Halelu 47

1 E PAIPAI i ko oukou mau lima, e na lahuikanaka a pau; E hooho i ke Akua me ka leo olioli.

You people all [over the world], clap your hands for joy! Shout joyfully to [praise] God!

2 No ka mea, he mea e weliweli ai o Iehova ka mea kiekie loa: He Alii nui ia maluna o ka honua a pau.

Yahweh, who is much greater than any other god, is awesome; he is the king who rules over all the world!

3 E hoohaahaa iho oia i ka poe kanaka malalo iho o kakou, A me na lahuikanaka malalo iho o ko kakou mau kapuwai.

He enabled us to defeat [the armies of] the people-groups [that lived in Canaan].

4 E koho mai no hoi oia i hooilina no kakou, I ka nani o Iakoba ana i aloha mai ai. (Sila)

He chose for us this land where we now live; we Israeli people [MTY], whom he loves, are proud that we own this land.

5 Ua pii ae nei ke Akua me ka hooho, O Iehova me ke kani ana o ka pu.

God has gone up [into his temple]. The people shouted joyfully and blew trumpets as Yahweh went up.

6 E hoolea aku i ke Akua, e hoolea oukou: E hoolea aku i ko kakou Alii, e hoolea oukou.

Sing songs to praise our God! Sing to praise him [DOU]! Sing to God, our king!

7 No ka mea, o ke Akua ke Alii o ka honua a pau; E hoolea aku oukou me ka naauao.

God is the one who rules over everything in the world; sing a psalm to him!

8 E alii ana no hoi ke Akua maluna o na lahuikanaka; Ke nobo mai la ke Akua maluna o kona nohoalii hoano.

God sits on his sacred throne as he rules over the people of [all] ethnic groups.

9 Ua akoakoa na'lii o na kanaka, O na kanaka o ke Akua no Aberahama; No ke Akua na palekaua o ka honua; Ua hapai nui ia'ku no hoi ia.

The rulers of those people-groups gather as God’s people, the people [descended] from Abraham, [do]. But God has more power than the weapons/shields [of all the kings] on the earth; (he is greatly honored/people honor him) everywhere.
