Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
World English Bible
1E HOOLOHE mai, e ke Akua, i ko'u leo, i ka'u kamailio ana'ku: E hoomalu i kuu ola nei, i ka makau ana i ka enemi.
1Hear my voice, God, in my complaint. Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
2E huna mai ia'u mai ka ohumu malu ana o ka poe hewa; Mai ka hoohaunaele ana hoi o ka poe lawehala:
2Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the noisy crowd of the ones doing evil;
3Ka poe i hookala i ko lakou alelo me he pahikaua la; A i lena no hoi ko lakou mau pua, he mau olelo awahia;
3who sharpen their tongue like a sword, and aim their arrows, deadly words,
4I pana malu lakou i ka mea pono: Pana wawe no hoi lakou ia ia, aole hoi makau.
4to shoot innocent men from ambushes. They shoot at him suddenly and fearlessly.
5Hooikaika lakou ia lakou iho ma ka mea ino; Kukakuka lakou e waiho malu i na pahele; Olelo no hoi lakou, Owai la na mea e ike ia lakou?
5They encourage themselves in evil plans. They talk about laying snares secretly. They say, “Who will see them?”
6Imi no hoi lakou i na mea hewa; Huli lakou me ka imi ikaika: O ka manao a me ka naau o lakou he hohonu ia.
6They plot injustice, saying, “We have made a perfect plan!” Surely man’s mind and heart are cunning.
7Aka, e paua mai no ke Akua ia lakou me ka pua; E hiki wawe no ko lakou ku ana.
7But God will shoot at them. They will be suddenly struck down with an arrow.
8Pela e hoohaule iho lakou i ko lakou alelo maluna o lakou iho; E holo aku no hoi ka poe a pau i ike ia lakou.
8Their own tongues shall ruin them. All who see them will shake their heads.
9E pau no hoi na kanaka i ka makau, A e hai aku i ka hana a ke Akua; No ka mea, e noonoo naauao lakou i kana hana ana.
9All mankind shall be afraid. They shall declare the work of God, and shall wisely ponder what he has done.
10E olioli ka mea pono ia Iehova, a e hilinai hoi ia ia; A e hauoli no hoi ka poe naau kupono a pau.
10The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall take refuge in him. All the upright in heart shall praise him!
