Halelu 21
1 E IEHOVA, e hauoli aku ke alii i kou mana; Nani hoi kona olioli ana i kou ola.
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” The king rejoiceth in thy strength, O LORD! Yea, he doth greatly exult in thy protection.
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)
Thou hast given him his heart's desire, And hast not denied him the request of his lips. (Pause)
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.
Yea, thou hast met him with rich blessings, Thou hast placed a crown of pure gold upon 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 asked life of thee; thou gavest it him; Even long life, enduring for ever.
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 through thine aid; Honor and majesty hast thou laid upon him.
6 Ua hoopomaikai io mau loa oe ia ia; Ua hoohauoli loa oe ia ia i kou maka.
Thou hast made him blessed for evermore; Thou hast made him glad with the joy of thy 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 trusteth in the LORD; And through the goodness of the Most High he shall never fall.
8 E loaa no i kou lima kou mau enemi a pau; E loaa no i kou lima akau ka poe inaina ia oe.
Thy hand shall overtake all thine enemies; Thy right hand shall overtake them that hate thee.
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.
Thou wilt make them like a burning oven in the time of thine anger; Jehovah shall swallow them up in his wrath, And the fire shall devour 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.
Their offspring shalt thou destroy from the earth, And their posterity 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 spread a net of mischief against thee; They devised plots against thee, but they did 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.
Therefore thou wilt cause them to turn their backs; Thou wilt make ready thine arrows upon the strings against them.
13 E hapaiia'ku oe, e Iehova, i kou ikaika; E oli no hoi makou me ka hoolea aku i kou mana.
Exalt thyself, O LORD! by thy strength! So will we sing, and praise thy mighty deeds.
