Halelu 4
1 I KA'U uolo ana'ku e lohe mai ia'u, e ke Akua o'u e pono ai: Ua hoakea mai oe ia'u i ko'u popilikia; E aloha mai oe ia'u, e hoolohe mai hoi i ka'u pule.
Unto the end, in verses. A psalm for David. When I called upon him, the God of my justice heard me: when I was in distress, thou hast enlarged me. Have mercy on me: and hear my prayer.
2 E na keiki a kanaka, pehea la ka loihi O ko oukou hoolilo ana i ko'u nani i me a hilahila? No ke aha la e aloha ai oukou i ka lapuwale, A imi hoi i wahahee? (Sila)
O ye sons of men, how long will you be dull of heart? why do you love vanity, and seek after lying?
3 E ike hoi oukou na hoana e o Iehova i ka mea haipulo nona; E lohe mai no o Iehova i ko'u kahea ana'ku ia ia.
Know ye also that the Lord hath made his holy one wonderful: the Lord will hear me when I shall cry unto him.
4 E haalulu oukou, mai hana hewa; E kukakuka me ko oukou naau iho, Ma ko oukou wahi moe e noho malie ai. (Sila)
Be angry, and sin not: the things you say in your hearts, be sorry for them upon your beds.
5 E kaumaha aku oukou i ka mohai pono, E lelepau ko oukou manao ia Iehova.
Offer up the sacrifice of justice, and trust in the Lord: many say, Who sheweth us good things?
6 He nui no ka poe i olelo mai, Owai ka mea o hoike mai i ka pono ia kakou? E Iehova, e hoomalamalama mai kou maka ia makou.
The light of thy countenance O Lord, is signed upon us: thou hast given gladness in my heart.
7 Ua hookomo mai oe i ka olioli iloko o ko'u naau, A oi aku ko'u i ko lakou i ka mahuahua ana'e o ka palaoa a me ka waina.
By the fruit of their corn, their wine and oil, they are multiplied.
8 E moe au ilalo me ka maluhia, a hiamoe: No ka mea, o oe wale no, e Iehova, ka i hoomalu mai i ko'u noho ana.
In peace in the selfsame I will sleep, and I will rest: For thou, O Lord, singularly hast settled me in hope.
