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 or Psalme of David. O God, mine heart is prepared, so is my tongue: I will sing and giue praise.

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

Awake viole and harpe: I will awake early.

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 praise thee, O Lord, among the people, and I wil sing vnto thee 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 mercy is great aboue the heauens, and thy trueth vnto 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.

Exalt thy self, O God, aboue the heauens, and let thy glorie be vpon all the earth,

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

That thy beloued may be deliuered: helpe with thy right hand and heare 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 holinesse: therefore I will reioyce, I shall deuide Shechem and measure 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 shalbe mine, and Manasseh shalbe mine: Ephraim also shalbe the strength of mine head: Iuda is my lawgiuer.

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 shalbe my washpot: ouer Edom wil I cast out my shoe: vpon Palestina wil I triumph.

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 leade mee into the strong citie? who will bring me vnto 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, which haddest forsaken vs, and diddest not goe foorth, 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.

Giue vs helpe against trouble: for vaine is the helpe of man.

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

Through God we shall doe valiantly: for he shall treade downe our enemies.
