Halelu 86
1 E HALIU mai kou pepeiao, e Iehova, a e hoolohe mai ia'u; No ka mea, ua pilikia au, a ua ilihune hoi.
A prayer of David. Please listen to me, Lord! Please answer me, for I am weak and really need your help!
2 E malama mai oe i ko'u uhane, no ka mea, he haipule au: E kuu Akua, e hoola mai oe i kau kauwa i hilinai aku ia oe.
Don't let me die, for I am faithful to you. Save me, for I am your servant and I trust in you. You are my God.
3 E aloha mai oe ia'u, e kuu Haku; No ka mea, ke kahea aku nei au ia oe i na la a pau.
Be kind to me, Lord, for I call out to you all day long.
4 E hoohauoli mai oe i ka uhane o kau kauwa; No ka mea, ia oe no wau e hapai nei i ko'u uhane, e ka Haku.
Make me happy, Lord, for I've dedicated my life to you.
5 A, no ka mea hoi, ua maikai oe, e ka Haku, a ua maliu koke mai hoi: Manomano kou lokomaikai ka poe a pau i hea aku ia oe.
For you, Lord, are good; you are forgiving and full of trustworthy love for all who come to you.
6 E haliu mai kou pepeiao i ka'u pule, e Iehova; A e hoolohe i ka leo o ko'u nonoi ana.
Lord, please listen to my prayer. Hear my call for help.
7 I ka la o ko'u popilikia e kahea aku no au ia oe; No ka mea, e ae mai no oe ia'u.
When I'm in trouble I cry out to you because I know you will answer me.
8 Aohe mea like me oe iwaena o na'kua, e ka Haku e, Aole hoi he hana e like me kau.
There's no one like you among the “gods,” Lord. No one can do the things you do.
9 E hele mai no ko na aina a pau au i hana'i, A e kulou hoomana imua o kou alo, e ka Haku, A e hoonani aku i kou inoa.
You created all the nations, and they will come and bow down before you, Lord. They will declare how wonderful you are.
10 No ka mea, ua nui loa oe, a ua hana hoi i na mea kupanaha; O oe wale no ke Akua.
For you are great, and do wonderful things! Only you are God.
11 E kuhikuhi mai oe i kou alanui, e Iehova, a e hele no wau ma kou oiaio; E hoolokahi mai oe i kou naau e makau aku i kou inoa.
Lord, please teach me your way, so I can depend on your trustworthiness. Make me single-minded, so I can consistently honor the kind of person you are.
12 E hoolea aku no au ia oe, e ka Haku, ko'u Akua, me ko'u naau a pau; A e hoonani mau loa aku i kou inoa.
Lord my God, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I will praise your character forever.
13 No ka mea, nui loa kou lokomaikai mai ia'u; Ua hoopakele mai oe i ko'u uhane i ka malu o ka make. (Sheol h7585)
For your trustworthy love for me is so great; you have saved me from death. (Sheol h7585)
14 E ke Akua e, ua ala ku e mai ia'u ka poe hookiekie, A o ke anaina hookaumaha, ua imi mai lakou i ko'u uhane; Aole hoi lakou i hoonoho ia oe imua o lakou.
God, arrogant people are attacking me, vicious people are trying to kill me. To them you count for nothing.
15 Aka, o oe no ke Akua aloha, a me ka lokomaikai, e ka Haku, E hookaulua ana i ka huhu, A ua nui hoi ka lokomaikai, a me ka oiaio.
But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to become angry, full of trustworthy love and faithfulness.
16 E maliu mai oe, a e aloha mai hoi ia'u; E haawi mai oe i kou ikaika na kau kauwa nei, A e hoola mai hoi i ke keiki a kau kauwawahine.
Turn to me, have mercy on me. Give me your strength, your servant; save the son of your servant-girl.
17 E haawi mai oe i hoailona no ka maikai, I ike mai ka poe i huhu ia'u, a hilahila; No ka mea, ua kokua mai oe ia'u, e Iehova, A ua hooluolu mai no hoi ia'u.
Show me a sign that you approve of me! Those who hate me will see it, and they will be ashamed because you, Lord, have helped me.
