Halelu 130

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

A song for pilgrims going up to Jerusalem. Lord, I cry out to you from the depths of my pain.

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.

Please listen to my cry, and pay attention to what I'm asking.

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

Lord, if you kept a list of sins, who could escape being condemned?

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

But you are forgiving so that we might respect you.

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

I'm waiting for the Lord, longingly waiting, for I trust in his word.

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.

I long for the Lord to come, more than watchmen longing for the dawn to come, more than watchmen longing for the dawn to come.

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.

Israel, put your hope in the Lord, for the Lord loves us with a trustworthy love and his salvation knows no limits.

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

He will save Israel from every sin.
