Halelu 31
1 KE hilinai aku nei au ia oe, e Iehova, aole loa au o hoka; Ma kou pono e hoola mai oe ia'u.
Unto the end, a psalm for David, in an ecstasy. In thee, O Lord, have I hoped, let me never be confounded: deliver me in thy justice.
2 E haliu mai kou pepeiao ia'u, e hoola koke mai ia'u; E lilo oe i pohaku paa no'u, i hale e malu ai e ola'i au.
Bow down thy ear to me: make haste to deliver me. Be thou unto me a God, a protector, and a house of refuge, to save me.
3 No ka mea, o oe no ko'u pohaku a me kuu pakaua; Nolaila, no kou inoa e alakai oe ia'u, a e malama mai ia'u.
For thou art my strength and my refuge; and for thy name’s sake thou wilt lead me, and nourish me.
4 E kaili oe ia'u mailoko o ka upena a lakou i waiho malu ai no'u; No ka mea, o oe no ko'u ikaika.
Thou wilt bring me out of this snare, which they have hidden for me: for thou art my protector.
5 Ke haawi aku nei au i kuu uhane iloko o kou lima; Ua hoopakele mai oe ia'u, e Iehova ke Akua oiaio.
Into thy hands I commend my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord, the God of truth.
6 Ua hoowahawaha au i ka poe manao ma na mea lapuwale hoopunipuni; Aka, ke hilinai aku nei au ia Iehova.
Thou hast hated them that regard vanities, to no purpose. But I have hoped in the Lord:
7 E olioli au, a e hauoli hoi i kou aloha; No ka mea, ua manao mai oe i kuu kaumaha; Ua ike hoi oe i ko'u uhane iloko o ka popilikia;
I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy. For thou best regarded my humility, thou hast saved my soul out of distresses.
8 Aole oe i hoopaa ia'u iloko o ka lima o ka enemi; Ua hooku oe i kuu mau wawae ma kahi akea.
And thou hast not shut me up in the hands of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a spacious place.
9 E aloha mai oe ia'u, e Iehova, no ka mea, ua pilikia au: Ua pau e kuu maka i ke kaumaha, a me kuu uhane a me kuu opu.
Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: my eye is troubled with wrath, my soul, and my belly:
10 No ka mea, ua pau kuu ola nei i ke kaumaha, A me kuu mau makahiki i ka u ana: Ua pau e kuu ikaika no kuu hewa, Ua pauhia hoi ko'u mau iwi.
For my life is wasted with grief: and my years in sighs. My strength is weakened through poverty and my bones are disturbed.
11 Lilo aku la au i mea hoinoia iwaena o ko'u poe enemi a pau, He mea hoino nui ia iwaena o ko'u mau hoauoho, He mea weliweli no hoi no ko'u mau hoalauna: O ka poe ike mai ia'u mawaho, holo aka lakou mai o'u aku nei.
I am become a reproach among all my enemies, and very much to my neighbours; and a fear to my acquaintance. They that saw me without fled from me.
12 Ua poina hoi au me he kanaka make la i nalo iho: Ua like no hoi au me ka ipu nahaha.
I am forgotten as one dead from the heart. I am become as a vessel that is destroyed.
13 No ka mea, ua lohe no au i ka hoino ana o na mea he nui: He makau no ma na aoao a puni; I ka wa i ohumu ku e mai ai lakou ia'u, Kukakuka lakou e kaili wale aku i kuu ola,
For I have heard the blame of many that dwell round about. While they assembled together against me, they consulted to take away my life.
14 Aka, i hilinai aku au ia oe, e Iehova; I aku la au, o oe no ko'u Akua.
But I have put my trust in thee, O Lord: I said: Thou art my God.
15 Aia no i kou lima kuu mau manawa; E hoopakele oe ia'u i ka lima o ko'u poe enemi, A me ka poe alualu hewa mai ia'u.
My lots are in thy hands. Deliver me out of the hands of my enemies; and from them that persecute me.
16 E hoomalamalama mai kou maka i kau kauwa nei: E hoola mai oe ia'u no ko'u aloha.
Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; save me in thy mercy.
17 E Iehova, aole au e hoka, No ka mea, ua kahea aku au ia oe: E hoka ka poe hewa, A e waiho leo ole lakou iloko o ka luakupapau. (Sheol h7585)
Let me not be confounded, O Lord, for I have called upon thee. Let the wicked be ashamed, and be brought down to hell. (Sheol h7585)
18 E hoopaaia na lehelehe hoopunipuni; Na mea olelo hookano me ka haakei, I na mea kaumaha i ku e i ka mea pono.
Let deceitful lips be made dumb. Which speak iniquity against the just, with pride and abuse.
19 Nani ka mea maikai au i hoahu ai no ka poe weliweli ia oe; Au i hana'i hoi no ka poe hilinai ia oe imua o na keiki a kanaka!
O how great is the multitude of thy sweetness, O Lord, which thou hast hidden for them that fear thee! Which thou hast wrought for them that hope in thee, in the sight of the sons of men.
20 E huna oe ia lakou ma kahi malu o kou alo mai ka ohumu ana o kanaka; E malama malu oe ia lakou maloko o ka halelewa mai ka paio ana o na elelo.
Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy face, from the disturbance of men. Thou shalt protect them in thy tabernacle from the contradiction of tongues.
21 E hoomaikaiia'ku o Iehova: No ka mea, ua hookupanaha oia i kona aloha ia'u iloko o ke kulanakauhale paa.
Blessed be the Lord, for he hath shewn his wonderful mercy to me in a fortified city.
22 A i kuu wikiwiki, i iho la an, Ua okiia'e no au mai mua'e o kou mau maka; Aka, ua hoolohe mai no hoi oe i ka leo o ka'u pule ana, I kuu kahea ana'ku ia oe.
But I said in the excess of my mind: I am cast away from before thy eyes. Therefore thou hast heard the voice of my prayer, when I cried to thee.
23 E aloha aku ia Iehova, e kona poe haipule a pau; No ka mea, ua malama mai o Iehova i ka poe hoopono, A ua uku nui mai no ia i ka mea hana hookano.
O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord will require truth, and will repay them abundantly that act proudly.
24 E hoolana oukou, a e hooikaika mai oia i ko oukou naau, E ka poe a pau e hilinai ana ia Iehova.
Do ye manfully, and let your heart be strengthened, all ye that hope in the Lord.
