Psalms 59
1 To the Overseer. — 'Destroy not,' by David. — A secret treasure, in Saul's sending, and they watch the house to put him to death. Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God, From my withstanders set me on high.
E HOOPAKELE ia'u i ko'u mau enemi, e ko'u Akua; E hookiekie oe ia'u i ka poe ku e mai iluna ia'u.
2 Deliver me from workers of iniquity, And from men of blood save me.
E hoopakele ia'u i ka poe hana hewa; A e hoola mai ia'u i na kanaka koko.
3 For, lo, they laid wait for my soul, Assembled against me are strong ones, Not my transgression nor my sin, O Jehovah.
No ka mea, aia hoi, ke hoohalua nei lakou no ko'u uhane: Ua akoakoa ku e mai ka poe ikaika; Aole no ko'u hewa, aole hoi no ko'u lawehala ana, e Iehova.
4 Without punishment they run and prepare themselves, Stir up to meet me, and see.
Me ko'u hala ole, holo lakou a hoomakaukau; E ala ae e hoohalawai me au, a e nana mai.
5 And Thou, Jehovah, God of Hosts, God of Israel, Awake to inspect all the nations. Favour not any treacherous dealers of iniquity. (Selah)
O oe, e Iehova ke Akua Sabaota, ke Akua o Iseraela, E ala, e hoopai i na lahuikanaka a pau: Mai hoomanawanui mai i na mea lawehala nui. (Sila)
6 They turn back at evening, They make a noise like a dog, And go round about the city.
Ua hoi mai lakou i ke ahiahi: Ua uwo lakou me he ilio la; Ke kaapuni nei lakou i ke kulanakauhale.
7 Lo, they belch out with their mouths, Swords [are] in their lips, for 'Who heareth?'
Aia hoi, ua hoolei mai me ko lakou waha: He mau pahikaua maloko o ko lakou mau leheleho: No ka mea, owai ka mea hoolohe?
8 And Thou, O Jehovah dost laugh at them, Thou dost mock at all the nations.
Aka, e Iehova, o akaaka mai no oe ia lakou; E henehene mai no hoi oe i na lahuikanaka a pau.
9 O my Strength, unto Thee I take heed, For God [is] my tower — the God of my kindness.
No kona ikaika, e malama aku au ia oe; No ka mea, o ke Akua ko'u wahi e malu ai.
10 God doth go before me, He causeth me to look on mine enemies.
E hele no hoi imua o'u ko'u Akua aloha mai; E haawi mai ke Akua ia'u e nana aku i ko'u poe enemi.
11 Slay them not, lest my people forget, Shake them by Thy strength, And bring them down, O Lord our shield.
Mai luku mai oe ia lakou, o poina i ko'u poe Kanaka: E hoauwana oe ia lakou me kou mana; E hoohaahaa oe ia lakou, e ka Haku, ko makou palekaua.
12 The sin of their mouth [is] a word of their lips, And they are captured in their pride, And from the curse and lying they recount.
No ka hewa o ko lakou waha, A me na olelo a ko lakou mau lehelehe, E hooheiia lakou iloko o ko lakou hookiekie ana; A no ke kuamuamu a me ka wahahee a lakou e pane nei.
13 Consume in fury, consume and they are not, And they know that God is ruling in Jacob, To the ends of the earth. (Selah)
E hoopau oe me kon huhu, e hoopau, i ole lakou; I ike lakou o ke Akua ke alii iloko o Iakoba a hiki i na welau o ka honua,
14 And they turn back at evening, They make a noise like a dog, And they go round about the city.
A i ke ahiahi o hoi mai ai lakou; A e uwo lakou me he ilio la, A e kaapuni i ke kulanakauhale.
15 They — they wander for food, If they are not satisfied — then they murmur.
E auwana lakou i o ia nei, i ai, A e uwo lakou ke maona ole.
16 And I — I sing [of] Thy strength, And I sing at morn [of] Thy kindness, For thou hast been a tower to me, And a refuge for me in a day of adversity.
Aka, e oli aku au i kou mana; Oia hoi, e himeni leo nui aku au i kou aloha i ke kakahiaka; No ka mea, he wahi malu ae nei oe no'u, He puuhonua i ko'u la i popilikia'i.
17 O my Strength, unto Thee I sing praise, For God [is] my tower, the God of my kindness!
E ko'u Ikaika, ia oe no wau e mele aku ai: No ka mea, o oe no ko'u wahi e malu ai, e ko'u Akua aloha mai.
