Halelu 112

1 E HALELU aku ia Iehova. Pomaikai ke kanaka i makau aku ia Iehova, A lealea nui hoi ma kana mau kauoha.

Praise ye Yah! How happy is the man who revereth Yahweh, In his commandments, delighteth he greatly;

2 E nui ana auanei kana poe mamo ma ka honua; E pomaikai auanei ka hanauna o ka poe pololei.

Mighty in the earth, shall be his seed, The generation of the upright, shall be blessed;

3 Aia ma kona hale ka waiwai a me ka ukana; A e mau loa ana no kona pono.

Wealth and riches, shall be in his house, and, his righteousness, standeth for aye.

4 No ka poe pono, puka mai no ka malamalama mailoko mai o ka pouli; He aloha, he lokomaikai, a he pono kona.

Risen—in darkness, is light to the upright, The gracious and compassionate and righteous.

5 O ke kanaka maikai, aloha ae la ia a haawi ae no hoi: Hooponopono no oia i kona mau mea, me ka naauao.

Well for a man showing favour and lending! He shall sustain his affairs with justice.

6 Aole ia e kulanalana, a i ke ao pau ole; E hoomanao mau loa ia no hoi ka poe pono.

Surely, unto times age-abiding, shall he not be shaken, In remembrance, age-abiding, shall the righteous one remain;

7 Aole ia e makau i ka lono ana i na mea hewa; Ua onipaa kona naau, me ka hilinai aku ia Iehova.

Of evil tidings, shall he not be afraid, Established is his heart, led to trust in Yahweh;

8 Ua kooia kona naau, aole ia e makau, A ike aku oia i ka mea maluna o kona poe enemi.

Upheld is his heart, he shall not be afraid, until that he gazeth on his foes.

9 Ua lulu aku oia, ua haawi wale i ka poe ilihune, E mau loa ana no kona pono; E hookiekieia kona pepeiaohao me ka hanohano.

He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy, His righteousness, standeth for aye, His horn, shall be exalted in honour.

10 E ike mai no ka poe hewa, a huahua; E uwi no kona mau niho a e hehee wale oia: E pau auanei ka mea a ka poe hewa i makemake ai.

The lawless one, shall see, and be indignant, his teeth, will he gnash and melt away, The craving of the lawless, shall vanish.
