Halelu 124
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1I NA aole i noho pu o Iehova me kakou, Wahi a ka Iseraela,
1A Song of Ascents; of David. 'If it had not been the LORD who was for us', let Israel now say;
2Ina aole i noho pu o Iehova me kakou, I ka wa i ala ku e mai ai na kanaka ia kakou,
2'If it had not been the LORD who was for us, when men rose up against us,
3Ina ua moni koke mai lakou ia kakou, I ka wela ana o ko lakou huhu ia kakou.
3Then they had swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us;
4Ina ua poipu hoi na wai maluna o kakou, A ua hiki mai ka waikahe maluna o ko kakou uhane:
4Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul;
5Ina ua kahe no hoi ka waiholomoku maluna o ko kakou uhane.
5Then the proud waters had gone over our soul.'
6E hoomaikaiia o Iehova, Ka mea haawi ole ia kakou i waiwai pio i ko lakou niho.
6Blessed be the LORD, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.
7Ua hoopakeleia no ko kakou uhane, Me he manu la, mai ka hei ana aku i ka poe lawaiamanu; Ua moku ka upena a ua hoopakeleia kakou.
7Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we are escaped.
8Aia no ko kakou kokua, maloko o ka inoa o Iehova, Ka mea nana i hana ka lani me ka honua.
8Our help is in the name of the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
