Halelu 45
1 KE hoohu mai nei ko'u naau i ke mele maikai; Ke hai aku nei au i na mea a'u i hana'i no ke Alii; O ko'u alelo ka peni a me ka mea kakau wikiwiki.
My heart overflows with a good matter. I speak the things which I have made concerning the king. My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
2 Ua oi kou nani mamua o na keiki a kanaka: Ua nininiia ka maikai iloko o kou mau lehelehe; Nolaila, ua hoomaikai mau loa ke Akua ia oe.
Thou are fairer than the sons of men. Grace is poured into thy lips. Therefore God has blessed thee forever.
3 E kaei oe i kau pahikaua ma kou uha, e ka Mea mana, Me kou nani a me kou hanohano.
Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one, thy glory and thy majesty.
4 A iloko o kou hanohano e holokaa pomaikai ai, No ka oiaio a me ke akahai, a me ka pono; A a ao iho kou lima akau ia oe i na mea weliweli
And in thy majesty ride on prosperously because of truth and gentleness and righteousness. And thy right hand shall teach thee awesome things.
5 Ua oi aku kou mau pua iloko o ka naau o ko ke alii poe enemi; Hina iho na kanaka malalo iho ou.
Thine arrows are sharp. The peoples fall under thee. They are in the heart of the king's enemies.
6 O kou nohoalii, e ke Akua, e mau loa ana no ia: O ka hoailonamoi o kou aupuni. he hoailonamoi pono no ia.
Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever. A scepter of straightness is the scepter of thy kingdom.
7 Makemake no oe i ka pono, A hoowahawaha no oe i ka hewa: Nolaila ke Akua, kou Akua i poni ai ia oe, Ma ka aila olioli maluna o kou mau hoa.
Thou have loved righteousness, and hated wickedness. Therefore God, thy God, has anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy companions.
8 Ke aala pu mai nei kou mau kapa a pau i ka mura, a me ka aloe, a me ke kasia; Noloko mai o na halealii nihoelepani i hoohauoli ai lakou ia oe.
All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia. Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee glad.
9 O na kaikamahine a na'lii kekahi iwaena o kou mau wahine hanohano; Ma kou lima akau i ku mai ai ke alii wahine me ke gula noopira.
Kings' daughters are among thy honorable women. At thy right hand stands the queen in gold of Ophir.
10 E hoolohe mai, e ke kaikamahine, a e hoomanao, A e haliu mai i kou pepeiao; E hoopoina hoi i kou poe kanaka, a me ka hale o kou makuakane;
Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear. Forget also thine own people, and thy father's house.
11 Pela hoi, e makemake nui ai ke alii i kou nani: No ka mea, oia kou Haku; E hoomana aku hoi oe ia ia.
So will the king desire thy beauty, for he is thy lord, and reverence thou him.
12 O ke kaikamahine o Turo me ka makana; A o ka poe waiwai o na kanaka e imi i ka hooluolu ia oe.
And the daughter of Tyre shall adore him with a gift. The rich among the people shall entreat thy favor.
13 He nani loa maloko ke kaikamahine a ke alii; O kona kapa he gula i ulanaia no ia.
Inside, the king's daughter is all glorious. Her clothing is embroidered with gold.
14 E laweia mai oia i ke alii iloko o na kapa hoonionioia; O na kaikamahine kona mau hoanoho, e hahai ana mamuli ona, E lawe pu ia mai lakou ia oe.
She shall be led to the king in broidered work. The virgins, her companions who follow her, shall be brought to thee.
15 Me ka olioli, a me ka hauoli ana e laweia mai lakou: E komo no hoi lakou iloko o ko ke alii halealii:
With gladness and rejoicing they shall be led. They shall enter into the king's palace.
16 Ma ka hakahaka o kou mau makua, malaila auanei kau mau keiki, Au e hoolilo ai i alii ma ka honua a pau.
Instead of thy fathers shall be thy sons, whom thou shall make rulers in all the earth.
17 E hoomaikai mau aku au i kou inoa i na hanauna a pau; Nolaila e hoolea na kanaka ia oe a mau loa.
I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations. Therefore the peoples shall give thee thanks forever and ever.
