Halelu 130

1 MAILOKO o na wahi hohonu, ua kahea aku au i oe, e Iehova.

A Song of degrees. Out of the depths do I call upon thee, Jehovah.

2 E ka Haku e, e hoolohe mai oe i ko'u leo; E haliu mai kou pepeiao i ka leo o ko'u nonoi ana.

Lord, hear my voice; let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

3 Ina ma ka hala oe e haka pono mai ai, e Iehova, E ka Haku, owai la ka mea e ku.

If thou, Jah, shouldest mark iniquities, Lord, who shall stand?

4 Aka, ma ou la ke kala ana o ka hala, I makauia'ku ai oe.

But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

5 Ke kakali nei au, ke kakali nei ko'u uhane ia Iehova, A ke hoolana nei au ma kana olelo.

I wait for Jehovah; my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

6 Ua oi aku ke kakali ana o ko'u uhane i ka Haku, Mamua o ko ka poe kiai kakali ana i ke ao.

My soul [waiteth] for the Lord more than the watchers [wait] for the morning, [more than] the watchers for the morning.

7 E kakali o ka Iseraela ia Iehova, no ka mea, Me Iehova no ka lokomaikai, a me ia no hoi ka hoolapanai nui wale.

Let Israel hope in Jehovah, because with Jehovah there is loving-kindness, and with him is plenteous redemption;

8 Nana no e hoolapanai i ka Iseraela, Mailoko aku o ko lakou hewa a pau.

And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
