Halelu 108

1 U A paa kuu naau, e ke Akua; E oli aku no au, a e hoolea aku hoi, a me ko'u nani.

A Song, a Psalm of David. My heart is fixed, O God: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms, even [with] my glory.

2 E ala mai, e ke kuolokani, a me ka mea kani; E ala no hoi au i ka wanaao.

Awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn.

3 E mililani aku au ia oe, e Iehova, iwaena o na kanaka; A e hoolea aku ia oe iwaena o na lahuikanaka.

I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Jehovah; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations:

4 No ka mea, ua nui kou lokomaikai maluna o ka lani, A me kou oiaio maluna o na ao.

For thy loving-kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is unto the clouds.

5 Ua kiekie loa no oe, e ke Akua, maluna o ka lani, A me kou nani hoi maluna o ka honua a pau.

Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God, and thy glory above all the earth.

6 I hoopakeleia kou poe aloha, E hoola mai oe me kou lima akau, a e hoolohe ia makou.

That thy beloved ones may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.

7 I mai la ke Akua ma kona mea hemolele, E hooho aku au, e mahele au ia Sekema, A e ana aku au i ke awawa o Sukota.

God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

8 Na'u o Gileada, na'u o Manase, o Eperaima ka pale o kuu poo, A o Iuda hoi ka'u kakaolelo;

Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine, and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;

9 O Moaba ko'u ipu holoi, e hoolei au i ko'u kamaa maluna o Edoma, E kahea olioli no wau maluna o Pilisetia.

Moab is my wash-pot; upon Edom will I cast my sandal; over Philistia will I shout aloud.

10 Owai la ka mea e alakai ia'u i ke kulanakauhale paa? Owai ka mea alako ia'u a hiki i Edoma?

Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me unto Edom?

11 Aole anei oe, e ke Akua, ka mea i kipaku mai ia makou? E ke Akua, aole anei oe e hele pu me ko makou mau kaua?

[Wilt] not [thou], O God, who didst cast us off? and didst not go forth, O God, with our armies?

12 E haawi mai oe i ke kokuaia mai no ka pilikia; No ka mea, makehewa ke kokua ana o ke kanaka.

Give us help from trouble; for vain is man's deliverance.

13 Ma ke Akua kakou e loaa'i ka ikaika, Nana no e hahi i ko kakou poe enemi.

Through God we shall do valiantly; and he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
