Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Remember, O LORD, what has happened to us. Look and see our disgrace!
1E HOOMANAO, e Iehova, i ka mea i hiki mai ai maluna o makou; E noonoo, a e nana mai i ko makou hoowahawahaia.
2Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers, our houses to foreigners.
2Ua huli ko makou aina hooili i na malihini, O ko makou mau hale hoi i na kanaka e.
3We have become fatherless orphans; our mothers are widows.
3He poe keiki makua ole makou, aohe makuakane, Ua-like ko makou poe makuwahine me na wahine kanemake.
4We must buy the water we drink; our wood comes at a price.
4Ua inu makou i ko makou wai no ke kala. Me ke kumukuai i hiki mai ai ko makou wahie.
5We are closely pursued; we are weary and find no rest.
5Ua hoomaauia mai makou ma ko makou mau a-i, Ua hooluhiia makou, aole hoomaha.
6We submitted to Egypt and Assyria to get enough bread.
6Ua haawi makou i ka lima i ko Aigupita, a me ko Asuria, I mea e hoomaonaia mai ai i ka berena.
7Our fathers sinned and are no more, but we bear their punishment.
7Ua haua hewa ko makou poe makuakane, a ua ole lakou; Ua kaikai makou i ko lakou hewa.
8Slaves rule over us; there is no one to deliver us from their hands.
8Ua noho alii mai na kauwa maluna o makou; Aohe mea hoopakele, mailoko aku o ko lakou lima.
9We get our bread at the risk of our lives because of the sword in the wilderness.
9O ko makou ola ke kumukuai, i loaa mai ai ko makou berena, No ka maka o ka pahikaua o ka waonahele.
10Our skin is as hot as an oven with fever from our hunger.
10Ua wela ko makou ili me he umu la, Ma ke alo o ka wela o ka wi.
11Women have been ravished in Zion, virgins in the cities of Judah.
11Moe wale lakou i na wahine ma Ziona, I na kaikamahine hoi o na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda.
12Princes have been hung up by their hands; elders receive no respect.
12Ua kaulia na'lii iluna ma na lima; Aole i manaoia na maka o na lunakahiko.
13Young men toil at millstones; boys stagger under loads of wood.
13Lawe lakou i na kanaka ui, i poe wili palaoa, Hikaka ae la na kanaka opiopio, malalo iho o ka laau.
14The elders have left the city gate; the young men have stopped their music.
14Ua pau ka noho aua o na lunakahiko mai ka pukapa, A ua oki no hoi ke mele ana o na kanaka ui.
15Joy has left our hearts; our dancing has turned to mourning.
15Ua pau ka olioli ana o ko makou naau, Ua hooliloia ko makou hula i kumakena.
16The crown has fallen from our head. Woe to us, for we have sinned!
16Ua haule ka papale alii o ko makou mau poo; Auwe hoi makou i ka makou hana hewa ana.
17Because of this, our hearts are faint; because of these, our eyes grow dim—
17No keia mea, ua maule ko makou naau; No keia mau mea hoi, ua pouli ko makou mau maka.
18because of Mount Zion, which lies desolate, patrolled by foxes.
18He mehameha maluna o ka mauna o Ziona, Hele no na alopeke maluna olaila.
19You, O LORD, reign forever; Your throne endures from generation to generation.
19Ke noho mau loa nei oe, e Iehova, A o kou nohoalii hoi, mai kela hanauna, a keia hanauna.
20Why have You forgotten us forever? Why have You forsaken us for so long?
20No ke aha la oe e hoopoina mau loa ai ia makou, A haalele ia makou no na la ho nui?
21Restore us to Yourself, O LORD, so we may return; renew our days as of old,
21E hoohuli mai oe ia makou iou la, e Iehova, a e hoohuliia makou, E hana hou i ko makou mau la, e like me ka wa kahiko.
22unless You have utterly rejected us and remain angry with us beyond measure.
22No ka mea, e kipaku loa anei oe ia makou! E huhu nui loa mai anei oe ia makou!
