Halelu 42
1 E LIKE me ka dia e makemake ana i ka wai kahe, Pela e makemake nei ko'u uhane ia oe, e ke Akua.
Unto the end, understanding for the sons of Core. As the hart panteth after the fountains of water; so my soul panteth after thee, O God.
2 Ke makewai nei ko'u uhane i ke Akua, i ke Akua ola; Ahea la hiki aku au, a ikeia mai imua o ke Akua?
My soul hath thirsted after the strong living God; when shall I come and appear before the face of God?
3 Ua lilo ko'u mau waimaka i ai na'u i ke ao a me ka po, Ia lakou i olelo mau mai ai ia'u, Auhea kou Akua?
My tears have been any bread day and night, whilst it is said to me daily: Where is thy God?
4 A hoomanao aku au ia mau mea, ninini iho au i ko'u uhane iloko o'u: No ka mea, ua hele au me ka lehulehu, Hele pu no wau me lakou i ka hale o ke Akua, Me ka leo o ka olioli, a me ka hoolea, Me ke anaina malama i ka ahaaina.
These things I remembered, and poured out my soul in me: for I shall go over into the place of the wonderful tabernacle, even to the house of God: With the voice of joy and praise; the noise of one feasting.
5 No ke aha la oe e hoohaahaaia, e kuu uhane? No ke aha la oe i paumako ai iloko o'u? E manao laua aku oe i ke Akua; No ka mea, e hoolea auanei au ia ia, No ke kokua ana mai o kona maka.
Why art thou sad, O my soul? and why dost thou trouble me? Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him: the salvation of my countenance,
6 E ko'u Akua, ua hoohaahaa ko'u uhane iloko o'u: Nolaila e hoomanao aku ai au ia oe ma ka aina Ioredane, A ma na Heremona a me ka mauna Mizara.
And my God. My soul is troubled within myself: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan and Hermoniim, from the little hill.
7 Ke kahea nei kekahi hohonu i kekahi hohonu, I ka halulu mau ana o kou waipuilani; Ua popoi mai na ale me na nalu maluna'e o'u.
Deep calleth on deep, at the noise of thy flood-gates. All thy heights and thy billows have passed over me.
8 Aka, i ke ao e kauoha mai o Iehova i kona lokomaikai, A i ka po, eia auanei me au ka mele nona, A me ka'u pule i ke Akua o ko'u ola nei.
In the daytime the Lord hath commanded his mercy; and a canticle to him in the night. With me is prayer to the God of my life.
9 E olelo aku au i ke Akua i ko'u Pohaku, No ke aha la oe e hoopoina mai ai ia'u? No ke aha la e u hele ai au no ka hooluhihewa ana mai o ka enemi?
I will say to God: Thou art my support. Why hast thou forgotten me? and why go I mourning, whilst my enemy afflicteth me?
10 Me he pahikaua la iloko o ko'u mau iwi, Ke hoino mai nei ko'u poe enemi ia'u; I ka lakou olelo ana mai ia'u i kela la i keia la, Auhea la kou Akua.
Whilst my bones are broken, my enemies who trouble me have reproached me; Whilst they say to me day be day: Where is thy God?
11 No ke aha la oe i hooliaahaaia'i, e ko'u uhane? No ke aha la oe i paumako ai iloko o'u? E hoolana i ka manao i ke Akua; No ka mea, e hoolea auanei au ia ia; Oia ke ola o ko'u maka, a me kuu Akua.
Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why dost thou disquiet me? Hope thou in God, for I will still give praise to him: the salvation of my countenance, and my God.
