Psalms 89
1 An instruction, by Ethan the Ezrahite. Of the kind acts of Jehovah, to the age I sing, To all generations I make known Thy faithfulness with my mouth,
E HOOKANI mau loa aku au i ka lokomaikai o Iehova; Ma ko'u waha e hoike aku at au i kou oiaio i kela hanauna, i keia hanauna.
2 For I said, 'To the age is kindness built, The heavens! Thou dost establish Thy faithfulness in them.'
No ka mea, ua olelo no wau, e hoopaa mau loa ia kou lokomaikai; A e hookumu no hoi oe i kou oiaio ma ka lani.
3 I have made a covenant for My chosen, I have sworn to David My servant:
Ua hana au i berita me kou poe i waeia, Ua hoohiki aku au no Davida, ka'u kauwa,
4 'Even to the age do I establish thy seed, And have built to generation and generation thy throne. (Selah)
E hoonoho paa loa wau i kau poe mamo, A e hana no hoi au i nohoalii nou no na hanauna a pau. (Sila)
5 and the heavens confess Thy wonders, O Jehovah, Thy faithfulness also [is] in an assembly of holy ones.
Na ka lani no e hoolea i kou mau mea mana, e Iehova, I kou oiaio kekahi, ma ke anaina o ka poe pono.
6 For who in the sky, Compareth himself to Jehovah? Is like to Jehovah among sons of the mighty?
No ka mea, owai la ka mea ma ke aonli e ku like me Iehova? Iwaena hoi o na keiki a ka poe kiekie, e hoohalikeia me Iehova?
7 God is very terrible, In the secret counsel of His holy ones, And fearful over all surrounding Him.
He Akua woliweli loa hoi ia ma ke anaina o ka poe pono; A he mea ia e hopohopo ai no ka poe a pau e noho hoopuni ana ia ia.
8 O Jehovah, God of Hosts, Who [is] like Thee — a strong Jah? And Thy faithfulness [is] round about Thee.
E Iehova, ke Akua o na kaua, Owai la kekahi Iehova e like me oe? Me kou oiaio hoi e hoopuni ana ia oe?
9 Thou [art] ruler over the pride of the sea, In the lifting up of its billows Thou dost restrain them.
O oe no ka i hookouopono i ke kupikipikio ana o ke kai; A pii nui ae kona mau ale, nau ia e hoomalielie.
10 Thou hast bruised Rahab, as one wounded. With the arm of Thy strength Thou hast scattered Thine enemies.
Ua paopao no oe ia Rahaba, me he mea la i pepehiia; I ka ikaika o kou lima, na hooauhee oe i kou poe enemi.
11 Thine [are] the heavens — the earth also [is] Thine, The habitable world and its fulness, Thou hast founded them.
Nau no ka lani, nau no hoi ka honua; Ua hookumu no oe i ke ao, a me kona mau mea e piha'i.
12 North and south Thou hast appointed them, Tabor and Hermon in Thy name do sing.
O ke kukulu akau, a me ke kukuluhema, nau no i hana ia mau mea; E olioli no o Tabora a me Heremona i kou inoa.
13 Thou hast an arm with might, Strong is Thy hand — high Thy right hand.
He lima no kou i lako i ka ikaika: Ua ikaika no kou lima, ua kiekie hoi kou lima akau.
14 Righteousness and judgment [Are] the fixed place of Thy throne, Kindness and truth go before Thy face.
O ka pono, a me ka hoopono, oia ke kumu o kou nohoalii: E hele ae no imua o kou maka ka lokomaikai, a me ka oiaio.
15 O the happiness of the people knowing the shout, O Jehovah, in the light of Thy face they walk habitually.
Pomaikai ka poe kanaka ike ia leo hauoli: E Iehova, e hele no lakou ma ka malamalama o kou maka.
16 In Thy name they rejoice all the day, And in Thy righteousness they are exalted,
E hauoli no lakou i kou inoa a po ka la; A ma kou pono hoi e hookiekieia'i lakou.
17 For the beauty of their strength [art] Thou, And in Thy good will is our horn exalted,
No ka mea, o oe no ka nani o ko lakou ikaika; A ma kou lokomaikai e hookiekieia'i ko makou pepeiaohao.
18 For of Jehovah [is] our shield, And of the Holy One of Israel our king.
No ka mea, aia no ia Iehova ko makou paku, A i ka Mea Hemolele hoi o ka Iseraela, ko makou alii.
19 Then Thou hast spoken in vision, To Thy saint, yea, Thou sayest, I have placed help upon a mighty one, Exalted a chosen one out of the people,
Alaila, olelo iho no oe i kou mea hemolele ma ke akaku, I mai la. Ua kau aku au i ka mana maluna o ka mea ikaika; Ua hookiekie au i ka mea i waeia mai o na kanaka.
20 I have found David My servant, With My holy oil I have anointed him.
Ua loaa ia'u o Davida, o ka'u kauwa; Ua poni aku no au ia ia me kuu aila laa.
21 With whom My hand is established, My arm also doth strengthen him.
E paa mau no ko'u lima me ia, A e hooikaika aku no ko'u lima ia ia.
22 An enemy exacteth not upon him, And a son of perverseness afflicteth him not.
Aole e kii mai ka enemi i kana, Aole hoi e hookaumaha ke keiki a ka hewa ia ia.
23 And I have beaten down before him his adversaries, And those hating him I plague,
Na'u no e hooauhee i kona poe enemi imua ona, A e luku aku hoi i ka poe inaina mai ia ia,
24 And My faithfulness and kindness [are] with him, And in My name is his horn exalted.
E noho no ko'u oiaio a me ko'u lokomaikai me ia; A ma ko'u inoa e hookiekieia'i kona pepeiaohao.
25 And I have set on the sea his hand, And on the rivers his right hand.
E hookau aku au i kona lima ma ke kai, A me kona lima akau hoi ma na muliwai.
26 He proclaimeth me: 'Thou [art] my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation.'
E hea mai no oia ia'u, O oe no ko'u Makua, O ko'u Akua hoi, a me ka Pohaku o ko'u hoolaia.
27 I also first-born do appoint him, Highest of the kings of the earth.
E hoolilo no wau ia ia i ko'u makahiapo, I mea kiekie maluna o na'lii o ka honua.
28 To the age I keep for him My kindness, And My covenant [is] stedfast with him.
E malama mau loa no wau i ko'u lokomaikai ia ia, A e ku paa loa no ko'u berita me ia.
29 And I have set his seed for ever, And his throne as the days of the heavens.
E hoomau loa no wau i kona poe mamo, A me kona nohoalii hoi, e like me na la o ka lani.
30 If his sons forsake My law, And in My judgments do not walk;
Ina haalele kana poe keiki i ko'u kanawai, Aole hoi e hele ma kou hoopono ana.
31 If My statutes they pollute, And My commands do not keep,
Ina kuu aku lakou i ka'u olelo pau, Aole hoi e malama i ka'u mau kauoha;
32 I have looked after with a rod their transgression, And with strokes their iniquity,
Alaila e hoopai aku au i ko lakou hewa i ka laau hahau, A me ko lakou hala hoi i ke kaula.
33 And My kindness I break not from him, Nor do I deal falsely in My faithfulness.
Aole nae o lawe loa aku au i ko'u lokomaikai mai ona aku. Aole hoi au e hoole i ko'u lokomaikai.
34 I profane not My covenant, And that which is going forth from My lips I change not.
Aole au e ae maluna o ka'u berita, Aole hoi e hoololi i ka olelo i puka aku ma ko'u lehelehe.
35 Once I have sworn by My holiness, I lie not to David,
Hookahi no ko'u hoohiki ana i ko'u hemolele, Aole au e wahahee aku ia Davida.
36 His seed is to the age, And his throne [is] as the sun before Me,
E mau loa ana no kana poe mamo, A me kona nohoalii, e like me ka la imua o'u.
37 As the moon it is established — to the age, And the witness in the sky is stedfast. (Selah)
E hoopaa mau loa ia no hoi ia, e like me ka mahina, Me he mea hoike oiaio la ma ke aouli. (Sila)
38 And Thou, Thou hast cast off, and dost reject, Thou hast shown Thyself wroth With Thine anointed,
Aka, ua hooki mai oe, a ua hoopailua mai, A ua huhu mai no hoi oe i kau mea i poni ai.
39 Hast rejected the covenant of Thy servant, Thou hast polluted to the earth his crown,
Ua hoole mai no hoi oe i ka berita o kau kauwa: Ua hoolei oe i kona leialii i lalo i ka lepo.
40 Thou hast broken down all his hedges, Thou hast made his fenced places a ruin.
Ua wawahi no hoi oe i kona mau pa a pau, Ua haawi mai no hoi oe i kona mau pakaua i ka lukuia.
41 Spoiled him have all passing by the way, He hath been a reproach to his neighbours,
Hao wale ia ia ka poe a pau e maalo ana ae malaila: He mea hoomaewaowa ia i kona poe hoalauna.
42 Thou hast exalted the right hand of his adversaries, Thou hast caused all his enemies to rejoice.
Ua hookiekio oe i ka lima akau o kona poe enemi; Ua hoohauoli oe i ka poe a pau i inaina mai ia ia.
43 Also — Thou turnest back the sharpness of his sword, And hast not established him in battle,
Ua hoohuli ae no hoi oe i ka maka o kana pahikaua, Aole hoi oe i hookupaa ia ia ma ke kaua.
44 Hast caused [him] to cease from his brightness, And his throne to the earth hast cast down.
Ua hooki mai oe i kona nani, A ua hoolei i kona nohoalii ilalo i ka lepo.
45 Thou hast shortened the days of his youth, Hast covered him over [with] shame. (Selah)
Ua hoopokole mai oe i na la o kona wa opiopio; Ua uhi mai no hoi oe ia ia i ka hilahila. (Sila)
46 Till when, O Jehovah, art Thou hidden? For ever doth Thy fury burn as fire?
Pehea la ka loihi o kou hoonalo ana ia oe iho, e Iehova? E mau loa anei? E a mai nei anei kou huhu me he ahi la?
47 Remember, I pray Thee, what [is] life-time? Wherefore in vain hast Thou created All the sons of men?
E hoomanao mai oe ia'u, pehea la ka loihi o ke ola ana? No ke aha la oe i hana makehewa ai i na kanaka a pau?
48 Who [is] the man that liveth, and doth not see death? He delivereth his soul from the hand of Sheol. (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
Owai ke kanaka e ola nei, aole oia e ike i ka make? E hoopakele anei oia i kona ola, mai ka lima aku o ka mea make? (Sila) (Sheol h7585)
49 Where [are] Thy former kindnesses, O Lord. Thou hast sworn to David in Thy faithfulness,
Auhea la kou lokomaikai o na manawa kahiko, e ka Haku? Ka mea au i hoohiki ai ia Davida ma ka oiaio?
50 Remember, O Lord, the reproach of Thy servants, I have borne in my bosom all the strivings of the peoples,
E hoomanao mai oe, e ka Haku, i ka hoinoia o kau kauwa; Ua lawe no wau ma kou umauma i na lehulehu a pau o kou poe kanaka.
51 Wherewith Thine enemies reproached, O Jehovah, Wherewith they have reproached The steps of Thine anointed.
No ka mea, ua hoino wale mai kou poe enemi, e Iehova, Ua hoino wale mai hoi i na kapuwai o kou mea i poniia.
52 Blessed [is] Jehovah to the age. Amen, and amen!
E hoomaikaiia o Iehova, a i ka manawa pau ole. Amene, Amene.
