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] Psalm of David. O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, 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, psaltery and harp: I [myself] 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 will sing praises unto 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 above the heavens: and thy truth [reacheth] 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, O God, above the heavens: 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 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 rejoice, 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; Ephraim also [is] the strength of mine head; Judah [is] my lawgiver;

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 washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will 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 bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into 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] hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

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] the help 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 do valiantly: for he [it is that] shall tread down our enemies.
