Halelu 52
1 NO ke aha la e hoonui ai oe ma ka hewa, e ke kanaka ikaika? E mau loa ana no ka lokomaikai o ke Akua.
To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid to giue instruction. When Doeg the Edomite came and shewed Saul, and saide to him, Dauid is come to the house of Abimelech. Why boastest thou thy selfe in thy wickednesse, O man of power? the louing kindenesse of God indureth dayly.
2 Ua hoomakaukau kou alelo i na mea hewa; Me he pahi umiumi la, e hana malu ana.
Thy tongue imagineth mischiefe, and is like a sharpe rasor, that cutteth deceitfully.
3 Makemake no oe i ka ino, aole i ka maikai; A i ka hoopunipuni ana hoi, aole i ka olelo i ka pono. (Sila)
Thou doest loue euill more then good, and lies more then to speake the trueth. (Selah)
4 Makemake no oe i na olelo a pau e pau ai, E ke alelo kumakaia.
Thou louest all wordes that may destroye, O deceitfull tongue!
5 E hoohiolo mai no hoi ke Akua ia oe a mau loa, E kiola aku oia ia oe, a kaili aku mai loko aku o kou wahi i noho ai, A e uhuki ae hoi oia ia oe mailoko ae o ka aina o ka poe ola. (Sila)
So shall God destroy thee for euer: he shall take thee and plucke thee out of thy tabernacle, and roote thee out of ye land of the liuing. (Selah)
6 E ike no hoi ka poe pono, a e weliweli, A e akaaka lakou ia ia.
The righteous also shall see it, and feare, and shall laugh at him, saying,
7 Aia hoi, oia ke kanaka i lawe ole i ke Akua i ikaika nona; Aka, ua hilinai i ka nui o kona waiwai iho, A ua hooikaika ia ia iho iloko o kona hewa.
Beholde the man that tooke not God for his strength, but trusted vnto the multitude of his riches, and put his strength in his malice.
8 Aka, he mea like au me ka laauoliva uliuli iloko a ka hale o ke Akua; E hilinai mau aku wau i ke aloha o ke Akua a mau loa aku.
But I shall bee like a greene oliue tree in the house of God: for I trusted in the mercie of God for euer and euer.
9 E hoolea mau loa aku au ia oe, No ka mea, nau no ia i hana; E hilinai hoi au i kou inoa; No ka mea, he pono ia imua o kou poe haipule.
I will alway praise thee, for that thou hast done this, and I will hope in thy Name, because it is good before thy Saints.
