Halelu 21

1 E IEHOVA, e hauoli aku ke alii i kou mana; Nani hoi kona olioli ana i kou ola.

TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH, the king is joyful in Your strength, How greatly he rejoices in Your salvation.

2 Ua haawi mai oe ia ia i ka mea a kona naau i makemake ai; Aole oe i hoole i ka mea a kona lehelehe i noi aku ai. (Sila)

You gave the desire of his heart to him, And You have not withheld the request of his lips. (Selah)

3 A, ua haawi e mai oe ia ia i pomaikai i ka pono; Ua kau mai oe i ka lei gula maemae maluna iho o kona poo.

For You put blessings of goodness before him, You set a crown of fine gold on his head.

4 Ua noi aku oia ia oe i ola, nau no ia i haawi mai nona; O ke ola loa i ka manawa pau ole.

He has asked for life from You, You have given length of days to him, For all time and forever.

5 He nui wale kona nani i kou ola; O ka mahalo, a me ka hanohano kau i kau mai ai maluna iho ona.

Great [is] his glory in Your salvation, You place splendor and majesty on him.

6 Ua hoopomaikai io mau loa oe ia ia; Ua hoohauoli loa oe ia ia i kou maka.

For You make him blessings forever, You cause him to rejoice with joy, By Your countenance.

7 No ka mea, na hilinai aku ke alii ia Iehova, No ka lokomaikai o ka Mea kiekie loa e kulanalana ole ai ia.

For the king is trusting in YHWH, And in the kindness of the Most High he is not moved.

8 E loaa no i kou lima kou mau enemi a pau; E loaa no i kou lima akau ka poe inaina ia oe.

Your hand comes to all Your enemies, Your right hand finds Your haters.

9 E hoohalike no oe ia lakou me he umu ahi la i kou wa e huhu ai; E ale no Iehova ia lakou i kona inaina, e pau hoi lakou i ke ahi.

You make them as a furnace of fire, At the time of Your presence. YHWH swallows them in His anger, And fire devours them.

10 Nau no ka lakou hua e luku aku, mai ka honua aku, A me ka lakou mamo, mai waena aku o na keiki a kanaka.

You destroy their fruit from earth, And their seed from the sons of men.

11 No ka mea, ua hoopalahalaha lakou i ka ino nou; Ua kuka lakou i ka manao hewa, aole hoi i hiki.

For they stretched out evil against You, They devised a wicked scheme, they do not prevail,

12 Nolaila, e hoohuli mai oe i ko lakou kua; Ke hoomakaukau oe i na pua i kau mau kaula, i ku pono i ko lakou alo.

For You make them turn their back, When You prepare Your strings against their faces.

13 E hapaiia'ku oe, e Iehova, i kou ikaika; E oli no hoi makou me ka hoolea aku i kou mana.

Be exalted, O YHWH, in Your strength, We sing and we praise Your might!
