Halelu 135
1 E HALELU aku ia Iehova, e halelu aku i ka inoa o Iehova; E halelu aku hoi oukou, e na kauwa a Iehova.
Praise ye Jah! Praise ye the name of Jehovah, Praise, ye servants of Jehovah,
2 Ka poe e ku ana ma ka hale o Iehova, Ma na kahua hoi o ka hale o ko kakou Akua,
Who are standing in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God.
3 E halelu aku ia Iehova, no ka mea, ua maikai o Iehova; E hoolea aku i kona inoa, no ka mea, he mea lealea ia.
Praise ye Jah! for Jehovah [is] good, Sing praise to His name, for [it is] pleasant.
4 No ka mea, ua wae mai o Iehova i ka Iakoba nona, A i ka Iseraela hoi i waiwai nona.
For Jacob hath Jah chosen for Himself, Israel for His peculiar treasure.
5 No ka mea, ua ike au, he nui o Iehova, A o ko kakou Haku hoi maluna o na akua a pau;
For I have known that great [is] Jehovah, Yea, our Lord [is] above all gods.
6 O na mea a pau a Iehova i makemake ai, Ua hana oia ma ka lani, a ma ka honua, A ma na moana, a ma na wahi hohonu a pau.
All that Jehovah pleased He hath done, In the heavens and in earth, In the seas and all deep places,
7 Nana no e hoopii ka ohu mai na kihi aku o ka honua; Nana no e hana na uwila no ka ua, A hoopuka mai la oia i ka makani mailoko mai o kona waihona.
Causing vapours to ascend from the end of the earth, Lightnings for the rain He hath made, Bringing forth wind from His treasures.
8 Nana no i pepehi ka makahiapo o ko Aigupita, Ka ke kanaka, a me ka ka holoholona hoi.
Who smote the first-born of Egypt, From man unto beast.
9 Hoouna mai la oia i na hoailona a me na hana mana, Iwaena konu ou, e Aigupita; Imua o Parao, a imua o kana poe kauwa a pau.
He sent tokens and wonders into thy midst, O Egypt, On Pharaoh and on all his servants.
10 Pepehi no oia i ko na aina, he nui loa, A luku mai i na'lii he koa loa;
Who smote many nations, and slew strong kings,
11 Ia Sihona ke alii o ko Amora, ia Oga hoi ke alii o Basana, A me ko na aupuni a pau o Kanaana.
Even Sihon king of the Amorite, And Og king of Bashan, And all kingdoms of Canaan.
12 A haawi mai la oia i ko lakou aina i hooilina, I hooilina hoi no ka Iseraela no kona poe kanaka.
And He gave their land an inheritance, An inheritance to Israel His people,
13 E Iehova, e mau loa ana no kou inoa; E Iehova, e hoomanaoia no oe i na hanauna a pau.
O Jehovah, Thy name [is] to the age, O Jehovah, Thy memorial to all generations.
14 No ka mea, e hoapono mai o Iehova i kona poe kanaka, E minamina mai no oia i kana poe kauwa.
For Jehovah doth judge His people, And for His servants comforteth Himself.
15 O na akua o ko na aina e, he kala, a he gula, O ka hana o ko kanaka lima.
The idols of the nations [are] silver and gold, Work of the hands of man.
16 He waha no ko lakou, aole nae e olelo mai; He mau maka no ko lakou, aole nae e ike mai;
A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not,
17 He mau pepeiao no hoi ko lakou, aole nae e lohe mai; Aohe hoi ea maloko o ko lakou waha.
Ears they have, and they give not ear, Nose — there is no breath in their mouth!
18 O ka poe i hana mai ia lakou, ua like kela poe me lakou: A me na mea a pau e hilinai ai ia lakou.
Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them.
19 E ka ohana a ka Iseraela, e hoomaikai aku oukou ia Iehova; E ka ohana a Aarona, e hoomaikai aku oukou ia Iehova;
O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah, O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah,
20 E ka ohana a Levi, e hoomaikai aku oukou ia Iehova; E ka poe i makau ia Iehova, e hoomaikai aku oukou ia Iehova.
O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah, Those fearing Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah.
21 Mai Ziona mai e hoomaikaiia'i o Iehova, Ka mea e noho la ma Ierusalema. E halelu aku oukou ia Iehova.
Blessed [is] Jehovah from Zion, Inhabiting Jerusalem — praise ye Jah!
