Halelu 130

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

A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths, have I cried unto thee, O Yahweh.

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.

O My Lord! hearken thou unto my voice, —Let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications,

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

If, iniquities, thou shouldest mark, O Yah, O My Lord, who could stand?

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

But, with thee, is forgiveness, that thou mayest be revered.

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

I have waited for Yahweh, My soul hath waited for 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 have hoped, O my soul, for My Lord, more than they who watch for the morning, who watch 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.

Wait, O Israel, for Yahweh, —for, with Yahweh, is lovingkindness, and there aboundeth with him—redemption.

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

He, therefore, will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
