Halelu 32
1 POMAIKAI ka mea i kalaia kona hala, I uhiia hoi koua hewa.
[A Psalm] of instruction by David. Blessed [are they] whose transgressions are forgiven, and who sins are covered.
2 Pomaikai ke kanaka, maluna ona ka hoili ole ia o ka hewa e Iehova. Iloko hoi o kona uhane aohe hookamani.
Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin, and whose mouth there is no guile.
3 I ko'u mumule ana ua elemakule ae la kuu mau iwi, I kuu auwe ana a po ka la.
Because I kept silence, my bones waxed old, from my crying all the day.
4 No ka mea, i ke ao a me ka po, kaumaha mai la kou lima maluna iho o'u: Ua hooliloia ko'u ma-u ana i maloo o ka makalii. (Sila)
For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: I became thoroughly miserable while a thorn was fastened in [me]. (Pause)
5 Ua hai aku au i ko'u hewa ia oe; Aole au i huna i ko'u lawehala ana. I iho la an, E hai aku au i ko'u hala ia Iehova; A ua kala mai oe i ka hewa o ka'u lawehala ana. (Sila)
I acknowledged my sin, and hid not mine iniquity: I said, I will confess mine iniquity to the Lord against myself; and thou forgavest the ungodliness of my heart. (Pause)
6 No ia mea, e pule aku ia oe na haipule i ka wa e loaa ai oe; Oiaio, i ke kahe aua o na wai nui, aole ia e kokoke ia ia.
Therefore shall every holy one pray to thee in a fit time: only in the deluge of many waters they shall not come nigh to him.
7 O oe no kuu wahi e pee ai; E hoopakele no oe ia'u i ka popilikia: E hoopuni no oe ia'u me na mele no ke ola. (Sila)
Thou art my refuge from the affliction that encompasses me; my joy, to deliver me from them that have compassed me. (Pause)
8 E ao aku au ia oe, a hoike ia oe i kou ala e hele ai; E alakai au ia oe me ko'u maka.
I will instruct thee and guide thee in this way wherein thou shalt go: I will fix mine eyes upon thee.
9 Mai hoohalike oukou me ka lio a me ka hoki, na mea ike ole; E pono ke kaohiia kona waha me ka haowaha, a me ke kaula waha, o hele kokoke ia ia oe.
Be ye not as horse and mule, which have no understanding; [but thou must] constrain their jaws with bit and curb, lest they should come nigh to thee.
10 E nui auanei ka ehaeha o ka mea hewa; Aka, o ka mea hilinai ia Iehova. e hoopuniia no ia me ke aloha.
Many are the scourges of the sinner: but him that hopes in the Lord mercy shall compass about.
11 E olioli ia Iehova, a e hauoli, e ka poe pono: E hooho no ka hauoli, e ka poe a pau i kupono ka naau.
Be glad in the Lord, and exult, ye righteous: and glory, all ye that are upright in heart.
