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.
“BOOK II. For the leader of the music. A song of the sons of Korah.” As the hart panteth for the water-brooks, So panteth my soul for 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 thirsteth for God, the living God: When shall I come, and appear before 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 my food day and night, While they say to me continually, “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.
When I think of it, I pour out my soul in grief; How I once walked with the multitude, Walked slowly with them to the house of God, Amid sounds of joy and praise with the festive multitude!
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 cast down, O my soul? And why art thou disquieted within me? Hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise him, Him, my deliverer and my God!
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.
My soul is cast down within me, While I remember thee from the land of Jordan and Hermon, From the mountain Mizar.
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 for deep at the noise of thy waterfalls; All thy waves and billows have gone 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.
Once the LORD commanded his kindness by day, And by night his praise was with me, -Thanksgiving 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?
Now I say to God, my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? Why go I mourning on account of the oppression of the enemy?
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.
Like the crushing of my bones are the reproaches of the enemy, While they say to me continually, “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 art thou disquieted within me? Hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise him, Him, my deliverer and my God!
