Psalms 139
1 To the Overseer. — A Psalm by David. Jehovah, Thou hast searched me, and knowest.
E IEHOVA, ua haka pono mai oe ia'u, a ua ike hoi.
2 Thou — Thou hast known my sitting down, And my rising up, Thou hast attended to my thoughts from afar.
Ua ike no oe i ko'u noho ana ilalo, a me ko'u ala ana iluna, Ua maopopo hoi ko'u manao ia oe ma kahi loihi e aku.
3 My path and my couch Thou hast fanned, And [with] all my ways hast been acquainted.
Ua hoao mai oe i ko'u ala ana, a me ko'u moe ana, A ua ikea no ko'u mau aoao a pau ia oe.
4 For there is not a word in my tongue, Lo, O Jehovah, Thou hast known it all!
No ka mea, aohe olelo ma ko'u alelo, Aia hoi, e Iehova, ua ike no oe ia mau mea a pau.
5 Behind and before Thou hast besieged me, And Thou dost place on me Thy hand.
Ua hooke mai oe ia'u, ma hope, a mamua, A ua kau mai i kou lima maluna o'u.
6 Knowledge too wonderful for me, It hath been set on high, I am not able for it.
Ua oi aku ke kupanaha o ia ike ana mamua o ko'u, Ua kiekie loa, aole au e hiki aku ilaila.
7 Whither do I go from Thy Spirit? And whither from Thy face do I flee?
Mahea la wau e hele ai, mai ko'u uhane aku? Mahea la wau e pee aku ai, mai kou alo aku?
8 If I ascend the heavens — there Thou [art], And spread out a couch in Sheol, lo, Thee! (Sheol h7585)
Ina pii aku au i ka lani malaila no oe, Inaehalii au i kahi moe ma ka malu o ka make, aia no oe; (Sheol h7585)
9 I take the wings of morning, I dwell in the uttermost part of the sea,
Ina lawe au i na eheu o ke kakahiaka, A noho hoi ma na kihi o ka moana;
10 Also there Thy hand doth lead me, And Thy right hand doth hold me.
Malaila no kou lima e alakai ai ia'u, A na kou lima akua hoi e hoopaa ia'u.
11 And I say, 'Surely darkness bruiseth me, Then night [is] light to me.
A ina olelo au, Oiaio, e haule mai ka pouli maluna o'u, Alaila, e lilo no ka po i malamalama a puni au.
12 Also darkness hideth not from Thee, And night as day shineth, as [is] darkness so [is] light.
Aole hoi e hoonalo ka pouli i kekahi mea ia oe, Hoomalamalama mai ka po me he ao la: Ua like no ka pouli, ua like hoi ka malamalama.
13 For Thou — Thou hast possessed my reins, Thou dost cover me in my mother's belly.
No ka mea, nau no i hooponopono i ko'u naau; A nau hoi i malama mai ia'u, ma ka opu o ko'u makuwahine.
14 I confess Thee, because that [with] wonders I have been distinguished. Wonderful [are] Thy works, And my soul is knowing [it] well.
E mililani aku au ia oe, No ka mea, o kau hana kupanaha no wau a me ka makau; He kupanaha hoi kau mau hana, Ua ike pono no ko'u uhane.
15 My substance was not hid from Thee, When I was made in secret, Curiously wrought in the lower part of earth.
Aole i nalo ko'u kino ia oe, Ia'u i hanaia'i ma kahi malu, A kapili akamai ia malalo i ka honua.
16 Mine unformed substance Thine eyes saw, And on Thy book all of them are written, The days they were formed — And not one among them.
Ike mai no kou mau maka i ko'u opuu ana; A pau no hoi i ke kakauia iloko o kau buke, Na mea o'u i hooponoponoia'i mahope, Ia manawa, aole kekahi o ia mau mea.
17 And to me how precious have been Thy thoughts, O God, how great hath been their sum!
A ia'u hoi, nani ka waiwai o kou mau manao, e ke Akua! Nani hoi ka lehulehu o ko lakou mau haina!
18 I recount them! than the sand they are more, I have waked, and I am still with Thee.
Ina e helu wau, ua oi aku ko lakou kinikini mamua o ke one: Ia'u e ala'i, ua mau loa no au me oe.
19 Dost Thou slay, O God, the wicked? Then, men of blood, turn aside from me!
E pepehi io mai no oe i ka poe hewa, e ke Akua; E na kanaka koko, e hele aku oukou, mai o'u aku nei.
20 Who exchange Thee for wickedness, Lifted up to vanity [are] Thine enemies.
Ka poe olelo hewa aku ia oe, Ua hookieide kou poe enemi ma ka lapuwale.
21 Do not I hate, Jehovah, those hating Thee? And with Thy withstanders grieve myself?
E Iehova, aole anei au i inaina aku i ka poe inaina ia oe? A hoopailua hoi i ka poe ala ku e ia oe?
22 [With] perfect hatred I have hated them, Enemies they have become to me.
Ua inaina aku au ia lakou, me ka inaina hemolele; He poe enemi lakou no'u.
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart, Try me, and know my thoughts,
E huli mai oe ia'u, e ke Akua, a e ike i ko'u naau; E hoao mai oe ia'u, a e ike i ko'u manao.
24 And see if a grievous way be in me, And lead me in a way age-during!
E nana mai hoi ina paha he aoao hewa iloko o'u, A e alakai ia'u ma ka aoao ola loa.
