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 feeble, and before Jehovah poureth out his plaint. O Jehovah, hear my prayer, yea, my cry to Thee cometh.
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.
Hide not Thou Thy face from me, In a day of mine adversity, Incline unto me Thine ear, In the day I call, haste, answer me.
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 consumed in smoke have been my days, And my bones as a fire-brand have burned.
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.
Smitten as the herb, and withered, is my heart, For I have forgotten to eat my bread.
5 No ka leo o ko'u kaniuhu ana, Ua pilipu ko'u mau iwi me ko'u io.
From the voice of my sighing Hath my bone cleaved to my flesh.
6 Ua like no au me ka pelikana o ka waonahele; Ua like no hoi au me ka pueo o ka waoakua.
I have been like to a pelican of the wilderness, I have been as an owl of the dry places.
7 Ua makaala no wau, A ua like hoi me na manuliilii noho mehameha maluna o ka hale.
I have watched, and I am As a bird alone on the roof.
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.
All the day mine enemies reproached me, Those mad at me have sworn against me.
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,
Because ashes as bread I have eaten, And my drink with weeping have mingled,
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,
From Thine indignation and Thy wrath, For Thou hast lifted me up, And dost cast me down.
11 Ua auwi ae ko'u mau la, me he aka la; A ua mae hoi au me he mauu la.
My days as a shadow [are] stretched out, And I — as the herb I am withered.
12 Aka, e mau loa ana no kou noho ana, e Iehova, A me kou hoomanao ana hoi, ia hanauna aku ia hanauna aku.
And Thou, O Jehovah, to the age abidest, And Thy memorial 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.
Thou — Thou risest — Thou pitiest Zion, For the time to favour her, For the appointed time hath come.
14 Ua lealea kau poe kauwa ma kona mau pohaku, A ua aloha hoi i kona lepo.
For Thy servants have been pleased with her stones, And her dust they favour.
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.
And nations fear the name of Jehovah, And all kings of the earth Thine honour,
16 I ka wa e hooku ai o Iehova ia Ziona, Alaila, e ikeia'ku no oia maloko o kona nani.
For Jehovah hath builded Zion, He hath been seen in His honour,
17 E haliu mai no oia i ka pule a ka poe nele, Aole ia e hoowahawaha i ka lakou pule ana.
He turned unto the prayer of the destitute, And He hath 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 is written for a later generation, And the people created do praise Jah.
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 hath looked From the high place of His sanctuary. Jehovah from heaven unto earth looked attentively,
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 groan of the prisoner, To loose sons of death,
21 E hoike hoi ma Ziona, i ka inoa o Iehova, A me kona mau halelu hoi ma Ierusalema;
To declare in Zion the name of Jehovah, 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.
In the peoples being gathered together, And the kingdoms — to serve Jehovah.
23 Ua hoonawaliwali mai oia i ko'u ikaika ma ke ala; Ua hoopokole mai hoi i ko'u mau la.
He hath humbled in the way my power, He hath 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 say, 'My God, take me not up in the midst of my days,' Through all generations [are] Thine years.
25 I ka wa kahiko hookumu no oe i ka honua; A o ka lani hoi ka hana a kou mau lima.
Beforetime the earth Thou didst found, And the work of Thy hands [are] the heavens.
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 — They perish, and Thou remainest, And all of them as a garment become old, As clothing Thou changest them, And they are changed.
27 Aka, ua oia mau no oe pela, Aole loa e pau kou mau makahiki.
And Thou [art] the same, and Thine years are not finished.
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 sons of Thy servants do continue, And their seed before Thee is established!
