Halelu 133

1 A IA hoi, nani ka maikai a me ka oluolu, O ka noho lokahi pu ana o na hoahanau!

A Song of the Ascents, by David. Lo, how good and how pleasant The dwelling of brethren — even together!

2 Ua like ia me ka poni maikai ma ke poo, Ka mea i kahe ilalo ma ka umiumi, Ma ka umiumi hoi o Aarona, A hiki hoi ilalo i na kihi o kona mau aahu.

As the good oil on the head, Coming down on the beard, the beard of Aaron, That cometh down on the skirt of his robes,

3 Ua like ia me ka hau o Heremona, Ka mea i haule mai maluna o na mauna o Ziona; No ka mea, malaila no i kauoha mai ai o Iehova i ka hoomaikaiia, I ke ola hoi, a hiki i ka manawa pau ole.

As dew of Hermon — That cometh down on hills of Zion, For there Jehovah commanded the blessing — Life unto the age!
