Halelu 144
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1E HOOMAIKAIIA o Iehova, ko'u pohaku, Ka mea i ao mai i ko'u mau lima e hoouka, A me ko'u mau manamana lima e kana.
1Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:
2O ko'u mea aloha, a me ko'u puukaua; O ko'u puuhonua, a me ko'u mea e pakele ai; O ko'u palekaua, ka mea a'u e hiliuai ai; Ka mea i hoopio mai i ko'u poe kanaka malalo iho o'u.
2My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.
3E Iehova, heaha ke kanaka, i ike mai ai oe ia ia? A me ke keiki a ke kanaka i manao ai oe la ia?
3LORD , what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son of man, that thou makest account of him!
4Ua like ke kanaka me ka mahu; A o kona mau la hoi me he aka la i hele aku.
4Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away.
5E Iehova, e hookulou mai oe i na lani a iho mai ilalo; E hoopa i na kuahiwi, a e pii aku ka uwahi.
5Bow thy heavens, O LORD , and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
6E hooanapu mai i ka uwila, a e hoopuehu ia lakou: E pana aku i kou mau pua, a e luku ia lakou.
6Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot out thine arrows, and destroy them.
7E kikoo mai oe i kou lima mai luna mai; A e unuhi mai ia'u a e hoopakele hoi ia'u maloko aku o na wai nui, Mai ka lima aku hoi o na keiki malihini;
7Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children;
8Ka poe olelo wahahee ma ka lakou waha, A o ko lakou lima akau, he lima akau hoopunipuni.
8Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
9E ke Akua, e oli aku au i ke oli hou ia oe, Ma ka violaumi he umi na kaula, e hoolea aku ai au ia oe.
9I will sing a new song unto thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto thee.
10Nana no e haawi mai i ke ola no na'lii; Nana no i hoopakele ia Davida i kana kauwa, I ka pahi kaua o ka hewa.
10It is he that giveth salvation unto kings: who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword.
11E unuhi mai oe ia'u, a e hoopakele mai hoi ia'u, I ka lima o na keiki malihini, Ka poe mea waha olelo wahahee, A o ko lakou lima akau, he lima akau hoopunipuni;
11Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood:
12I like ka kakou poe keikikane me na mea kanu, I ulu a nui i ko lakou manawa opiopio: I like hoi ka kakou poe kaikamahine me na pohaku kihi, I anaiia ma ke ano o ka luakini;
12That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace:
13I piha hoi ko lakou halepapaa, E haawi mai ana i mea o kela ano, keia ano; I hanau mai ai ka kakou poe hipa ma na tausani, Ma ka umi tausani hoi ma na alanui.
13That our garners may be full, affording all manner of store: that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets:
14I hapai hoi ka kakou poe bipi; I komo ole kekahi iloko, aole hoi e puka iwaho, A i ole hoi he mea ohumu, ma ko lakou mau alanui,
14That our oxen may be strong to labour; that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets.
15Pomaikai ka lahuikanaka i noho pela; Pomaikai no ka lahuikanaka mamuli o Iehova, ko kakou Akua.
15Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea , happy is that people, whose God is the LORD .
