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.
To the Overseer. — 'Destroy not.' — A Psalm of Asaph. — A Song. We have given thanks to Thee, O God, We have given thanks, and near [is] Thy name, They have recounted Thy wonders.
2 Aia loaa ia'u ke anaina, Alaila, e hooponopono au ma ka pololei.
When I receive an appointment, I — I do judge uprightly.
3 Hehee iho la ka honua me ko ka honua a pau: Na'u no i hookupaa i kona mau kia. (Sila)
Melted is the earth and all its inhabitants, I — I have pondered its pillars. (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 have said to the boastful, 'Be not boastful,' And to the wicked, 'Raise not up a horn.'
5 Mai hookiekie i ko oukou mau pepeiaohao iluna: Mai olelo me ka a-i oolea;
Raise not up on high your horn, (Ye speak 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 not from the east, or from the west, Nor from the wilderness — [is] elevation.
7 No ka mea, o ke Akua ka Lunakanawai: Ua hoohaahaa oia i kekahi, a ua hookiekie hoi i kekahi.
But God [is] judge, This He maketh low — and this He lifteth up.
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 a cup [is] in the hand of Jehovah, And the wine hath foamed, It is full of mixture, and He poureth out of it, Only its dregs wring out, and drink, Do all the wicked of the earth,
9 Aka, e hai mau loa aku no wau; E hemeni aku au i ke Akua o Iakoba.
And I — I declare [it] to the age, I 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.
And all horns of the wicked I cut off, Exalted are the horns of the righteous!
