Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
World English Bible
1E HOOPAKELE mai oe ia'u, e Iehova, i ke kanaka hewa; E malama mai hoi ia'u no ke kanaka kolohe:
1Deliver me, LORD, from evil men. Preserve me from violent men:
2Ka poe i imi hewa ma ka naau; Akoakoa no lakou i na la a pau, e kaua.
2those who devise mischief in their hearts. They continually gather themselves together for war.
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.
3They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent. Viper’s poison 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.
4LORD, keep me from the hands of the wicked. Preserve me from the violent men who have determined to trip my feet.
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.
5The proud have hidden a snare for me, they have spread the cords of a net by the path. They have set traps 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.
6I said to the LORD, “You are my God.” Listen to the cry of my petitions, LORD.
7E Iehova, ka Haku ikaika o ko'u ola, Ua uhi mai no oe i ko'u poo i ka la o ke kaua.
7LORD, the Lord, the strength of my salvation, you have covered 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.
8LORD, don’t grant the desires of the wicked. Don’t let their evil plans succeed, or they will become proud. Selah.
9O ke poo o ka poe hoopani mai ia'u, E uhiia lakou i ka luhi o ko lakou mau lehelehe.
9As for the head of those who surround me, 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.
10Let burning coals fall on them. Let them be thrown into the fire, into miry pits, from where they never rise.
11Aole e onipaa ma ka honua ke kanaka olelo wahahee; A e hahai koke no ka hewa i ke kanaka kolohe.
11An evil speaker won’t be established on the earth. Evil will hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
12Ua ike no wau, e kokua mau no o Iehova i ka poe pilikia, A e hoapono hoi i ka poe ilihune.
12I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and justice for the needy.
13Oiaio e mililani aku no ka poe pono i kou inoa; E noho no hoi ka poe hoopololei ma kou alo.
13Surely the righteous will give thanks to your name. The upright will dwell in your presence.
