Halelu 125

1 O KA poe hilinai aku ia Iehova, E like no lakou me ka mauna o Ziona, Aole ia e naue, e noho mau loa no.

They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Sion: he shall not be moved for ever that dwelleth

2 Ua puni o Ierusalema i na mauna, Pela o Iehova e hoopuni ai i kona poe kanaka, Mai keia wa aku, a i ka manawa pau ole.

In Jerusalem. Mountains are round about it: so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth now and for ever.

3 Aole e waihoia ke kookoo o ka poe hewa, Ma ka puu o ka poe pono; O kau aku ka poe pono i ko lakou lima ma ka hewa.

For the Lord will not leave the rod of sinners upon the lot of the just: that the just may not stretch forth their hands to iniquity.

4 E hana maikai mai oe, e Iehova, i ka poe maikai, A i ka poe hoi i pololei ma ko lakou naau.

Do good, O Lord, to those that are good, and to the upright of heart.

5 O ka poe kapae ma ko lakou ala keekee, E alakai pu aku no o Iehova ia lakou me ka poe hana lapuwale; A he malu no maluna o ka Iseraela.

But such as turn aside into bonds, the Lord shall lead out with the workers of iniquity: peace upon Israel.
