< Halelu 26 >

1 E HOOPONO mai oe ia'u, e Iehova, no ka mea, ua hele au me ko'u pono: Ua hilinai au ia Iehova, aole au e pahee.
Unto the end, a psalm for David. Judge me, O Lord, for I have walked in my innocence: and I have put my trust in the Lord, and shall not be weakened.
2 E huli oe ia'u, e Iehova, a e hoike ia'u; E hoao mai oe i kuu puupaa a me kuu naau.
Prove me, O Lord, and try me; burn my reins and my heart.
3 No ka mea, imua o ko'u mau maka kou lokomaikai; A ma kau olelo oiaio i hele ai au.
For thy mercy is before my eyes; and I am well pleased with thy truth.
4 Aole au i noho pu me ka poe hookano; Aole hoi e komo pu me ka poe hookamani wale.
I have not sat with the council of vanity: neither will I go in with the doers of unjust things.
5 Ua hoowahawaha au i ke anaina o ka poe hana ino; Aole hoi e noho pu au me ka poe hewa.
I have hated the assembly of the malignant; and with the wicked I will not sit.
6 E holoi au i kuu mau lima me ka hala ole; Pela hoi au e hoopuni ai i kou kuahu, e Iehova;
I will wash my hands among the innocent; and will compass thy altar, O Lord:
7 E hoike aku au me ka leo hoomaikai, A e hai aku hoi i kau mau hana kupaianaha a pau.
That I may hear the voice of thy praise: and tell of all thy wondrous works.
8 E Iehova, ua makemake au i ka noho ana o kou hale, A me ka wahi e noho ai kou nani.
I have loved, O Lord, the beauty of thy house; and the place where thy glory dwelleth.
9 Mai houluulu oe i ko'u uhane me ka poe hewa; Aole hoi i kuu ola me na kanaka koko:
Take not away my soul, O God, with the wicked: nor my life with bloody men:
10 Maloko o ko lakou mau lima ke kolohe; A ua piha i na kipe ko lakou mau lima akau.
In whose hands are iniquities: their right hand is filled with gifts.
11 A owau nei la, e hele au me kuu pono; E hoola mai oe ia'u, a e aloha mai ia'u.
But as for me, I have walked in my innocence: redeem me, and have mercy on me.
12 Ke ku nei kuu wawae ma kahi maniania; Maloko o na anaina e hoomaikai aku ai au ia Iehova.
My foot hath stood in the direct way: in the churches I will bless thee, O Lord.
