< Halelu 66 >

1 E HOOKANI olioli i ke Akua, e na aina a pau:
To the chief Musician. A Song: a Psalm. Shout aloud unto God, all the earth:
2 E himeni aku i ka nani o kona inoa: E hoolilo i ka hoolea nona i mea nani.
Sing forth the glory of his name, make his praise glorious;
3 E olelo aku i ke Akua, Nani kou kupaianaha i kau hana aua! No ka nui o kou mana e hoolohe ai kou mau enemi ia oe.
Say unto God, How terrible are thy works! because of the greatness of thy strength, thine enemies come cringing unto thee.
4 E pau ka honua i ka hoomana aku ia oe, me ke mele aku ia oe; E himeni aku lakou i kou inoa. (Sila)
All the earth shall worship thee, and sing psalms unto thee: they shall sing forth thy name. (Selah)
5 E hele mai oukou e ike i na hana a ke Akua; He kupaianaha ia i kana hana ana no na keiki a kanaka.
Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in [his] doings toward the children of men.
6 Hoolilo mai la oia i ke kai i aina maloo: Hele wawae ae la lakou iwaena o ka muliwai: Malaila kakou i hauoli aku ai ia ia.
He turned the sea into dry [land]; they went through the river on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
7 Ma kona mana ua hoomalu mau loa oia; Ke nana mai nei kona mau maka i na lahuikanaka: Aole e hookiekie ae ka poe kipikipi. (Sila)
He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes observe the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Selah)
8 E hoomaikai i ko kakou Akua, e na kanaka, E hooloheia'ku ka leo o ka hoolea nona:
Bless our God, ye peoples, and make the voice of his praise to be heard;
9 Ka mea i hoomau i ko kakou uhane ma ke ola nei; Aole i kuu mai e kapeke ko kakou mau wawae.
Who hath set our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.
10 No ka mea, ua hoao mai oe, e ke Akua, ia makou; Ua hoao mai oe ia makou me he kala la i hoaoia.
For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
11 Ua hookomo oe ia makou i ka upena; Ua waiho mai oe i ka mea kaumaha ma ko makou mau puhaka.
Thou broughtest us into a net, thou didst lay a heavy burden upon our loins;
12 Ua haawi mai oe, e hooholo na kanaka maluna o ko makou mau poo: Hele ae la makou iwaena o ke ahi a me ka wai: Aka, ua lawe mai oe ia makou ma kahi waiwai.
Thou didst cause men to ride over our head; we went through fire and through water: but thou hast brought us out into abundance.
13 E hele au iloko o kou hale me na mohaikuni: E hooko aku au nou i ka'u mau mea i hoohiki aku ai,
I will go into thy house with burnt-offerings; I will perform my vows to thee,
14 Ka mea a ko'u mau lehelehe i hoopuka aku ai; A me ko'u waha i olelo ai i kuu popilikia ana.
Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.
15 E kaumaha aku au nou i na mohaikuni momona, Me ka mea ala o na hipa kane; E alana aku au i na bipi me na kao. (Sila)
I will offer up unto thee burnt-offerings of fatted beasts, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. (Selah)
16 E hele mai e hoolohe, e ka poe a pau i weliweli i ke Akua, A e hai aku au i ka mea ana i hana mai ai no kuu uhane.
Come, hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.
17 Ua kahea aku au ia ia me kuu waha, A ua hapaiia'ku hoi ia e ko'u alelo.
I called unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
18 Ina malama au i ka hewa ma ko'u naau, Aole e hoolohe mai ka Haku ia'u:
Had I regarded iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not hear.
19 Aka, ua hoolohe io mai no ke Akua; Ua maliu mai i ka leo o ka'u pule.
But God hath heard; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
20 E hoomaikaiia'ku ke Akua, Ka mea i hookapae ole i ka'u pule, A me kona aloha, mai o'u aku nei.
Blessed be God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor his loving-kindness from me!
