Halelu 106
1 E HALELU aku ia Iehova. E mililani aku ia Iehova, no ka mea ua maikai ia; Ua mau loa hoi kona lokomaikai.
Praise the LORD! Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
2 Owai la ka mea e hai mai i na mea nui a Iehova? A e hoike mai hoi i kona hanohano a pau?
Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD, or fully declare all his praise?
3 Pomaikai ka poe malama i ka hoopono, A hana i ka pololei i na manawa a pau.
Blessed are those who keep justice. Blessed is one who does what is right at all times.
4 E hoomanao mai oe ia'u, e Iehova, Me au e aloha'i i kou poe kanaka; E haawi mai no hoi ia'u i kou hoola ana.
Remember me, LORD, with the favour that you show to your people. Visit me with your salvation,
5 I ike aku au i ka maikai o kou poe i waeia, I lealea hoi au ma ka lealea ana o kou lahuikanaka, I kaena hoi au ma kou poe hooilina.
that I may see the prosperity of your chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation, that I may glory with your inheritance.
6 Ua hewa pu no makou me ko makou poe kupuna, Ua lawehala hoi, a ua hana kolohe.
We have sinned with our fathers. We have committed iniquity. We have done wickedly.
7 O ko makou poe kupuna ma Aigupita, Aole lakou i hoomaopopo i kau mau hana mana; Aole hoi lakou i hoomanao i ka nui o kou lokomaikai; A hoonaukiuki aku la ma ke kai, ma ke Kaiula hoi.
Our fathers didn’t understand your wonders in Egypt. They didn’t remember the multitude of your loving kindnesses, but were rebellious at the sea, even at the Sea of Suf.
8 Aka, no kona inoa, hoola mai oia ia lakou, I hoike mai ai oia i kona mana.
Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power known.
9 Papa mai la oia i ke Kaiula, a maloo iho la ia; Alakai ae la oia ia lakou ma ka hohonu me he nahelehele la.
He rebuked the Sea of Suf also, and it was dried up; so he led them through the depths, as through a desert.
10 Hoola mai la oia ia lakou mai ka lima mai o ka poe inaina, A hoola panai hoi ia lakou mai ka lima mai o ka enemi.
He saved them from the hand of him who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11 Popoi mai la na wai i ko lakou poe enemi; Aole i hookoeia kekahi o lakou.
The waters covered their adversaries. There was not one of them left.
12 Alaila, hooiaio lakou i kana mau olelo, A oli iho la i mau halelu nona.
Then they believed his words. They sang his praise.
13 Poina koke ia lakou kana mau hana, Aole lakou i kakali i kana ao ana.
They soon forgot his works. They didn’t wait for his counsel,
14 Kuko nui no lakou ma ka waonahele, A hoao lakou i ke Akua, ma ka waoakua.
but gave in to craving in the desert, and tested God in the wasteland.
15 Haawi mai la oia ia lakou i ka mea a lakou i noi aku ai; A haawi mai nae i ka hookii iloko o ko lakou uhane.
He gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.
16 Huahua lakou ia Mose ma kahi hoomoana'i, A me Aarona hoi ka haipule a Iehova.
They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron, the LORD’s holy one.
17 Wahi ae la ka honua, a moni iho la ia Datana, A poi mai la hoi maluna o ke anaina o Abirama,
The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.
18 Hoaaia ke ahi ma ko lakou anaina, A pau iho la ka poe hewa i ka lapalapa ahi.
A fire was kindled in their company. The flame burnt up the wicked.
19 Hana no lakou i keiki bipi ma Horeba, A kulou hoomana lakou ia kii hooheheeia.
They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped a molten image.
20 Hoololi lakou i ko lakou nani I ke ano o ka bipi e ai ana i ka mauu.
Thus they exchanged their glory for an image of a bull that eats grass.
21 Poina ia lakou ke Akua, ko lakou Hoola, Ka mea i hana i na mea nui ma Aigupita;
They forgot God, their Saviour, who had done great things in Egypt,
22 Na mea kupanaha hoi ma ka aina o Hama, Na mea weliweli hoi ma ke Kaiula.
wondrous works in the land of Ham, and awesome things by the Sea of Suf.
23 Alaila, olelo no oia e luku ia lakou, Ina i ku ole o Mose, kona mea i waeia ma ka hakahaka imua ona. E pale aku i kona huhu i ole ia e luku mai.
Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had Moses, his chosen, not stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, so that he wouldn’t destroy them.
24 A hoowahawaha no hoi lakou i ka aina aloha, Aole hoi i hooiaio i kana olelo.
Yes, they despised the pleasant land. They didn’t believe his word,
25 Ohumu iho lakou ma ko lakou mau halelewa. Aole hoi i hoolohe i ka leo o Iehova.
but murmured in their tents, and didn’t listen to the LORD’s voice.
26 Alaila, hoana ae la oia i kona lima, E hoohina ia lakou ma ka waonahele;
Therefore he swore to them that he would overthrow them in the wilderness,
27 E hoohina hoi i ka lakou poe mamo mawaena o ko na aina e, A e hooauhee ia lakou maluna o ka honua.
that he would overthrow their offspring amongst the nations, and scatter them in the lands.
28 Hoopili ae la lakou ia Baalapeora, A ai no hoi lakou i na mohai o ka poe i make.
They joined themselves also to Baal Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
29 Hoonaukiuki aku lakou ma ka lakou hana ana; A puka mai la ka mai make iwaena o lakou.
Thus they provoked him to anger with their deeds. The plague broke in on them.
30 Alaila ku ae la o Pinehasa iluna, a hoopai iho la, A hookiia ua mai make la.
Then Phinehas stood up and executed judgement, so the plague was stopped.
31 Manaoia'e la ia, he pono nona, I kela hanauna, i keia hanauna, a mau loa aku.
That was credited to him for righteousness, for all generations to come.
32 Hoonaukiuki aku lakou ia ia ma na wai o Meriba, A hewa o Mose, no lakou la.
They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled for their sakes;
33 No ka mea, hookuee lakou i ka manao ana, A olelo pono ole mai la oia ma kona mau lehelehe.
because they were rebellious against his spirit, he spoke rashly with his lips.
34 Aole lakou i luku ae i na lahuikanaka, A Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia lakou.
They didn’t destroy the peoples, as the LORD commanded them,
35 Ua huiia no lakou me ko na aina e, A ao mai la lakou i ka lakou mau hana.
but mixed themselves with the nations, and learnt their works.
36 Malama aku no hoi i ko lakou poe akua kii, A lilo ia i pahele na lakou.
They served their idols, which became a snare to them.
37 Alaila, mohai aku la lakou i ka lakou poe keikikane, A me ka lakou poe kaikamahine no na daimonio.
Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.
38 Hookahe ae la lakou i ke koko hala ole, I ke koko hoi o ka lakou poe keikikane, a me ka lakou poe kaikamahine, Na mea a lakou i mohai aku ai i na'kua kii o Kanaana; A hoohaumiaia ka aina i ke koko.
They shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan. The land was polluted with blood.
39 A haumia no hoi lakou i ka lakou mau hana, A moe kolohe lakou me na mea a lakou i hana'i.
Thus they were defiled with their works, and prostituted themselves in their deeds.
40 Nolaila, hoaaia ka inaina o Iehova i kona poe kanaka, A hoopailua mai la oia i kona hooilina iho.
Therefore the LORD burnt with anger against his people. He abhorred his inheritance.
41 A haawi ae la ia ia lakou i ka lima o ko na aina e; A noho alii maluna o lakou ka poe inaina mai ia lakou.
He gave them into the hand of the nations. Those who hated them ruled over them.
42 Hookaumaha mai no hoi ko lakou poe enemi ia lakou, A hoohaahaaia mai no hoi malalo iho o ko lakou lima.
Their enemies also oppressed them. They were brought into subjection under their hand.
43 Hoopakele pinepine mai la oia ia lakou; Aka, hoonaukiuki aku lakou ia ia, ma ko lakou manao, A hokii iho la lakou no ko lakou hewa.
He rescued them many times, but they were rebellious in their counsel, and were brought low in their iniquity.
44 Alaila, ike mai la oia i ko lakou pilikia, Ia ia i lohe ai i ko lakou olo pihe ana.
Nevertheless he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry.
45 A hoomanao mai la oia i kona berita me lakou, A minamina iho la oia, e like me ka nui o kona lokomaikai ana.
He remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
46 Alaila, haawi mai la oia ia lakou I ke alohaia imua o ka poe a pau i lawe pio ia lakou.
He made them also to be pitied by all those who carried them captive.
47 E hoola mai oe ia makou, e Iehova, e ko makou Akua, E hoiliili mai ia makou, maiwaena mai o ko na aina e, I mililani aku makou i ka inoa hoano, A e hiilani aku hoi ma kou halelu.
Save us, LORD, our God, gather us from amongst the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise!
48 E hoomaikaiia o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, Mai kahiko loa mai, a mau loa aku no: E i mai no hoi na kanaka a pau, Amene. E halelu aku ia Iehova.
Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting even to everlasting! Let all the people say, “Amen.” Praise the LORD!
