Halelu 102
1 E HOOLOHE mai oe i ka'u pule, e Iehova, A e hookomo aku i ko'u kahea ana imua ou.
A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed and pours out his complaint before the LORD. Hear my prayer, LORD! Let my cry come to you.
2 Mai huna oe i ko'u maka ia'u, I ka la o'u e pilikia'i e haliu mai kou pepeiao; I ka la a'u e hea aku ai, e ae koke mai oe ia'u.
Don’t hide your face from me in the day of my distress. Turn your ear to me. Answer me quickly in the day when I call.
3 Ua hoopauia ko'u mau la me he uwahi la, Ua pau i ke ahi ko'u mau iwi me he pihaa la.
For my days consume away like smoke. My bones are burned as a torch.
4 Ua moku ko'u naau, a ua mae hoi me he mauu la; Nolaila, ua poina ia'u ke ai i ka'u ai.
My heart is blighted like grass, and withered, for I forget to eat my bread.
5 No ka leo o ko'u kaniuhu ana, Ua pilipu ko'u mau iwi me ko'u io.
By reason of the voice of my groaning, my bones stick to my skin.
6 Ua like no au me ka pelikana o ka waonahele; Ua like no hoi au me ka pueo o ka waoakua.
I am like a pelican of the wilderness. I have become as an owl of the waste places.
7 Ua makaala no wau, A ua like hoi me na manuliilii noho mehameha maluna o ka hale.
I watch, and have become like a sparrow that is alone on the housetop.
8 Hoowahawaha mai ko'u poe enemi ia'u i na la a pau; O ka poe inaina mai ia'u, ua hoohiki lakou no'u.
My enemies reproach me all day. Those who are mad at me use my name as a curse.
9 Ua ai aku no au i ka lehu, e like me ka berena, A ua kawili pu au i ko'u mea inu me kuu waimaka,
For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mixed my drink with tears,
10 No kou huhu, a me kou inaina; No ka mea, ua hapai mai oe ia'u iluna, A ua ulupa mai oe ia'u ilalo,
because of your indignation and your wrath; for you have taken me up and thrown me away.
11 Ua auwi ae ko'u mau la, me he aka la; A ua mae hoi au me he mauu la.
My days are like a long shadow. I have withered like grass.
12 Aka, e mau loa ana no kou noho ana, e Iehova, A me kou hoomanao ana hoi, ia hanauna aku ia hanauna aku.
But you, LORD, will remain forever; your renown endures to all generations.
13 E ku mai auanei oe, a e aloha mai ia Ziona; No ka mea, o ka manawa e aloha'i, Ua hiki mai no ia manawa i oleloia.
You will arise and have mercy on Zion, for it is time to have pity on her. Yes, the set time has come.
14 Ua lealea kau poe kauwa ma kona mau pohaku, A ua aloha hoi i kona lepo.
For your servants take pleasure in her stones, and have pity on her dust.
15 E makau aku no ko na aina e i ka inoa o Iehova, A me na'lii a pau o ka honua i kou nani.
So the nations will fear the LORD’s name, all the kings of the earth your glory.
16 I ka wa e hooku ai o Iehova ia Ziona, Alaila, e ikeia'ku no oia maloko o kona nani.
For the LORD has built up Zion. He has appeared in his glory.
17 E haliu mai no oia i ka pule a ka poe nele, Aole ia e hoowahawaha i ka lakou pule ana.
He has responded to the prayer of the destitute, and has not despised their prayer.
18 E kakauia no keia no na hanauna o keia hope aku; I halelu aku ia Iehova ka poe kanaka e hanau mai la.
This will be written for the generation to come. A people which will be created will praise the LORD,
19 No ka mea, ua nana mai no oia, mai luna mai o kona wahi hoano; Mai ka lani mai hoi i nana mai o Iehova i ka honua;
for he has looked down from the height of his sanctuary. From heaven, the LORD saw the earth,
20 E hoolohe mai i ke kaniuhu ana o ka poe pio; A e hookuu hoi i na keiki o ka make:
to hear the groans of the prisoner, to free those who are condemned to death,
21 E hoike hoi ma Ziona, i ka inoa o Iehova, A me kona mau halelu hoi ma Ierusalema;
that men may declare the LORD’s name in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem,
22 I ka wa e akoakoa pu ai na kanaka, A me na aupuni hoi, e hookauwa aku na Iehova.
when the peoples are gathered together, the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.
23 Ua hoonawaliwali mai oia i ko'u ikaika ma ke ala; Ua hoopokole mai hoi i ko'u mau la.
He weakened my strength along the course. He shortened my days.
24 I iho la au. E kuu Akua e, Mai lawe aku ia'u maiwaena konu o ko'u mau la: Mai kela hanauna kou makahiki, a ia hanauna aku.
I said, “My God, don’t take me away in the middle of my days. Your years are throughout all generations.
25 I ka wa kahiko hookumu no oe i ka honua; A o ka lani hoi ka hana a kou mau lima.
Of old, you laid the foundation of the earth. The heavens are the work of your hands.
26 E pau auanei lakou, aka, e mau loa ana no oe; E elemakule no lakou me he kapa la; Aka, e hoomalule no oe ia lakou me he kapa hou la.
They will perish, but you will endure. Yes, all of them will wear out like a garment. You will change them like a cloak, and they will be changed.
27 Aka, ua oia mau no oe pela, Aole loa e pau kou mau makahiki.
But you are the same. Your years will have no end.
28 E mau ana no hoi na keiki o kau poe kauwa, A e hoonoho paa loa ia ka lakou poe mamo imua ou.
The children of your servants will continue. Their offspring will be established before you.”
