Halelu 2

1 NO ke aha la e kupikipikio ai ko ka aina e? A e noonoo ai ka poe kanaka i ka mea lapuwale?

Why doe the heathen rage, and the people murmure in vaine?

2 Ua ku e aku na'lii o ka honua, Ua ohumu pu aku no hoi na luna, Ia Iehova, a i kona Mea i poniia,

The Kings of the earth band themselues, and the princes are assembled together against the Lord, and against his Christ.

3 E moku aku kakou i ka laua mau mea paa, A e hoolei aku hoi mai o kakou aku nei i ka laua mau kaula.

Let vs breake their bands, and cast their cordes from vs.

4 O ka Mea e noho ana ma ka lani, e aka mai no ia: A e hoomahua mai no hoi o ka Haku ia lakou.

But he that dwelleth in the heauen, shall laugh: the Lord shall haue them in derision.

5 Alaila e olelo mai oia ia lakou i kona inaina, A e hoomakaua mai hoi ia lakou i kona huhu nui.

Then shall hee speake vnto them in his wrath, and vexe them in his sore displeasure, saying,

6 Ua poni ae nei au i ka'u Alii maluna o Ziona, Maluna iho o ko'u mauna hoano.

Euen I haue set my King vpon Zion mine holy mountaine.

7 E hai aku au i ke kauoha: Ua olelo mai la o Iehova ia'u, O oe no ka'u Keiki; I keia la no, ua hoohanau aku wau ia oe.

I will declare the decree: that is, the Lord hath said vnto me, Thou art my Sonne: this day haue I begotten thee.

8 E noi mai oe ia'u, a e haawi aku au ia oe I na lahuikanaka i hooilina nou, A i waiwai hoi nou na welelau o ka honua.

Aske of me, and I shall giue thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the endes of the earth for thy possession.

9 E uhai oe ia lakou me ke kookoo hao: E ulupa hoi oe ia lakou me he ipulepo la.

Thou shalt krush them with a scepter of yron, and breake them in pieces like a potters vessell.

10 No ia hoi, e hoonaauao oukou, e na alii; E aoia'ku no hoi oukou, e na lunakanawai o ka honua.

Be wise nowe therefore, ye Kings: be learned ye Iudges of the earth.

11 E malama ia Iehova me ka weliweli, E hauoli hoi oukou me ka haalulu.

Serue the Lord in feare, and reioyce in trembling.

12 E honi aku i ke Keiki, o huhu mai ia, O make hoi oukou ia aoao, ke hoa iki ia mai kona inaina. Pomaikai wale ka poe a pau i hilinai aku ia ia.

Kisse the sonne, least he be angry, and ye perish in the way, when his wrath shall suddenly burne. blessed are all that trust in him.
