Halelu 89
1 E HOOKANI mau loa aku au i ka lokomaikai o Iehova; Ma ko'u waha e hoike aku at au i kou oiaio i kela hanauna, i keia hanauna.
“A Maskil of Ethan the Ezrachite.” The kindnesses of the Lord will I for ever sing: from generation to generation will I make known thy faithfulness with my mouth.
2 No ka mea, ua olelo no wau, e hoopaa mau loa ia kou lokomaikai; A e hookumu no hoi oe i kou oiaio ma ka lani.
For I have said, To eternity will kindness be built up: the heavens—yea, in these wilt thou establish thy faithfulness.
3 Ua hana au i berita me kou poe i waeia, Ua hoohiki aku au no Davida, ka'u kauwa,
“I have made a covenant with my elect, I have sworn unto David my servant,
4 E hoonoho paa loa wau i kau poe mamo, A e hana no hoi au i nohoalii nou no na hanauna a pau. (Sila)
Unto eternity will I establish thy seed, and I will build up thy throne, from generation to generation.” (Selah)
5 Na ka lani no e hoolea i kou mau mea mana, e Iehova, I kou oiaio kekahi, ma ke anaina o ka poe pono.
And the heavens praise thy wonder, O Lord: also thy faithfulness in the assembly of holy ones.
6 No ka mea, owai la ka mea ma ke aonli e ku like me Iehova? Iwaena hoi o na keiki a ka poe kiekie, e hoohalikeia me Iehova?
For who in the sky can be compared unto the Lord? who can be likened unto the Lord among the sons of the mighty?
7 He Akua woliweli loa hoi ia ma ke anaina o ka poe pono; A he mea ia e hopohopo ai no ka poe a pau e noho hoopuni ana ia ia.
God is greatly terrific in the secret council of the holy ones and fear-inspiring over all that are about him.
8 E Iehova, ke Akua o na kaua, Owai la kekahi Iehova e like me oe? Me kou oiaio hoi e hoopuni ana ia oe?
O Lord God of hosts, who is powerful, like thee, Eternal! and thy faithfulness is round about thee.
9 O oe no ka i hookouopono i ke kupikipikio ana o ke kai; A pii nui ae kona mau ale, nau ia e hoomalielie.
Thou rulest over the pride of the sea: when its waves are lifted up, thou assuagest them.
10 Ua paopao no oe ia Rahaba, me he mea la i pepehiia; I ka ikaika o kou lima, na hooauhee oe i kou poe enemi.
Thou didst crush Rahab as one that is slain: with thy strong arm didst thou scatter thy enemies.
11 Nau no ka lani, nau no hoi ka honua; Ua hookumu no oe i ke ao, a me kona mau mea e piha'i.
Thine are the heavens, also thine is the earth: as for the world and what filleth it, thou hast founded them.
12 O ke kukulu akau, a me ke kukuluhema, nau no i hana ia mau mea; E olioli no o Tabora a me Heremona i kou inoa.
The north and the south—these hast thou created: Tabor and Chermon shall rejoice in thy name.
13 He lima no kou i lako i ka ikaika: Ua ikaika no kou lima, ua kiekie hoi kou lima akau.
Thine is the powerful arm, with might: strong is thy hand, and exalted is thy right hand.
14 O ka pono, a me ka hoopono, oia ke kumu o kou nohoalii: E hele ae no imua o kou maka ka lokomaikai, a me ka oiaio.
Righteousness and justice are the prop of thy throne: kindness and truth precede thy presence.
15 Pomaikai ka poe kanaka ike ia leo hauoli: E Iehova, e hele no lakou ma ka malamalama o kou maka.
Happy is the people that know the cornet's sound: O Lord, in the light of thy countenance will they ever walk firmly.
16 E hauoli no lakou i kou inoa a po ka la; A ma kou pono hoi e hookiekieia'i lakou.
In thy name will they be glad all the day, and in thy righteousness will they be exalted.
17 No ka mea, o oe no ka nani o ko lakou ikaika; A ma kou lokomaikai e hookiekieia'i ko makou pepeiaohao.
For thou art the glory of their strength; and through thy favor will our horn be exalted.
18 No ka mea, aia no ia Iehova ko makou paku, A i ka Mea Hemolele hoi o ka Iseraela, ko makou alii.
For of the Lord is our shield; and of the Holy One of Israel is our king.
19 Alaila, olelo iho no oe i kou mea hemolele ma ke akaku, I mai la. Ua kau aku au i ka mana maluna o ka mea ikaika; Ua hookiekie au i ka mea i waeia mai o na kanaka.
Then spokest thou in a vision to thy pious [servant], and saidst, “I have bestowed help to one that is mighty; I have exalted a youth out of the people;
20 Ua loaa ia'u o Davida, o ka'u kauwa; Ua poni aku no au ia ia me kuu aila laa.
I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him;
21 E paa mau no ko'u lima me ia, A e hooikaika aku no ko'u lima ia ia.
With whom my hand shall be firmly established; also my arm shall strengthen him;
22 Aole e kii mai ka enemi i kana, Aole hoi e hookaumaha ke keiki a ka hewa ia ia.
The enemy shall not exact from him like a lender: and the son of injustice shall not afflict him:
23 Na'u no e hooauhee i kona poe enemi imua ona, A e luku aku hoi i ka poe inaina mai ia ia,
And I will beat down before his face his assailants, and those that hate him will I plague.
24 E noho no ko'u oiaio a me ko'u lokomaikai me ia; A ma ko'u inoa e hookiekieia'i kona pepeiaohao.
But my faithfulness and my kindness shall be with him: and through my name shall his horn be exalted.
25 E hookau aku au i kona lima ma ke kai, A me kona lima akau hoi ma na muliwai.
And I will place on the sea his hand, and on the rivers his right hand.
26 E hea mai no oia ia'u, O oe no ko'u Makua, O ko'u Akua hoi, a me ka Pohaku o ko'u hoolaia.
He will call unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.
27 E hoolilo no wau ia ia i ko'u makahiapo, I mea kiekie maluna o na'lii o ka honua.
Also I will appoint my first-born, the highest among the kings of the earth.
28 E malama mau loa no wau i ko'u lokomaikai ia ia, A e ku paa loa no ko'u berita me ia.
For evermore will I keep for him my kindness, and my covenant shall stand faithfully with him.
29 E hoomau loa no wau i kona poe mamo, A me kona nohoalii hoi, e like me na la o ka lani.
And I appoint for ever his seed, and his throne as the days of heaven.
30 Ina haalele kana poe keiki i ko'u kanawai, Aole hoi e hele ma kou hoopono ana.
If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my ordinances;
31 Ina kuu aku lakou i ka'u olelo pau, Aole hoi e malama i ka'u mau kauoha;
If they profane my statutes, and keep not my commandments:
32 Alaila e hoopai aku au i ko lakou hewa i ka laau hahau, A me ko lakou hala hoi i ke kaula.
Then will I visit with the rod their transgressions, and with plagues their iniquity.
33 Aole nae o lawe loa aku au i ko'u lokomaikai mai ona aku. Aole hoi au e hoole i ko'u lokomaikai.
Nevertheless my kindness will I not make utterly void from him, and I will not act falsely against my faithfulness.
34 Aole au e ae maluna o ka'u berita, Aole hoi e hoololi i ka olelo i puka aku ma ko'u lehelehe.
I will not profane my covenant, and what is gone out of my lips will I not alter.
35 Hookahi no ko'u hoohiki ana i ko'u hemolele, Aole au e wahahee aku ia Davida.
One thing have I sworn by my holiness, that I will not lie unto David.
36 E mau loa ana no kana poe mamo, A me kona nohoalii, e like me ka la imua o'u.
His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne shall be like the sun before me.
37 E hoopaa mau loa ia no hoi ia, e like me ka mahina, Me he mea hoike oiaio la ma ke aouli. (Sila)
Like the moon shall it be firmly established for ever, and as this faithful witness in the sky.” (Selah)
38 Aka, ua hooki mai oe, a ua hoopailua mai, A ua huhu mai no hoi oe i kau mea i poni ai.
And yet thou hast east off and despised, thou hast become wroth with thy anointed.
39 Ua hoole mai no hoi oe i ka berita o kau kauwa: Ua hoolei oe i kona leialii i lalo i ka lepo.
Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned, down to the ground, his crown.
40 Ua wawahi no hoi oe i kona mau pa a pau, Ua haawi mai no hoi oe i kona mau pakaua i ka lukuia.
Thou hast broken down all his fences: thou hast brought his strong-holds to terror.
41 Hao wale ia ia ka poe a pau e maalo ana ae malaila: He mea hoomaewaowa ia i kona poe hoalauna.
All that pass by the way plunder him: he is become a reproach to his neighbors.
42 Ua hookiekio oe i ka lima akau o kona poe enemi; Ua hoohauoli oe i ka poe a pau i inaina mai ia ia.
Thou hast raised up the right hand of his assailants: thou hast caused all his enemies to rejoice.
43 Ua hoohuli ae no hoi oe i ka maka o kana pahikaua, Aole hoi oe i hookupaa ia ia ma ke kaua.
Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not let him stand erect in the battle.
44 Ua hooki mai oe i kona nani, A ua hoolei i kona nohoalii ilalo i ka lepo.
Thou hast made his brilliancy cease; and his throne hast thou thrown down to the ground.
45 Ua hoopokole mai oe i na la o kona wa opiopio; Ua uhi mai no hoi oe ia ia i ka hilahila. (Sila)
Thou hast shortened the days of his youth: thou hast enshrouded him with shame. (Selah)
46 Pehea la ka loihi o kou hoonalo ana ia oe iho, e Iehova? E mau loa anei? E a mai nei anei kou huhu me he ahi la?
How long, Lord, wilt thou hide thyself, continually? how long shall thy fury burn like fire?
47 E hoomanao mai oe ia'u, pehea la ka loihi o ke ola ana? No ke aha la oe i hana makehewa ai i na kanaka a pau?
Remember [what] I am, what my duration is [here], for what nothingness thou hast created all sons of men!
48 Owai ke kanaka e ola nei, aole oia e ike i ka make? E hoopakele anei oia i kona ola, mai ka lima aku o ka mea make? (Sila) (Sheol h7585)
What man is there that can live, and shall not see death? that can deliver his soul from the power of the nether word? (Selah) (Sheol h7585)
49 Auhea la kou lokomaikai o na manawa kahiko, e ka Haku? Ka mea au i hoohiki ai ia Davida ma ka oiaio?
Where are thy former kindnesses, O Lord, which thou hast sworn unto David by thy truth?
50 E hoomanao mai oe, e ka Haku, i ka hoinoia o kau kauwa; Ua lawe no wau ma kou umauma i na lehulehu a pau o kou poe kanaka.
Remember, Lord, the disgrace of thy servants; that I bear in my bosom the [burden] of all the many nations;
51 No ka mea, ua hoino wale mai kou poe enemi, e Iehova, Ua hoino wale mai hoi i na kapuwai o kou mea i poniia.
That thy enemies have defied, O Lord; that they have defied the footsteps of thy anointed.
52 E hoomaikaiia o Iehova, a i ka manawa pau ole. Amene, Amene.
Blessed be the Lord for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
