Halelu 22
1 E KO'U Akua, e ko'u Akua, no ke aha la oe i haalele mai ia'u? A i ole ai e kokua iki mai ia'u i ka leo o ko'u ulono ana?
For the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Doe of the Dawn.” A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? Why are You so far from saving me, so far from my words of groaning?
2 E ko'u Akua e, ua kahea au i ke ao, aole nae oe i lohe mai; A i ka po hoi, aole i hoomaha iki.
I cry out by day, O my God, but You do not answer, and by night, but I have no rest.
3 Aka, o oe ka mea hemolele, E noho ana iloko o ka Iseraela hoolea ana.
Yet You are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel.
4 Ua hilinai aku ko makou mau makua ia oe; Ua manaoio lakou, a nau no lakou i hoola
In You our fathers trusted; they trusted and You delivered them.
5 Ua kahea lakou ia oe, a ua hoolaia no hoi; Ua paulele lakou ia oe, aole hoi lakou i hoka,
They cried out to You and were set free; they trusted in You and were not disappointed.
6 Aka, he enuhe au, aole he kanaka; He mea hoinoia e ko ke ao nei, A i hoowahawahaia e na kanaka.
But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by men and despised by the people.
7 Ua hoomauakala mai ka poe a pau ke ike mai ia'u; Ua hooioi mai lakou i ka lehelehe me ka hooluli i ke poo,
All who see me mock me; they sneer and shake their heads:
8 I iho la, ua paulele aku la oia ia Iehova i ola oia ia ia, Nana no ia e hoola ke olioli mai oia ia ia.
“He trusts in the LORD, let the LORD deliver him; let the LORD rescue him, since He delights in him.”
9 Nau no wau i hookaawale mai ka opu mai; Ua hoolana oe i ko'u manao ma na u o ko'u makuwahine.
Yet You brought me forth from the womb; You made me secure at my mother’s breast.
10 Ua waihoia'ku au maluna ou mai ka opu mai; Mai ka opu mai o ko'u makuwahine, o oe no ko'u Akua.
From birth I was cast upon You; from my mother’s womb You have been my God.
11 Mai hoomamao aku oe ia'u, ke kokoke mai nei ka popilikia; Aohe mea nana e kokua mai.
Be not far from me, for trouble is near and there is no one to help.
12 He nui na bipi kane i hoopuni mai ia'u; Ua puni au i na mea ikaika no Basana.
Many bulls surround me; strong bulls of Bashan encircle me.
13 Ua hamama mai la ko lakou mau waha ia'u E like me ka liona hae e uwo ana.
They open their jaws against me like lions that roar and maul.
14 Ua nininiia'ku au me he wai la, Ua pau ko'u mau iwi i ka haihai; Ua like ko'u puuwai me he pilali la: Ua hooheeia ia iwaena konu o ko'u mau naau.
I am poured out like water, and all my bones are disjointed. My heart is like wax; it melts away within me.
15 Ua pau ko'u ikaika i ka maloo me he apana ipu lepo la; Ua pipili ko'u alelo i ko'u mau a; Ua hookomo oe ia'u iloko o ka lepo o ka make.
My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. You lay me in the dust of death.
16 Ua hoopuni mai na ilio ia'u; Ua poaiia mai au e ke anaina kanaka hewa; Ua o mai lakou i ko'u mau lima a me ko'u mau wawae.
For dogs surround me; a band of evil men encircles me; they have pierced my hands and feet.
17 E hiki no ia'u ke helu i ko'u mau iwi a pau; Ua haka mai lakou ia'u me ka makahahi.
I can count all my bones; they stare and gloat over me.
18 Ua puunaue lakou i ko'u mau kapa no lakou; A o ko'u aahu ka lakou i hailona ai.
They divide my garments among them and cast lots for my clothing.
19 Aka, mai hoomamao aku oe ia'u, e Iehova; E ko'u Ikaika, e papaana mai oe e kokua mai ia'u.
But You, O LORD, be not far off; O my Strength, come quickly to help me.
20 E hoopakele oe i ko'u uhane i ka pahikaua, I ko'u makamae hoi i ka lima o ka ilio.
Deliver my soul from the sword, my precious life from the power of wild dogs.
21 E hoola mai oe ia'u i ka waha o ka liona; Ua lohe mai oe ia'u ma na hao o na reema.
Save me from the mouth of the lion; at the horns of the wild oxen You have answered me!
22 E hai aku no wau i kou inoa i ko'u mau hoahanau; E hoolea hoi au ia oe mawaena o ke anaina kanaka.
I will proclaim Your name to my brothers; I will praise You in the assembly.
23 E ka poe makau ia Iehova, e hoolea oukou ia ia; E hoonani oukou ia ia, e na pua a pau a Iakoba; E hoomana imua ona, e na mamo a pau a Iseraela.
You who fear the LORD, praise Him! All descendants of Jacob, honor Him! All offspring of Israel, revere Him!
24 No ka mea, aole ia i hoowahawaha, aole hoi i hoaikola i ka poino o ka mea i hooluhiia; Aole ia i huna aku i kona maka ia ia; Aka, i kona kahea ana aku ia ia, ua hoolohe mai no ia.
For He has not despised or detested the torment of the afflicted. He has not hidden His face from him, but has attended to his cry for help.
25 Ia oe ko'u hoolea ana iwaena o ke anaina nui; E hooko aku au i ka'u i hoohiki ai, imua o ka poe weliweli ia ia.
My praise for You resounds in the great assembly; I will fulfill my vows before those who fear You.
26 E ai no ka poe akahai a maona: E hoolea aku no ia Iehova ka poe e imi ia ia; E ola mau loa ko oukou naau.
The poor will eat and be satisfied; those who seek the LORD will praise Him. May your hearts live forever!
27 E hoomanao iho, a e huli mai no ia Iehova, na welelau a pau o ka honua; E pau no na ohana o na lahuikanaka i ka hoomana imua ou:
All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the LORD. All the families of the nations will bow down before Him.
28 No ka mea, no Iehova ke aupuni; Oia hoi ke Alii iwaena o na lahuikanaka.
For dominion belongs to the LORD and He rules over the nations.
29 E ai no me ka hoomana ka poe waiwai a pau ma ka honua: O ka poe a pau e iho ana i ka lepo, e kulou lakou imua ona: Aohe mea e hoola i kona uhane iho.
All the rich of the earth will feast and worship; all who go down to the dust will kneel before Him— even those unable to preserve their lives.
30 E malama no kekahi mau mamo ia ia; E kapaia lakou he hanauna no ka Haku.
Posterity will serve Him; they will declare the Lord to a new generation.
31 E hele mai no lakou, e hai ana i kona pono I ka lahuikanaka e hanau ana, oia kana i hana'i.
They will come and proclaim His righteousness to a people yet unborn— all that He has done.
