Psalms 66
1 To the Overseer. — A Song, a Psalm. Shout ye to God, all the earth.
E HOOKANI olioli i ke Akua, e na aina a pau:
2 Praise ye the honour of His name, Make ye honourable His praise.
E himeni aku i ka nani o kona inoa: E hoolilo i ka hoolea nona i mea nani.
3 Say to God, 'How fearful [are] Thy works, By the abundance of Thy strength, Thine enemies feign obedience to Thee.
E olelo aku i ke Akua, Nani kou kupaianaha i kau hana aua! No ka nui o kou mana e hoolohe ai kou mau enemi ia oe.
4 All the earth do bow to Thee, They sing praise to Thee, they praise Thy name.' (Selah)
E pau ka honua i ka hoomana aku ia oe, me ke mele aku ia oe; E himeni aku lakou i kou inoa. (Sila)
5 Come ye, and see the works of God, Fearful acts toward the sons of men.
E hele mai oukou e ike i na hana a ke Akua; He kupaianaha ia i kana hana ana no na keiki a kanaka.
6 He hath turned a sea to dry land, Through a river they pass over on foot, There do we rejoice in Him.
Hoolilo mai la oia i ke kai i aina maloo: Hele wawae ae la lakou iwaena o ka muliwai: Malaila kakou i hauoli aku ai ia ia.
7 Ruling by His might to the age, His eyes among the nations do watch, The refractory exalt not themselves. (Selah)
Ma kona mana ua hoomalu mau loa oia; Ke nana mai nei kona mau maka i na lahuikanaka: Aole e hookiekie ae ka poe kipikipi. (Sila)
8 Bless, ye peoples, our God, And sound the voice of His praise,
E hoomaikai i ko kakou Akua, e na kanaka, E hooloheia'ku ka leo o ka hoolea nona:
9 Who hath placed our soul in life, And suffered not our feet to be moved.
Ka mea i hoomau i ko kakou uhane ma ke ola nei; Aole i kuu mai e kapeke ko kakou mau wawae.
10 For Thou hast tried us, O God, Thou hast refined us as the refining of silver.
No ka mea, ua hoao mai oe, e ke Akua, ia makou; Ua hoao mai oe ia makou me he kala la i hoaoia.
11 Thou hast brought us into a net, Thou hast placed pressure on our loins.
Ua hookomo oe ia makou i ka upena; Ua waiho mai oe i ka mea kaumaha ma ko makou mau puhaka.
12 Thou hast caused man to ride at our head. We have entered into fire and into water, And Thou bringest us out to a watered place.
Ua haawi mai oe, e hooholo na kanaka maluna o ko makou mau poo: Hele ae la makou iwaena o ke ahi a me ka wai: Aka, ua lawe mai oe ia makou ma kahi waiwai.
13 I enter Thy house with burnt-offerings, I complete to Thee my vows,
E hele au iloko o kou hale me na mohaikuni: E hooko aku au nou i ka'u mau mea i hoohiki aku ai,
14 For opened were my lips, And my mouth spake in my distress:
Ka mea a ko'u mau lehelehe i hoopuka aku ai; A me ko'u waha i olelo ai i kuu popilikia ana.
15 'Burnt-offerings of fatlings I offer to Thee, With perfume of rams, I prepare a bullock with he-goats.' (Selah)
E kaumaha aku au nou i na mohaikuni momona, Me ka mea ala o na hipa kane; E alana aku au i na bipi me na kao. (Sila)
16 Come, hear, all ye who fear God, And I recount what he did for my soul.
E hele mai e hoolohe, e ka poe a pau i weliweli i ke Akua, A e hai aku au i ka mea ana i hana mai ai no kuu uhane.
17 Unto Him [with] my mouth I have called, And exaltation [is] under my tongue.
Ua kahea aku au ia ia me kuu waha, A ua hapaiia'ku hoi ia e ko'u alelo.
18 Iniquity, if I have seen in my heart, The Lord doth not hear.
Ina malama au i ka hewa ma ko'u naau, Aole e hoolohe mai ka Haku ia'u:
19 But God hath heard, He hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
Aka, ua hoolohe io mai no ke Akua; Ua maliu mai i ka leo o ka'u pule.
20 Blessed [is] God, Who hath not turned aside my prayer, And His loving-kindness, from me!
E hoomaikaiia'ku ke Akua, Ka mea i hookapae ole i ka'u pule, A me kona aloha, mai o'u aku nei.
