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 Melody: David’s. Fixed, is my heart, O God, I will sing and touch the strings, even mine honour.
2 E ala mai, e ke kuolokani, a me ka mea kani; E ala no hoi au i ka wanaao.
Awake, O harp and lyre, I will awaken 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 thank thee among the peoples, O Yahweh, and will sing praise unto thee, among the tribes of men.
4 No ka mea, ua nui kou lokomaikai maluna o ka lani, A me kou oiaio maluna o na ao.
For, great, above the heavens, is thy lovingkindness, and, as far as the skies, thy faithfulness.
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, above all the earth, be thy glory.
6 I hoopakeleia kou poe aloha, E hoola mai oe me kou lima akau, a e hoolohe ia makou.
To the end thy beloved ones may be delivered, Oh save thou 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 apportion Shechem! And, the Vale of Succoth, will I measure out;
8 Na'u o Gileada, na'u o Manase, o Eperaima ka pale o kuu poo, A o Iuda hoi ka'u kakaolelo;
Mine, is Gilead—mine, Manasseh, but, Ephraim, is the defence of my head, Judah, is my commander’s staff;
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-bowl, Upon Edom, will I throw my shoe, Over Philistia, raise a shout of 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 conduct me to a fortified city? Who will lead me as far as 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?
Hast not thou, O God, rejected us? and wilt not go forth, O God, 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.
Grant us help out of distress, for, vain, is the deliverance of man:
13 Ma ke Akua kakou e loaa'i ka ikaika, Nana no e hahi i ko kakou poe enemi.
In God, shall we do valiantly, He himself, therefore, shall tread down our adversaries.
