Halelu 32
1 POMAIKAI ka mea i kalaia kona hala, I uhiia hoi koua hewa.
Of David. A maskil. Happy those whose transgression is pardoned, whose sin is covered.
2 Pomaikai ke kanaka, maluna ona ka hoili ole ia o ka hewa e Iehova. Iloko hoi o kona uhane aohe hookamani.
Happy are those, free from falseness of spirit, to whom the Lord reckons no debt of guilt.
3 I ko'u mumule ana ua elemakule ae la kuu mau iwi, I kuu auwe ana a po ka la.
When I held my peace, my bones wore away with my endless groaning;
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 did your hand lie heavy upon me. The sap of my life was dried up as with fierce summer-heat. (Selah)
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 began to acknowledge my sin, not concealing my guilt; and the moment I vowed to confess to the Lord my transgression, then you yourself did pardon the guilt of my sin. (Selah)
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.
For this cause let all who are faithful pray to you in the time of distress; then, when the great waters rush, they will not reach 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)
For you are my shelter, you protect me from trouble, and surround me with deliverance. (Selah)
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.
“With my eye steadfastly upon you, I will instruct and teach you The way you should go.
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.
Do not be like the horse or the mule, that have no understanding, but need bridle and halter to curb them, else they will not come near to you.”
10 E nui auanei ka ehaeha o ka mea hewa; Aka, o ka mea hilinai ia Iehova. e hoopuniia no ia me ke aloha.
The godless have many sorrows, but those who trust in the Lord will be compassed about by his kindness.
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 rejoice, you righteous; and ring out your joy, all you upright in heart.
