Halelu 9
1 E HOONANI aku au ia oe, e Iehova, me ko'u naau a pau; E heluhelu aku au i kau mau hana kupaianaha a pau.
For the Chief Musician; set to Muth-labben. A Psalm of David. I will give thanks unto Jehovah with my whole heart; I will show forth all thy marvellous works.
2 E olioli no au, a e hauoli no hoi ia oe: E hoolea aku hoi au i kou inoa, e ke Mea Kiekie loa.
I will be glad and exult in thee; I will sing praise to thy name, O thou Most High.
3 I ka hoi hope ana o ko'u poe enemi, E haule no lakou a make ma kou alo.
When mine enemies turn back, They stumble and perish at thy presence.
4 Ua hoopono mai oe ia'u, ua hooko mai oe i ko'u, Ua noho oe ma ka nohoalii e hoopai pololei ana.
For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; Thou sittest in the throne judging righteously.
5 Ua papa oe i na lahuikanaka e; Ua luku iho no hoi oe i ka poe hewa; Ua hokai mau loa oe i ko lakou inoa i ka wa pau ole.
Thou hast rebuked the nations, thou hast destroyed the wicked; Thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.
6 A o ka enemi, ua pau ia i ka make mau loa; Ua pau ua kulanakauhale ia oe i ka lukuia; Ua lilo hoi ko lakou kaulana i ka make.
The enemy are come to an end, they are desolate for ever; And the cities which thou hast overthrown, The very remembrance of them is perished.
7 Aka, o mau loa ana no o Iehova: Ua hoomakaukau oia i kona nohoalii no ka hookolokolo ana.
But Jehovah sitteth [as king] for ever: He hath prepared his throne for judgment;
8 E hookolokolo mai no ia i ko ke ao nei ma ka pono; E hoopai mai no ia i kanaka me ka ewaewa ole.
And he will judge the world in righteousness, He will minister judgment to the peoples in uprightness.
9 E lilo ana no o Iehova i puuhonua no ka poe i hooluhihewaia, I mea e pakele ai i ka manawa popilikia.
Jehovah also will be a high tower for the oppressed, A high tower in times of trouble;
10 O ka poe i ike i kou inoa e hilinai aku lakou ia oe; O ka poe i imi aku ia oe, aole oe, e Iehova, i haalele ia lakou.
And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee; For thou, Jehovah, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
11 E hoolea aku ia Iehova i ka mea e noho ana ma Ziona: E hai aku iwaena o na kanaka i kana mau hana.
Sing praises to Jehovah, who dwelleth in Zion: Declare among the people his doings.
12 A i imi mai oia i ke koko e hoopai mai, E manao mai no ia ia lakou; Aole oia i hoopoina i ka ulono ana a ka poe haahaa.
For he that maketh inquisition for blood remembereth them; He forgetteth not the cry of the poor.
13 E aloha mai oe ia'u, e Iehova; E manao oe i ka hoino ana mai o ka poe inaina mai ia'u, O oe ka mea nana i hoala au mai ka puka mai o ka make;
Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah; Behold my affliction [which I suffer] of them that hate me, Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death;
14 I hoike aku au i kou nani a pau, Ma na pukapahale o ke kaikamahine a Ziona; E hauoli no hoi au i kou ola.
That I may show forth all thy praise. In the gates of the daughter of Zion I will rejoice in thy salvation.
15 Ua poho ilalo ko na aina e i ka lua a lakou i hana'i, I ka upena a lakou i huna ai i hei ai ko lakou wawae.
The nations are sunk down in the pit that they made: In the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
16 Ua ikea o Iehova, ua hana mai ia i ka pono; Ua punihei ka mea kolohe i ka hana a kona mau lima iho. (Hikaiona, Sila)
Jehovah hath made himself known, he hath executed judgment: The wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. (Higgaion, Selah)
17 E auhulihia ka poe hewa ilalo i ka malu o ka make, A me na lahuikanaka a pau i hoopoina i ke Akua. (Sheol h7585)
The wicked shall be turned back unto Sheol, Even all the nations that forget God. (Sheol h7585)
18 Aka, aole e hoopoina mau ia mai ka poe i hooluhiia, A o ka manaolana o ka ilihune aole loa ia e hoka.
For the needy shall not alway be forgotten, Nor the expectation of the poor perish for ever.
19 E ku ae oe, e Iehova; mai lanakila kanaka; E hookolokoloia mai na lahuikanaka imua o kou alo.
Arise, O Jehovah; let not man prevail: Let the nations be judged in thy sight.
20 E hooweliweli mai oe ia lakou, e Iehova: I ike pono ko na aina, he mau kanaka wale no lakou. (Sila)
Put them in fear, O Jehovah: Let the nations know themselves to be but men. (Selah)
