Psalms 16
1 A Poem by David. Preserve me, God, for I take refuge in you.
E HOOLA mai oe ia'u, e ke Akua: Ke hilinai aku nei au ia oe.
2 My soul, you have said to the LORD, “You are my Lord. Apart from you I have no good thing.”
E kuu uhane, ua i aku oe ia Iehova, O oe no ko'u Haku; Aole i hiki aku ko'u maikai ia oe;
3 As for the saints who are in the earth, they are the excellent ones in whom is all my delight.
Aka, i ka poe haipule ma ka honua, A me ka poe maikai a'u e hauoli nei.
4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts to another god. Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take their names on my lips.
E hoonuiia'na ka eha o ka poe e hahai i ka mea e; Aole au e mohai aku i ko lakou mohaiinu koko, Aole hoi e hapai i ko lakou inoa i kou mau Iehelehe.
5 The LORD assigned my portion and my cup. You made my lot secure.
O Iehova ka io o ko'u hooilina a me ko'u kiaha; Ke hoomau mai nei oe i ko'u pauku.
6 The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places. Yes, I have a good inheritance.
Ua lilo mai na palena ia'u i kahi e mahalo ai; Oiaio, ua ili mai ia'u ka aina maikai.
7 I will bless the LORD, who has given me counsel. Yes, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.
E hoomaikai aku au ia Iehova, nana ka olelo i haawi mai ia'u, Ua ao mai hoi ia'u ko'u mau puupaa i na po.
8 I have set the LORD always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
Ke waiho mau nei no au ia Iehova imua o ko'u alo: Oia ma ko'u lima akau, nolaila au e kulanalana ole ai.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices. My body shall also dwell in safety.
Nolaila ko'u naau o hauoli nei, a e olioli nei ko'u nani, Oiaio, e hoomaha hoi ko'u kino me ka manaolana.
10 For you will not leave my soul in Sheol, neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
No ka mea, aole oe e haalele i ko'u uhane i ka malu o ka make, Aole hoi oe e waiho iho i kou mea hoano a ike i ka palaho. (Sheol h7585)
11 You will show me the path of life. In your presence is fullness of joy. In your right hand there are pleasures forever more.
E hoike mai no oe ia'u i ke kuamoo e ola'i; Ina no ma kou alo ka nui wale o ka olioli; Ma kou lima akau ka hauoli mau loa.
