Halelu 41

1 POMAIKAI ke kanaka i manao i ka popilikia: E hoakea mai o Iehova ia ia i ka wa ino.

To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. Blessed is he that iudgeth wisely of the poore: the Lord shall deliuer him in ye time of trouble.

2 E hoomalu mai o Iehova a e hoomau i kona ola; A e hoopomaikaiia no ia maluna o ka honua; Aole hoi oe e haawi ia ia i ka makemake o kona poe enemi.

The Lord will keepe him, and preserue him aliue: he shalbe blessed vpon the earth, and thou wilt not deliuer him vnto the will of his enemies.

3 E hooikaika mai no hoi o Iehova ia ia maluna o kahi moe e nawaliwali ai: E pau no hoi ia oe kona moena i ka koomakaukauia i kona mai ana.

The Lord wil strengthen him vpon ye bed of sorow: thou hast turned al his bed in his sicknes.

4 I aku la au, E Iehova, e aloha mai ia'u; E hoola i kuu uhane, no ka mea, ua hana hewa aku au ia oe.

Therefore I saide, Lord haue mercie vpon me: heale my soule, for I haue sinned against thee.

5 Ke olelo hewa nei ko'u poe enemi no'u; Ahea la e make ia, a e lilo kona inoa?

Mine enemies speake euill of me, saying, When shall he die, and his name perish?

6 Ina i hele mai ia e ike mai, Ua olelo no ia ma ka lapuwale; Houluulu hoi kona naau i ka hewa nona iho; A puka ia iwaho, hai aku la no ia.

And if hee come to see mee, hee speaketh lies, but his heart heapeth iniquitie within him, and when he commeth foorth, he telleth it.

7 Hawanawana ku e pu mai ia'u na mea a pau i inaina mai ia'u; Kukakuka ku e mai lakou i ka hewa no'u.

All they that hate me, whisper together against me: euen against me do they imagine mine hurt.

8 He mea ino ka i pili loa ia ia: A ke moe ia ia, aole e ala hou ae.

A mischiefe is light vpon him, and he that lyeth, shall no more rise.

9 Oiaio, o ko'u hoaaloha a'u i hilinai aku ai, Ka mea i ai i ka'u berena, Oia ka i hapai ku e i kona kuekue wawae ia'u.

Yea, my familiar friend, whom I trusted, which did eate of my bread, hath lifted vp the heele against me.

10 Aka, e aloha mai oe, e Iehova, ia'u; E hooku hou ia'u iluna e uku aku au ia lakou.

Therefore, O Lord, haue mercy vpon mee, and raise me vp: so I shall reward them.

11 Ma keia mea i ike ai au i kou lokomaikai ana mai ia'u: No ka mea, aole i hooho olioli ko'u enemi maluna o'u.

By this I know that thou fauourest me, because mine enemie doth not triumph against me.

12 A owau nei la, ke hooku paa nei oe ia'u i ko'u pono, Ke hoonoho mau ia'u imua o ko'u alo.

And as for me, thou vpholdest me in mine integritie, and doest set me before thy face for euer.

13 E hoomaikai mau ia'ku o Iehova ke Akua o Iseraela, Mai ke ao kumu ole, a i ke ao pau ole. Amene, Amene.

Blessed be the Lord God of Israel worlde without ende. So be it, euen so be it.
