Halelu 84
1 NANI wale kou wahi noho ai, e Iehova o na kaua!
For the Leader; upon the Gittith. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. How lovely are Thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!
2 Iini ko'u uhane, no na hale o Iehova; Kahea aku no ko'u naau a me ko'u kino i ke Akua, i ke Akua ola.
My soul yearneth, yea, even pineth for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh sing for joy unto the living God.
3 Ua loaa i ka manu liilii ka hale, A i ka derora hoi, ka punana, Aia ma kou mau kuahu, e Iehova o na kaua, Kahi e waiho ai i kana mau keiki, E kuu alii a me ko'u Akua.
Yea, the sparrow hath found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young; Thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God —.
4 Ua pomaikai ka poe e noho la ma kou hale; Ua mau loa no ko lakou halelu ana ia oe. (Sila)
Happy are they that dwell in Thy house, they are ever praising Thee. (Selah)
5 Pomaikai ke kanaka i loaa ka ikaika ia oe, A me ka poe i paa na alanui maikai iloko o ko lakou naau.
Happy is the man whose strength is in Thee; in whose heart are the highways.
6 Ia lakou e hele ae ma ke kahawai o Baka, Hoolilo lakou ia ia i waipuna; Na ka ua hoi e hoopiha i na punawai.
Passing through the valley of Baca they make it a place of springs; yea, the early rain clotheth it with blessings.
7 Hele no lakou, mai kela ikaika, a i keia ikaika aku, E ikeia mai lakou e ke Akua ma Ziona.
They go from strength to strength, every one of them appeareth before God in Zion.
8 E Iehova ke Akua o na kaua, E hoolohe mai oe i ka'u pule; E haliu mai kou pepeiao, e ke Akua o Iakoba. (Sila)
O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob. (Selah)
9 E ke Akua, e nana oe i ko makou palekaua, E ike hoi i ka maka o ka Mea au i poni ai.
Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of Thine anointed.
10 No ka mea, ua oi aku ka maikai o ka la hookahi ma kou hale mamua o ka tausani. Ua oi aku ko'u makemake i ke kiai puka ma ka hale o ko'u Akua, Mamua o ka noho ana ma na halelewa o ka poe hewa.
For a day in Thy courts is better than a thousand; I had rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11 No ka mea, o Iehova, ke Akua, he la no ia, a he palekaua; E haawi mai no o Iehova i ka lokomaikai, a me ka hanohano; Aole ia e aua i kekahi mea maikai i ka poe hele ma ka pololei.
For the LORD God is a sun and a shield; the LORD giveth grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly.
12 E Iehova o na kaua, Ua pomaikai ke kanaka hilinai aku ia oe.
O LORD of hosts, happy is the man that trusteth in Thee.
