Halelu 139
1 E IEHOVA, ua haka pono mai oe ia'u, a ua ike hoi.
Lord, thou hast proved me, and known me:
2 Ua ike no oe i ko'u noho ana ilalo, a me ko'u ala ana iluna, Ua maopopo hoi ko'u manao ia oe ma kahi loihi e aku.
Thou hast know my sitting down, and my rising up.
3 Ua hoao mai oe i ko'u ala ana, a me ko'u moe ana, A ua ikea no ko'u mau aoao a pau ia oe.
Thou hast understood my thoughts afar off: my path and my line thou hast searched out.
4 No ka mea, aohe olelo ma ko'u alelo, Aia hoi, e Iehova, ua ike no oe ia mau mea a pau.
And thou hast foreseen all my ways: for there is no speech in my tongue.
5 Ua hooke mai oe ia'u, ma hope, a mamua, A ua kau mai i kou lima maluna o'u.
Behold, O Lord, thou hast known all things, the last and those of old: thou hast formed me, and hast laid thy hand upon me.
6 Ua oi aku ke kupanaha o ia ike ana mamua o ko'u, Ua kiekie loa, aole au e hiki aku ilaila.
Thy knowledge is become wonderful to me: it is high, and I cannot reach to it.
7 Mahea la wau e hele ai, mai ko'u uhane aku? Mahea la wau e pee aku ai, mai kou alo aku?
Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy face?
8 Ina pii aku au i ka lani malaila no oe, Inaehalii au i kahi moe ma ka malu o ka make, aia no oe; (Sheol h7585)
If I ascend into heaven, thou art there: if I descend into hell, thou art present. (Sheol h7585)
9 Ina lawe au i na eheu o ke kakahiaka, A noho hoi ma na kihi o ka moana;
If I take my wings early in the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea:
10 Malaila no kou lima e alakai ai ia'u, A na kou lima akua hoi e hoopaa ia'u.
Even there also shall thy hand lead me: and thy right hand shall hold me.
11 A ina olelo au, Oiaio, e haule mai ka pouli maluna o'u, Alaila, e lilo no ka po i malamalama a puni au.
And I said: Perhaps darkness shall cover me: and night shall be my light in my pleasures.
12 Aole hoi e hoonalo ka pouli i kekahi mea ia oe, Hoomalamalama mai ka po me he ao la: Ua like no ka pouli, ua like hoi ka malamalama.
But darkness shall not be dark to thee, and night shall be light as day: the darkness thereof, and the light thereof are alike to thee.
13 No ka mea, nau no i hooponopono i ko'u naau; A nau hoi i malama mai ia'u, ma ka opu o ko'u makuwahine.
For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast protected me from my mother’s womb.
14 E mililani aku au ia oe, No ka mea, o kau hana kupanaha no wau a me ka makau; He kupanaha hoi kau mau hana, Ua ike pono no ko'u uhane.
I will praise thee, for thou art fearfully magnified: wonderful are thy works, and my soul knoweth right well.
15 Aole i nalo ko'u kino ia oe, Ia'u i hanaia'i ma kahi malu, A kapili akamai ia malalo i ka honua.
My bone is not hidden from thee, which thou hast made in secret: and my substance in the lower parts of the earth.
16 Ike mai no kou mau maka i ko'u opuu ana; A pau no hoi i ke kakauia iloko o kau buke, Na mea o'u i hooponoponoia'i mahope, Ia manawa, aole kekahi o ia mau mea.
Thy eyes did see my imperfect being, and in thy book all shall be written: days shall be formed, and no one in them.
17 A ia'u hoi, nani ka waiwai o kou mau manao, e ke Akua! Nani hoi ka lehulehu o ko lakou mau haina!
But to me thy friends, O God, are made exceedingly honourable: their principality is exceedingly strengthened.
18 Ina e helu wau, ua oi aku ko lakou kinikini mamua o ke one: Ia'u e ala'i, ua mau loa no au me oe.
I will number them, and they shall be multiplied above the sand: I rose up and am still with thee.
19 E pepehi io mai no oe i ka poe hewa, e ke Akua; E na kanaka koko, e hele aku oukou, mai o'u aku nei.
If thou wilt kill the wicked, O God: ye men of blood, depart from me:
20 Ka poe olelo hewa aku ia oe, Ua hookieide kou poe enemi ma ka lapuwale.
Because you say in thought: They shall receive thy cities in vain.
21 E Iehova, aole anei au i inaina aku i ka poe inaina ia oe? A hoopailua hoi i ka poe ala ku e ia oe?
Have I not hated them, O Lord, that hated thee: and pine away because of thy enemies?
22 Ua inaina aku au ia lakou, me ka inaina hemolele; He poe enemi lakou no'u.
I have hated them with a perfect hatred: and they are become enemies to me.
23 E huli mai oe ia'u, e ke Akua, a e ike i ko'u naau; E hoao mai oe ia'u, a e ike i ko'u manao.
Prove me, O God, and know my heart: examine me, and know my paths.
24 E nana mai hoi ina paha he aoao hewa iloko o'u, A e alakai ia'u ma ka aoao ola loa.
And see if there be in me the way of iniquity: and lead me in the eternal way.
