Halelu 131

1 E IEHOVA, aole i hookiekie ko'u naau, Aole hookano ko'u mau maka; Aole au i hele mamuli o ua mea nunui, A me na mea hakalia ia'u.

A song of ascents. Of David. O Lord, my heart is not haughty, my eyes are not lofty, I walk not among great things, things too wonderful for me.

2 A i ole ia, ua hoona wau ia'u iho, a ua hoomalielie au i ko'u uhane, E like me ke keiki i ukuhiia e kona makuwahine; Ua like no ko'u uhane me ke keiki i ukuhiia.

Yes, I have soothed and stilled myself, like a young child on his mother’s lap; like a young child am I.

3 E hoolana o ka Iseraela ma Iehova, Mai keia wa aku. a i ke ao pau ole.

O Israel, hope in the Lord from now and for evermore.
