. People everywhere will come to you
E ka mea lohe i ka pule, I ou la e hele aku ai ka io a pau.
3 because of the sins [that they have committed]. Our many sins are like a very heavy burden to us, but you forgive us.
Lanakila mai na hewa maluna o'u: A o ko makou mau lawehala ana, o kau ia e hoopau ai.
4 You are pleased with those whom you have chosen to live close to your temple. We are happy with all the blessings that we receive from [worshiping in] your sacred temple.
Pomaikai ke kanaka au i koho mai ai, A e hookokoke ai hoi, i noho ia ma kou mau pahale: E maona auanei makou i ka pono o kou hale, o kou luakini hoano.
5 [God, when we pray to you], you answer us and save us by doing awesome deeds; you are the one who rescues us; people who live in very remote places on the earth, on the other side of the oceans, trust in you.
Ma na mea kupanaha iloko o ka pono, E ae mai i ka makou, e ko makou Akua e ola'i; E ka mea e manaolanaia'i no na welelau a pau o ka honua, A me ka poe loihi aku ma ke kai:
6 By your strength you put the mountains in their places, [showing that] you are very powerful.
Ka mea i hoonoho paa i na mauna me kona mana; I kakooia me ka ikaika;
7 You calm the seas when they roar, and you stop the waves from crashing [on the shore]; you [also] calm people when they (make a great uproar/shout angrily together).
Ka mea i hoomalielie i ka halulu ana o na kai, Ka halulu ana o na ale o lakou, a me ka wawa ana o kanaka.
8 People who live in very remote/distant places on the earth (are awed by/revere) you because of the miracles that you perform; because of what you do, people who live far to the west and far to the east shout joyfully.
O ka poe e noho ana ma kahi loihi loa aku, ua makau no i kou mau hoailona: Ke hauoli mai nei oe i na puka ana o ke kakahiaka a me ke ahiahi.
9 You take care of the soil and send rain, causing many good things to grow; you fill the streams with water, and cause grain/crops to grow. That is what you have determined/said would happen.
Ke kipa mai nei oe i ka honua, a hoopiha ia ia a hu iwaho: Ke hoonui wale nei oe i kona waiwai me ko ke Akua kahawai i piha i ka wai: Ke hoomakaukau nei oe i palaoa na lakou; No ka mea, pela no oe i hooponopono ai ia.
10 You [send plenty of rain] on the fields that have been plowed, and you fill the furrows with water. With showers you soften the [hard clods/lumps of] soil, and you bless the soil by causing young plants to grow.
Ke hoohainu nui mai nei oe i kona mau lapalapa; Me ka hoomaniania i kona mau kaha; Ke hoopalupalu mai nei oe ia ia me na ua: A o kona ulu ana'e kau e hoomaikai nei.
11 Because you bless the soil, there are very good crops at harvest season; wherever you have gone [MTY], good crops are very abundant [IDM].
Ke hoolei mai nei oe i ka makahiki me kou lokomaikai: Ke hookulukulu nei kou mau kaa i ka momona;
12 The pastures are full of flocks [of sheep and goats]; [it is as though] the hills are very joyful.
Ke hookulukulu nei lakou ma na kula o ka waonahele; A ua kaeiia na puu me ka hauoli.
13 The meadows are full of sheep and goats, and the valleys are full of grain; [it is as though] they [also] sing and shout joyfully.
Ua aahuia na kula i ohana holoholona, Ua uhiia hoi na awawa i ka palaoa: Ke hooho nei lakou no ka olioli; Ke mele mai nei no hoi lakou.
