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 of the music. To the tune of “Do not destroy.” A psalm of Asaph.” We give thanks to thee, O God! we give thanks to thee, and near is thy name; Men shall declare thy wondrous deeds!
2 Aia loaa ia'u ke anaina, Alaila, e hooponopono au ma ka pololei.
“When I see my time, Then will I 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)
The earth trembleth, and all her inhabitants; But I uphold her pillars.”
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 to the proud, Behave not proudly! To the wicked, Lift not up your horn!
5 Mai hookiekie i ko oukou mau pepeiaohao iluna: Mai olelo me ka a-i oolea;
Lift not up your horn on high, And speak not with a stiff neck!
6 No ka mea, aole mai ka hikina, aole hoi mai ke komohana, Aole hoi mai ke kukuluhema, ka hoomaikaiia.
For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south;
7 No ka mea, o ke Akua ka Lunakanawai: Ua hoohaahaa oia i kekahi, a ua hookiekie hoi i kekahi.
But it is God that judgeth; He putteth down one, and setteth 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; The wine is foaming and full of spices, And of it he poureth out; Even to the dregs shall all the wicked of the earth drink it.
9 Aka, e hai mau loa aku no wau; E hemeni aku au i ke Akua o Iakoba.
Therefore I will extol him for ever; I will sing praise 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.
“I will bring down all the power of the wicked; But the righteous shall lift up their heads.”
