Halelu 75

1 KE hoomaikai aku nei makou ia oe, e ke Akua, Ke hoomaikai aku nei makou; No ka mea, o ke kokoke ana mai o kou inoa, Ua hoakakaia e kau mau hana kupanaha.

For the Leader; Al-tashheth. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song. We give thanks unto Thee, O God, we give thanks, and Thy name is near; men tell of Thy wondrous works.

2 Aia loaa ia'u ke anaina, Alaila, e hooponopono au ma ka pololei.

'When I take the appointed time, I Myself will judge with equity.

3 Hehee iho la ka honua me ko ka honua a pau: Na'u no i hookupaa i kona mau kia. (Sila)

When the earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved, I Myself establish the pillars of it.' (Selah)

4 I aku la au i ka poe naaupo, Mai hana naaupo oukou; A i ka poe aia, Mai hookiekie i ka pepeiaohao.

I say unto the arrogant: 'Deal not arrogantly'; and to the wicked: 'Lift not up the horn.'

5 Mai hookiekie i ko oukou mau pepeiaohao iluna: Mai olelo me ka a-i oolea;

Lift not up your horn on high; speak not insolence with a haughty neck.

6 No ka mea, aole mai ka hikina, aole hoi mai ke komohana, Aole hoi mai ke kukuluhema, ka hoomaikaiia.

For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor yet from the wilderness, cometh lifting up.

7 No ka mea, o ke Akua ka Lunakanawai: Ua hoohaahaa oia i kekahi, a ua hookiekie hoi i kekahi.

For God is judge; He putteth down one, and lifteth up another.

8 No ka mea, he kiaha ka iloko o ka lima o Iehova, He ulaula ka waina, a ua piha i ka mea anoninoniia; Ke ninini nei oia i koloko; Aka, o kona okaoka, oia ka ka poe hewa a pau o ka honua e kowi ai, a e inu.

For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, with foaming wine, full of mixture, and He poureth out of the same; surely the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall drain them, and drink them.

9 Aka, e hai mau loa aku no wau; E hemeni aku au i ke Akua o Iakoba.

But as for me, I will declare for ever, I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

10 O na pepeiaohao a pau o ka poe hewa ka'u e oki aku ai: Aka, e hookiekieia'e na pepeiaohao o ka mea pono.

All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.
