Halelu 21

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

For the chief musician. A psalm of David. The king rejoices in your strength, Yahweh! How greatly he rejoices in the salvation you provide!

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 have given him his heart's desire and have not held back 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 bring him rich blessings; you placed on his head a crown of purest gold.

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 you for life; you gave it to him; you gave him long days forever and 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.

His glory is great because of your victory; you have bestowed on him splendor and majesty.

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

For you grant him lasting blessings; you make him glad with the joy of your presence.

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 trusts in Yahweh; through the covenant faithfulness of the Most High he will not be 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 will seize all your enemies; your right hand will seize those who hate you.

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.

At the time of your anger, you will burn them up as in a fiery furnace. Yahweh will consume them in his wrath, and the fire will 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.

You will destroy their offspring from the earth and their descendants from among the human race.

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

For they intended evil against you; they conceived a plot with which they will not succeed!

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 will turn them back; you will draw your bow before them.

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

Be exalted, Yahweh, in your strength; we will sing and praise your power.
