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. O God, Thy judgments to the king give, And Thy righteousness to the king's son.
2 E hooponopono oia i kou poe kanaka ma ka pololei. A i kou poe haahaa ma ka pono.
He judgeth Thy people with righteousness, And Thy poor with judgment.
3 A e halihali mai no na mauna i ka pomaikai i kanaka, A me na puu liilii hoi, ma ka pono.
The mountains bear peace to the people, And the heights by 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 judgeth the poor of the people, Giveth deliverance to the sons of the needy, And bruiseth the oppressor.
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 fear Thee with the sun, and before the moon, Generation — 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 cometh down as rain on mown grass, As showers — sprinkling the earth.
7 E mohala ae ka poe pono i kona mau la, A me ka pomaikai nui a e ole loa ka mahina.
Flourish in his days doth the righteous, And abundance of peace till the moon is not.
8 E hoomalu aupuni oia mai ke kai a i ke kai, A mai ka muliwai hoi a i na welelau o ka honua.
And he ruleth from sea unto sea, And from the river unto the ends of 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.
Before him bow do the inhabitants of the dry places, And his enemies 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.
Kings of Tarshish and of the isles send back a present. Kings of Sheba and Seba a reward bring near.
11 Oia, e moe iho hoi na'lii a pau imua o kona alo; E pau hoi na lahuikanaka i ka malama ia ia.
And all kings do bow themselves to him, All nations do 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 delivereth the needy who crieth, And the poor when he hath 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 hath pity on the poor and needy, And the souls of the needy he saveth,
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.
From fraud and from violence he redeemeth their soul, And precious is their blood in his eyes.
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 liveth, and giveth to him of the gold of Sheba, And prayeth for him continually, All the day he doth bless him.
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 is a handful of corn in the earth, On the top of mountains, Shake like Lebanon doth its fruit, And they flourish out of the city as the herb of the earth.
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 is to the age, Before the sun is his name continued, And they bless themselves in him, All nations do pronounce him happy.
18 E hoomaikaiia o Iehova ke Akua, ko Iseraela Akua, Ka mea nana wale no i hana na mea kupaianaha.
Blessed is Jehovah God, God of Israel, He alone is doing wonders,
19 E hoonani mau loa ia'ku kona inoa ihi, E hoopaapuia ka honua a pau i kona nani; Amene, a Amene.
And blessed [is] the Name of His honour to the age, And the whole earth is filled [with] His honour. Amen, and amen!
20 Pau na pule a Davida ke keiki a Iese.
The prayers of David son of Jesse have been ended.
