Halelu 72
1 E HAAWI i kou mau kanawai i ke alii, e ke Akua, A i kau pono hoi i ke keiki a ke alii.
[By Solomon.] God, give the king your justice; your righteousness to the royal son.
2 E hooponopono oia i kou poe kanaka ma ka pololei. A i kou poe haahaa ma ka pono.
He will judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice.
3 A e halihali mai no na mauna i ka pomaikai i kanaka, A me na puu liilii hoi, ma ka pono.
The mountains shall bring prosperity to the people. The hills bring the fruit of righteousness.
4 E hooponopono oia i ka poe kaumaha o na kanaka, E hoola oia i na keiki a ka poe ilihune, E hana pepe i ka mea hooluhihewa.
He will judge the poor of the people. He will save the children of the needy, and will break the oppressor in pieces.
5 E weliweli mau lakou ia oe i ka wa o ka la, A i ka luli ana o ka mahina, i na hanauna a pau.
They shall fear you while the sun endures; and as long as the moon, throughout all generations.
6 E iho mai no ia e like me ka ua maluna o ka aina mauu i okiia; Me na kulu ua hoi i hoopulu iho i ka honua.
He will come down like rain on the mown grass, as showers that water the earth.
7 E mohala ae ka poe pono i kona mau la, A me ka pomaikai nui a e ole loa ka mahina.
In his days, the righteous shall flourish, and abundance of peace, until the moon is no more.
8 E hoomalu aupuni oia mai ke kai a i ke kai, A mai ka muliwai hoi a i na welelau o ka honua.
He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, from the River to the farthest parts of the earth.
9 A imua o kona alo e kulou iho ai ko ka waonahele; A e palu no hoi kona poe enemi i ka lepo.
Those who dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him. His enemies shall lick the dust.
10 E halihali mai na'lii o Taresisa a o na mokupuni i na makana; A e haawi mai no hoi na'lii o Seheba a me Seba i ko lakou mau haawina.
The kings of Tarshish and of the islands will bring tribute. The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
11 Oia, e moe iho hoi na'lii a pau imua o kona alo; E pau hoi na lahuikanaka i ka malama ia ia.
Yes, all kings shall fall down before him. All nations shall serve him.
12 No ka mea, hoopakele no oia i ka mea waiwai ole i kona kahea ana; I ka mea ilihune hoi, a me ka mea nele i ke kokua ole.
For he will deliver the needy when he cries; the poor, who has no helper.
13 E hookoe mai no oia i ka mea haahaa, a me ka nele, A e hoola hoi i na uhane o ka poe hemahema.
He will have pity on the poor and needy. He will save the souls of the needy.
14 E hoopakele oia i ko lakou uhane i ka wahahee a me ka lalau wale: A he mea minamina ko lakou koko i kona mau maka.
He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence. Their blood will be precious in his sight.
15 E ola no ia, a e haawiia nona ke gula no Seheba: E mau ana no ka pule nona; A e hoomaikai no ia i kela la i keia la.
And he shall live, and the gold of Sheba shall be given to him. Men shall pray for him continually. He shall bless him all day long.
16 E nui auanei ka palaoa ma ka honua, ma ka piko o na mauna; A e luliluli kona hua e like me Lebanona: A e mohala ae ko ke kulanakauhale me he mauu la o ka honua.
There shall be abundance of grain throughout the land. Its fruit sways like Lebanon. Let it flourish, thriving like the grass of the field.
17 E mau ana no hoi kona inoa; E ulu no kona inoa, a e ole loa ka la: A e pomaikai na kanaka ia ia: E pau hoi na lahuikanaka i ke kapa aku ia ia he pomaikai.
His name endures forever. His name continues as long as the sun. Men shall be blessed by him. All nations will call him blessed.
18 E hoomaikaiia o Iehova ke Akua, ko Iseraela Akua, Ka mea nana wale no i hana na mea kupaianaha.
Praise be to YHWH, the God of Israel, who alone does marvelous deeds.
19 E hoonani mau loa ia'ku kona inoa ihi, E hoopaapuia ka honua a pau i kona nani; Amene, a Amene.
Blessed be his glorious name forever. Let the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen and amen.
20 Pau na pule a Davida ke keiki a Iese.
This ends the prayers by David, the son of Jesse.
