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 Overseer. — A Psalm, a song of David. Rise doth God — scattered are His enemies! And those hating Him flee from His face.
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 the driving away of smoke Thou drivest away, As the melting of wax before fire, The wicked 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.
And the righteous rejoice, they exult before God, And they joy with gladness.
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 ye to God — praise His name, Raise up a highway for Him who is riding in deserts, In Jah [is] His name, and exult 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.
Father of the fatherless, and 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 — causing the lonely to dwell at home, Bringing out bound ones into prosperity, Only — the refractory have inhabited a dry place.
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, in Thy going forth before Thy people, In Thy stepping 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 hath shaken, Yea, the heavens have dropped before God, This Sinai — before 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.
A shower of free-will gifts thou shakest out, O God. Thine inheritance, when it hath been weary, Thou hast established it.
10 Malaila i noho ai kou ekalesia; No kou maikai, e ke Akua, ua hoomakaukau oe no ka poe ilihune.
Thy company have dwelt in it, Thou preparest in Thy goodness for the poor, O God.
11 Haawi mai la ka Haku i ka olelo; He lehulehu loa ka poe i hoolaha.
The Lord doth give the saying, The female proclaimers [are] a numerous host.
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 hosts flee utterly away, And a female inhabitant of the house apportioneth 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 do lie between two boundaries, Wings of a dove covered with silver, And her pinions with yellow 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 Mighty spreadeth kings in it, It doth snow in Salmon.
15 O ka mauna o ke Akua, ka mauna Basana: He mauna kiekie, ka mauna Basana.
A hill of God [is] the hill of Bashan, A hill of heights [is] the hill of 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 envy, O high hills, The hill God hath desired for His seat? Jehovah also doth tabernacle 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] myriads, thousands of changes, The Lord [is] among them, in Sinai, in the sanctuary.
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 taken captive captivity, Thou hast taken gifts for men, That even the refractory may rest, O Jah God.
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 [is] the Lord, day by day He layeth on us. God Himself [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.
God Himself [is] to us a God for deliverances, And Jehovah Lord hath the outgoings of 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.
Only — God doth smite The head of His enemies, The hairy crown of a habitual walker in his guilt.
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: 'From Bashan I bring back, I bring back from the depths 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.
So that thou dashest thy foot in blood, [In the blood of] enemies — the tongue of Thy dogs.'
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, 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.
Singers have been before, Behind [are] players on instruments, In the midst virgins playing with timbrels.
26 E hoomaikai aku oukou i ke Akua iloko o na auaina, A i ka Haku mai ke kumuwai o ka Iseraela.
In assemblies bless ye God, The Lord — 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, Heads of Judah their defence, Heads of Zebulun — heads 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, Be strong, O God, this 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, To Thee do kings bring a present.
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 a beast of the reeds, a company of bulls, With calves of the peoples, Each humbling himself with pieces of silver, Scatter Thou peoples delighting in conflicts.
31 E hele mai na luna mailoko mai o Aigupita; E kikoo wawe aku o Aitiopa i kona mau lima i ke Akua.
Come do fat ones out of Egypt, Cush causeth her hands to run to God.
32 E oli aku i ke Akua, e na aupuni o ka honua, E himeni hoomaikai aku oukou i ka Haku; (Sila)
Kingdoms of the earth, sing ye to God, Praise ye 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.
To him who is riding on the heavens of the heavens of old, Lo, He giveth with His voice a strong 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 to God, Over Israel [is] His excellency, and His strength 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.
Fearful, O God, out of Thy sanctuaries, The God of Israel Himself, Giving strength and might to the people. Blessed [is] God!
