Halelu 109
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1E KE Akua a'u i halelu ai, mai hookuli mai oe;
1For the Leader. A Psalm of David. O God of my praise, keep not silence;
2No ka mea, o ka waha o ka mea hewa, A me ka waha wahahee, ua hamama mai laua e ku e ia'u; Ua olelo ku e mai lakou ia'u, me ke elelo wahahee.
2For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of deceit have they opened against me; they have spoken unto me with a lying tongue.
3Hoopuni mai lakou ia'u i na olelo huhu; A hakaka mai lakou ia'u me ka hala ole o'u.
3They compassed me about also with words of hatred, and fought against me without a cause.
4No ko'u aloha enemi mai lakou ia'u; E pule aku no nae au.
4In return for my love they are my adversaries; but I am all prayer.
5Hookau mai lakou i ka hewa maluna o'u no ka maikai, A me ka inaina no ko'u aloha.
5And they have laid upon me evil for good, and hatred for my love:
6E hoonoho oe i ka mea hewa maluna ona; A e hooku mai ia Satana ma kona lima akau.
6'Set Thou a wicked man over him; and let an adversary stand at his right hand.
7Ia ia e hookolokoloia'i, E puka mai no kona hewa, A e lilo no kana pule i mea e hewa'i.
7When he is judged, let him go forth condemned; and let his prayer be turned into sin.
8E uuku no kona mau la, E lawe hoi kekahi i kana oihana.
8Let his days be few; let another take his charge.
9E makua ole auanei kana poe keiki, A e lilo auanei kana wahine i wahinekanemake.
9Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
10E kuewa, e kuewa wale aku no kana poe keiki, a e nonoi wale; E imi wale lakou ma ko lakou wahi neoneo.
10Let his children be vagabonds, and beg; and let them seek their bread out of their desolate places.
11Na ka makee waiwai e kaili wale i kana mau mea a pau, A na na malihini e hao wale i kona waiwai.
11Let the creditor distrain all that he hath; and let strangers make spoil of his labour.
12Aohe mea nana e hoomau i ka lokomaikai ia ia; Aohe hoi mea aloha i kana mau huahaule.
12Let there be none to extend kindness unto him; neither let there be any to be gracious unto his fatherless children.
13E hookiia kana poe mamo; A ia hanauna aku e holoiia ko lakou inoa.
13Let his posterity be cut off; in the generation following let their name be blotted out.
14E hoomanaoia ka hewa o kona poe kupuna imua o Iehova; Aole hoi e kalaia na hewa o kona makuwahine.
14Let the iniquity of his fathers be brought to remembrance unto the LORD; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.
15E mau loa ana no lakou imua o Iehova; I hookiia ka manao ana ia lakou mai ka honua aku.
15Let them be before the LORD continually, that He may cut off the memory of them from the earth.
16No ka mea, aole ia i hoomanao e hana i ka lokomaikai, A hoomaau oia i ke kanaka nele, a ilihune hoi, I pepehi oia i ka mea naau ehaeha.
16Because that he remembered not to do kindness, but persecuted the poor and needy man, and the broken in heart he was ready to slay.
17Me ia i makemake ai i ka hailiili, pela no e hiki mai ai ia maluna ona; Me ia i makemake ole ai i ka hoomaikai, e mamao loa ia mai ona aku.
17Yea, he loved cursing, and it came unto him; and he delighted not in blessing, and it is far from him.
18Kahiko no oia ia ia iho i ka hailiili me he kapa la, E komo no hoi ia iloko o kona opu me he wai la, A e like hoi me ka aila iloko o kona mau iwi.
18He clothed himself also with cursing as with his raiment, and it is come into his inward parts like water, and like oil into his bones.
19A e like no auanei ia me he kapa la ia ia, A me ke kaei hoi ana e kaei mau ai.
19Let it be unto him as the garment which he putteth on, and for the girdle wherewith he is girded continually.'
20O keia no ka uku o ko'u poe enemi mai o Iehova mai, A me ko ka poe hoi e olelo ino mai i ko'u uhane.
20This would mine adversaries effect from the LORD, and they that speak evil against my soul.
21Aka, e hana mai oe mamuli o'u, e Iehova ka Haku, no kou inoa iho: No ka mea, ua maikai kou lokomaikai, e hoopakele mai ia'u.
21But Thou, O GOD the Lord, deal with me for Thy name's sake; because Thy mercy is good, deliver Thou me.
22No ka mea, ua nele, a ua ilihune hoi au, A ua houia ko'u naau iloko ou.
22For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.
23Ua hele aku au e like me ke aka i kona auwi ana, Ua kuehuehuia au me he uhini la.
23I am gone like the shadow when it lengtheneth; I am shaken off as the locust.
24Kulanalana ko'u mau kuli no ka hookeai, A hookii no hoi ko'u kino ma ke kelekele.
24My knees totter through fasting; and my flesh is lean, and hath no fatness.
25Ua lilo wau i mea hoomaewaewa no lakou; Nana mai lakou ia'u, a kunokunou i ko lakou poo.
25I am become also a taunt unto them; when they see me, they shake their head.
26E kokua mai oe ia'u, e Iehova, ko'u Akua; E hoola mai oe ia'u e like me kou lokomaikai ana.
26Help me, O LORD my God; O save me according to Thy mercy;
27I ike mai hoi lakou, o kou lima keia; O oe hoi e Iehova, ka mea nana i hana ia mea.
27That they may know that this is Thy hand; that Thou, LORD, hast done it.
28Na lakou e hailiili mai, aka, e hoomaikai mai oe, A ku mai lakou iluna, e hoohilahilaia lakou; Aka, e hoohauoli mai oe i kau kauwa.
28Let them curse, but bless Thou; when they arise, they shall be put to shame, but Thy servant shall rejoice.
29E kahikoia ko'u poe enemi i ka hoopalaimaka, A e uhi no lakou ia lakou iho i ka hilahila me he holoku la.
29Mine adversaries shall be clothed with confusion, and shall put on their own shame as a robe.
30E mililani nui aka au ia Iehova, ma ko'u waha; A e halelu aku ia ia mawaena o ka lehulehu.
30I will give great thanks unto the LORD with my mouth; yea, I will praise Him among the multitude;
31No ka mea, e ku mai auanei oia ma ka lima akau o ka mea hune, E hoopakele i kona uhane mai ka poe hoohewa ia ia.
31Because He standeth at the right hand of the needy, to save him from them that judge his soul.
