Halelu 140
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1E HOOPAKELE mai oe ia'u, e Iehova, i ke kanaka hewa; E malama mai hoi ia'u no ke kanaka kolohe:
1(140-1) For the Leader. A Psalm of David. (140-2) Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man; preserve me from the violent man;
2Ka poe i imi hewa ma ka naau; Akoakoa no lakou i na la a pau, e kaua.
2(140-3) Who devise evil things in their heart; every day do they stir up wars.
3Hookala no lakou i ko lakou alelo me he nahesa la; A aia malalo o ko lakou mau lehelehe ka mea make o ka moonihoawa. Sila.
3(140-4) They have sharpened their tongue like a serpent; vipers' venom is under their lips. Selah
4E malama mai oe ia'u, e Iehova, i na lima o ka poe hewa. E kiai mai ia'u no ke kanaka kolohe; No ka mea, manao mai oia e hoohiolo i kuu mau kapuwai.
4(140-5) Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to make my steps slip.
5Na ka poe hookiekie i hana i ka mea hei a me na kaula no'u; A ua uhola lakou i ka upena ma kapa alanui; Ua kau lakou i pahele no'u. Sila.
5(140-6) The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah
6Olelo aku la au ia Iehova, O oe no ko'u Akua; E hoolohe mai oe, e Iehova, i ka leo o ko'u nonoi ana.
6(140-7) I have said unto the LORD: 'Thou art my God'; give ear, O LORD, unto the voice of my supplications.
7E Iehova, ka Haku ikaika o ko'u ola, Ua uhi mai no oe i ko'u poo i ka la o ke kaua.
7(140-8) O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, who hast screened my head in the day of battle,
8Mai haawi mai oe, e Iehova, i na mea a ka poe hewa i makemake ai; Mai kokua mai oe mamuli o kona manao; Ua hookiekie no lakou. Sila.
8(140-9) Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked; further not his evil device, so that they exalt themselves. Selah
9O ke poo o ka poe hoopani mai ia'u, E uhiia lakou i ka luhi o ko lakou mau lehelehe.
9(140-10) As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
10E haule mai na lanahu maluna o lakou; E kiolaia lakou iloko o ke ahi, Iloko hoi o na lua hohonu, I olo ai lakou e ku hou mai iluna.
10(140-11) Let burning coals fall upon them; let them be cast into the fire, into deep pits, that they rise not up again.
11Aole e onipaa ma ka honua ke kanaka olelo wahahee; A e hahai koke no ka hewa i ke kanaka kolohe.
11(140-12) A slanderer shall not be established in the earth; the violent and evil man shall be hunted with thrust upon thrust.
12Ua ike no wau, e kokua mau no o Iehova i ka poe pilikia, A e hoapono hoi i ka poe ilihune.
12(140-13) I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the poor, and the right of the needy.
13Oiaio e mililani aku no ka poe pono i kou inoa; E noho no hoi ka poe hoopololei ma kou alo.
13(140-14) Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto Thy name; the upright shall dwell in Thy presence.
