Halelu 68
1 E KU iluna ke Akua, e hooauhee liilii i kona mau enemi: E auhee hoi imua ona ka poe i hoowahawaha ia ia.
To the chief Musician. Of David. A Psalm: a Song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered, and let them that hate him flee before him.
2 Me he uahi la i puhiia'ku, pela e hoopuehu ai oe ia lakou; Me ka pilali i hehee ai imua o ke ahi, Pela e make ai ka poe hewa imua o ke Akua.
As smoke is driven, thou wilt drive them away; as wax melteth before the fire, the wicked shall perish at the presence of God.
3 Aka, e olioli ka poe pono, e hauoli hoi imua o ke Akua; Oiaio, e hauoli loa lakou.
But the righteous shall rejoice: they shall exult before God and be glad with joy.
4 E himeni aku oukou i ke Akua; E hoolea aku hoi i kona inoa: E hapai aku hoi i ka mea holokaa maluna o na lani, Ma koua inoa, o IA, a e hauoli imua ona.
Sing unto God, sing forth his name; cast up a way for him that rideth in the deserts: his name is Jah; and rejoice before him.
5 O ka Makua no ka poe makua ole, O ka Lunakanawai no na wahinekanemake, Oia ke Akua i kona wahi hoano e noho ai.
A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.
6 Ua hoonoho ke Akua i na mea mehameha iloko o na ohana; O ka poe i paa i na kaula hao, kana i hoopuka mai nei; Aka, e noho no ka poe kipikipi ma kahi panoa.
God maketh the solitary into families; those that were bound he bringeth out into prosperity: but the rebellious dwell in a parched [land].
7 E ke Akua, i kou hele ana imua o kou poe kanaka, I kou eu ana'e iwaena o ka waonahele; (Sila)
O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness (Selah)
8 Haalulu ae la ka honua, Hookulukulu mai la ka lani, ma ke alo o ke Akua: O Sinai hoi kekahi ma ke alo o ke Akua, ke Akua o Iseraela.
The earth trembled, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God, yon Sinai, at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9 Hoohelelei iho la oe, e ke Akua, i ka ua nui, I hoomau ai oe i kou hooilina i kona nawaliwali ana.
Thou, O God, didst pour a plentiful rain upon thine inheritance, and when it was weary thou strengthenedst it.
10 Malaila i noho ai kou ekalesia; No kou maikai, e ke Akua, ua hoomakaukau oe no ka poe ilihune.
Thy flock hath dwelt therein: thou hast prepared in thy goodness, for the afflicted, O God!
11 Haawi mai la ka Haku i ka olelo; He lehulehu loa ka poe i hoolaha.
The Lord gives the word: great the host of the publishers.
12 O na'lii o na poe kaua ua auhee wawe lakou: A o ka mea i noho ma ka hale ua puunaue no ia i ka waiwai pio.
Kings of armies flee; they flee, and she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.
13 A i moe ae oukou mawaena o na ipuhao, E like auanei oukou me na eheu o ka manu ku i paapu i ke kala; A me kona mau hulu, i ke gula lenalena.
Though ye have lain among the sheepfolds, [ye shall be as] wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with green gold.
14 I ka wa i hoopuehu ai ka Mea mana loa i na'lii iloko ona, Ua like ia me ka hau ma Salemona;
When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it became snow-white as Zalmon.
15 O ka mauna o ke Akua, ka mauna Basana: He mauna kiekie, ka mauna Basana.
[As] mount Bashan is the mount of God, a many-peaked mountain, [as] mount Bashan.
16 O ke aha la ka oukou mea e kiei malu ai, e na maunakiekie? Eia ka mauna a ke Akua i makemake ai e noho, Oiaio, e noho mau loa o Iehova ma neia.
Why do ye look with envy, ye many-peaked mountains, upon the mount that God hath desired for his abode? yea, Jehovah will dwell [there] for ever.
17 O na kaa o ke Akua elua umi tausani i papaluaia; O ka Haku ka iwaena o lakou, Pela ma Sinai, a ma kahi hoano.
The chariots of God are twenty thousand, thousands upon thousands; the Lord is among them: it is a Sinai in holiness.
18 Ua pii ae oe iluna, ua lawe pio oe i ke pio ana; Ua loaa no ia oe na haawina no na kanaka, Oia, no ka poe kipikipi kekahi i noho pu mai ai ke Akua ka Haku.
Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts in Man, and even [for] the rebellious, for the dwelling [there] of Jah Elohim.
19 E hoomaikaiia'ku ka Haku, ka mea i hooili ukana maluna o kakou i kela la i keia la, O ko kakou Akua e ola'i. (Sila)
Blessed be the Lord: day by day doth he load us [with good], the God who is our salvation. (Selah)
20 O ko kakou Akua, oia ke Akua e ola'i; A no Iehova ka Haku ka puka ana ae no ka make.
Our God is the God of salvation; and with Jehovah, the Lord, are the goings forth [even] from death.
21 E hana pepe ke Akua i ke poo o kona poe enemi, A me ka pua lauoho o ka mea e hele ana'e ma kona mau hewa.
Verily God will smite the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp of him that goeth on still in his trespasses.
22 I mai la ke Akua, Mai Basana mai e alakai hou mai au; E hoihoi mai no hoi au mailoko mai o na hohonu o ke kai.
The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring [them] again from the depth of the sea;
23 I komo kou kapuwai iloko o ke koko o na enemi, A me ke alelo o kau mau ilio iloko o ia mea no.
That thou mayest dip thy foot in blood: the tongue of thy dogs has its portion from enemies.
24 Ua ike lakou i kou hele ana, e ke Akua, Na hele ana o ko'u Akua, kuu Alii, ma kahi hoano.
They have seen thy goings, O God, the goings of my God, my King, in the sanctuary.
25 Ua hele mua ae ka poe mele himeni, A mahope iho ka poe hookanikani i na kaula: A iwaena na kaikamahine e hookani timerela ana.
The singers went before, the players on stringed instruments after, in the midst of maidens playing on tabrets.
26 E hoomaikai aku oukou i ke Akua iloko o na auaina, A i ka Haku mai ke kumuwai o ka Iseraela.
In the congregations bless ye God, the Lord, — [ye] from the fountain of Israel.
27 Malaila o Beniamina ka mea uuku, o ko lakou alii kekahi, Na'lii o Iuda, ko lakou poe ahaolelo, Na'lii o Zebuluna, a me na'lii o Napetali.
There is little Benjamin, their ruler; the princes of Judah, their company; the princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.
28 Ua kauoha mai kou Akua i kou ikaika: E hookupaa mai, e ke Akua, i ka mea au i hana'i no makou.
Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.
29 No kou luakini ma Ierusalema, E lawe ai na'lii i na makana ia oe.
Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee.
30 E papa mai oe i ka holoholona o na ohe, Ke anaina o na mea ikaika, iwaena o na bipi o na lahuikanaka; A hoohaahaa iho kela keia ia ia iho me na apana kala: E hooauhee liilii oe i na kanaka puni kaua.
Rebuke the beast of the reeds, the assembly of the strong, with the calves of the peoples: [every one] submitteth himself with pieces of silver. Scatter the peoples that delight in war.
31 E hele mai na luna mailoko mai o Aigupita; E kikoo wawe aku o Aitiopa i kona mau lima i ke Akua.
Great ones shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall quickly stretch out her hands unto God.
32 E oli aku i ke Akua, e na aupuni o ka honua, E himeni hoomaikai aku oukou i ka Haku; (Sila)
Ye kingdoms of the earth, sing unto God; sing psalms of the Lord, (Selah)
33 I ka mea e holokaa ana ma na lani o na lani kahiko; Aia, ke hoopuka mai la oia i kona leo, he leo mana.
Of him that rideth upon the heavens, the heavens which are of old: lo, he uttereth his voice, a mighty voice.
34 E haawi oukou no ke Akua ka mana; Maluna o ka Iseraela kona nani; O kona mana hoi, aia no i na ao.
Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his strength is in the clouds.
35 He mea weliweli oe, e ke Akua, mailoko mai o kou wahi hoano: O ke Akua o ka Iseraela, oia ka mea i haawi mai i ka ikaika a me ka mana i kona poe kanaka. E hoomaikaiia'ku ke Akua.
Terrible art thou, O God, out of thy sanctuaries, — the God of Israel! He it is that giveth strength and might unto the people. Blessed be God!
