Psalms 74
1 An Instruction of Asaph. Why, O God, hast Thou cast off for ever? Thine anger smoketh against the flock of Thy pasture.
E KE Akua, o ke aha kau mea e mamao mau loa aku ai? No ke aha la e wela mai ai kou huhu i na hipa o kou aina?
2 Remember Thy company. Thou didst purchase of old, Thou didst redeem the rod of Thy inheritance, This mount Zion — Thou didst dwell in it.
E hoomanao oe i kou ekalesia au i kuai kahiko loa ai, Ka ohana o kou hooilina au i kuai ai; O keia mauna Ziona kahi i noho ai oe.
3 Lift up Thy steps to the perpetual desolations, Everything the enemy did wickedly in the sanctuary.
E hoeu i kou wawae i ka neoneo mau ana; I na mea a pau a ka enemi i hana hewa ai iloko e kou wahi hoano.
4 Roared have thine adversaries, In the midst of Thy meeting-places, They have set their ensigns as ensigns.
Ua uwo kou poe enemi iloko o na anaina; Ua kau lakou i ko lakou mau hae i hoailona.
5 He is known as one bringing in on high Against a thicket of wood — axes.
Kaulana aku la ke kanaka, E like me kona hapai ana i na koi i na laau paapu.
6 And now, its carvings together With axe and hatchet they break down,
Aka ano, ke wawahi nei lakou i kona mea i kalaiia, Me na koi a me na hamare.
7 They have sent into fire Thy sanctuary, to the earth they polluted the tabernacle of Thy name,
Ua hoolei lakou i ke ahi iloko o kou wahi hoano, Ua hoohaumia lakou ilalo i ka lepo i ka halelewa o kou inoa.
8 They said in their hearts, 'Let us oppress them together,' They did burn all the meeting-places of God in the land.
I iho la lakou ma ko lakou naau, E luku pu kakou ia lakou; Ua hoopau i ke ahi i na halehalawai a pau o ke Akua ma ka aina.
9 Our ensigns we have not seen, There is no more a prophet, Nor with us is one knowing how long.
Aole kakou i ike i ko kakou mau hoailona; Aole he kaula hou ae; Aohe mea iwaena o kakou i ike i ka loihi ana.
10 Till when, O God, doth an adversary reproach? Doth an enemy despise thy name for ever?
E ke Akua, pehea ka loihi o ko ka enemi hoino ana mai? E hoino wale anei ka enemi i kou inoa i ka manawa pau ole?
11 Why dost Thou turn back Thy hand, Even Thy right hand? From the midst of Thy bosom remove [it].
No ke aha la oe i hoihoi aku ai i kou lima, i kou lima akau? E unuhi ae ia mai loko ae o kou poli.
12 And God [is] my king of old, Working salvation in the midst of the earth.
No ka mea, o ke Akua ko'u Alii mai kinohi mai, E hana ana ma ke ola iwaena o ka honua.
13 Thou hast broken by Thy strength a sea -[monster], Thou hast shivered Heads of dragons by the waters,
Hookaawale ae la oe i ke kai me kou ikaika: Wawahi iho la oe i na poo o na kerokodila ma na wai.
14 Thou hast broken the heads of leviathan, Thou makest him food, For the people of the dry places.
Ulupa iho la oe i na poo o ka leviatana, A haawi ia ia i ai na na kanaka o ka waonahele.
15 Thou hast cleaved a fountain and a stream, Thou hast dried up perennial flowings.
Hookaawale ae la oe i ke kumuwai me ka muliwai: Hoomaloo iho la oe i na waikahe ikaika.
16 Thine [is] the day, also Thine [is] the night, Thou hast prepared a light giver — the sun.
Nou no ke ao, nou no hoi ka po: Ua hoomakaukau oe i ka malamalama a me ka la.
17 Thou hast set up all the borders of earth, Summer and winter Thou hast formed them.
Ua hoonohonoho oe i na palena a pau o ka honua; Ua hana hoi oe i ka hoilo a me ka makalii.
18 Remember this — an enemy reproached Jehovah, And a foolish people have despised Thy name.
E hoomanao oe i keia, ua hoino wale ka enemi, e Iehova, A ua kuamuamu wale na kanaka naaupo i kou inoa.
19 Give not up to a company, The soul of Thy turtle-dove, The company of Thy poor ones forget not for ever.
Mai noho a haawi i ka uhane o kau manu nunu i ka poe ino: Mai hoopoina mau loa i ke anaina o kou poe ilihune.
20 Look attentively to the covenant, For the dark places of earth, Have been full of habitations of violence.
E manao mai oe i ka berita; No ka mea, ua paapu na wahi pouli o ka honua i na wahi e noho ai ka lalauwale.
21 Let not the oppressed turn back ashamed, Let the poor and needy praise Thy name,
Mai noho a hoi hou ka poe i hooluhihewaia me ka hilahila; Aka, e hoolea aku i kou inoa ka poe ilihune a me ka haahaa.
22 Arise, O God, plead Thy plea, Remember Thy reproach from a fool all the day.
E ku iluna, e ko Akua, e hakaka i ko'u hakaka: E hoomanao i ko ke kanaka naaupo hoino wale ana ia oe i na la a pau.
23 Forget not the voice of Thine adversaries, The noise of Thy withstanders is going up continually!
Mai hoopoina i ka leo o kou poe enemi: Ke mahuahua mai nei ka haunaele ana o ka poe ku e ia oe.
