Halelu 78
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1E NA kanaka o'u, e hoolohe mai oukou i ko'u kanawai; E haliu mai hoi i ko oukou pepeiao i na olelo a ko'u waha.
1Maschil of Asaph. Give ear, O my people, to my teaching; incline your ears to the words of my mouth.
2E hooaka ae au i kuu waha ma na himeni, A e hai aku hoi i na mele kahiko;
2I will open my mouth with a parable; I will utter dark sayings concerning days of old;
3I na mea a kakou i lohe ai, a i ike ai hoi, A ua hai mai no ko kakou poe makua ia kakou.
3That which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us,
4Aole kakou e huna, mai ka lakou poe keiki, A hiki aku i ka hanauna hope loa, I ka hoike ana aku i na halelu no Iehova, A me kona ikaika, a me na mea kupanaha ana i hana'i.
4We will not hide from their children, telling to the generation to come the praises of the LORD, and His strength, and His wondrous works that He hath done.
5Hoopaa oia i mea hoike no ka Iakoba, A kau no hoi oia i kanawai no ka Iseraela, A kauoha mai la i na kupuna o kakou, E ao ae lakou ia mea i ka lakou poe keiki:
5For He established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which He commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children;
6I ike ka hanauna hope loa aku, E ku mai hoi na keiki i hanau mai a hoike i ka lakou mau keiki;
6That the generation to come might know them, even the children that should be born; who should arise and tell them to their children,
7I kau aku ko lakou manaolana i ke Akua, Aole hoi e poina na hana a ke Akua, Aka, e malama i kana mau kauoha:
7That they might put their confidence in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments;
8I like ole lakou me ko lakou poe kupuna, He hanauna ku e, a kipi hoi; He hanauna hooponopono ole i ko lakou naau, A hilinai ole hoi ko lakou naau i ke Akua.
8And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation; a generation that set not their heart aright, and whose spirit was not stedfast with God.
9O na mamo a Eperaima i kahikoia i ke kakaka, Huli hope no lakou i ka la i kaua'i.
9The children of Ephraim were as archers handling the bow, that turned back in the day of battle.
10Aole lakou i malama i ka berita o ke Akua, A hoole lakou i ka hele ma kona kanawai:
10They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in His law;
11Poina ia lakou kana mau hana. Na mea kupanaha hoi ana i hoike mai ai.
11And they forgot His doings, and His wondrous works that He had shown them.
12Hana iho la no oia i na mea kupanaha imua o ko lakou poe makua, Ma ka aina o Aigupita, ma ke kula hoi o Zoana.
12Marvellous things did He in the sight of their fathers, in the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan.
13Mahele ae la oia i ke kai, a alakai mai la ia lakou; Hooku ae la oia i na wai me he puu la.
13He cleaved the sea, and caused them to pass through; and He made the waters to stand as a heap.
14Ma ke ao oia i alakai mai ai ia lakou i ke ao, Ma ka malamalama o ke ahi hoi i na po a pau.
14By day also He led them with a cloud, and all the night with a light of fire.
15Wahi ae la oia i na pohaku ma ka waonahele, Hoohainu mai oia, e like me na ale nui.
15He cleaved rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink abundantly as out of the great deep.
16Hoopuka ae la oia i na wai kahe mailoko mai o ka pohaku, A kahe mai la na wai e like me na muliwai.
16He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run down like rivers.
17Hana hewa hou aku la lakou ia ia, I ke ku e ana i ka Mea kiekie ma ka waoakua.
17Yet went they on still to sin against Him, to rebel against the Most High in the desert.
18Hoao aku la lakou i ke Akua ma ko lakou naau, I ka nonoi ana i ai, no ko lakou kuko iho.
18And they tried God in their heart by asking food for their craving.
19Hoowahawaha aku la lakou i ke Akua, i iho la, E hiki anei i ke Akua ke halii i papaaina ma ka waonahele?
19Yea, they spoke against God; they said: 'Can God prepare a table in the wilderness?
20Aia hoi! hahau ae la oia i ka pohaku, a kahe iho la na wai, A huliamahi mai la na wai kahe; E hiki anei ia ia ke haawi mai i ka ai? A e hoomakaukau hoi i ia no kona poe kanaka?
20Behold, He smote the rock, that waters gushed out, and streams overflowed; can He give bread also? or will He provide flesh for His people?'
21Nolaila, lohe mai la o Iehova a huhu iho la; A hoaia ke ahi maloko o ka Iakoba, A pii ae la ka huhu maluna o ka Iseraela:
21Therefore the LORD heard, and was wroth; and a fire was kindled against Jacob, and anger also went up against Israel;
22No ka mea, aole lakou i manaoio i ke Akua; Aole hoi i paulele i kona kokua ana.
22Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in His salvation.
23Ua kauoha nae oia i na ao, mailuna mai, A ua wahi no hoi i puka ma ka lani,
23And He commanded the skies above, and opened the doors of heaven;
24A ua hooua mai oia maluna o lakou, i mane e ai ai, A ua haawi mai i ka hua palaoa o ka lani na lakou.
24And He caused manna to rain upon them for food, and gave them of the corn of heaven.
25Ai iho la na kanaka i ka ai a ka poe kiekie: Hoouka mai la oia i io na lakou a nui.
25Man did eat the bread of the mighty; He sent them provisions to the full.
26Hoopa mai la oia i ko ka hikina makani ma ka lani: A i kona ikaika, kai mai la oia i ka makani o ke kukuluhema.
26He caused the east wind to set forth in heaven; and by His power He brought on the south wind.
27A hooua mai oia i ka io maluna o lakou me he lepo la, A me na manu hulu, e like me ke one o ke kai.
27He caused flesh also to rain upon them as the dust, and winged fowl as the sand of the seas;
28Hoohaule iho la oia ia mea ma ke kahua hoomoana, A puni hoi ko lakou wahi i noho ai.
28And He let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about their dwellings.
29A ai iho la lakou, a maona loa ae la: Hoopuka mai no oia na lakou i ka mea a lakou i kuko ai.
29So they did eat, and were well filled; and He gave them that which they craved.
30Aole nae lakou i huli, mai ko lakou kuko ana; I ka wa e waiho ana ka ai i ko lakou waha,
30They were not estranged from their craving, their food was yet in their mouths,
31Kau mai la ka huhu o ke Akua maluna o lakou, A luku iho la oia i ko lakou poe ikaika; A hookulou no hoi i ka poe i waeia o ka Iseraela.
31When the anger of God went up against them, and slew of the lustieth among them, and smote down the young men of Israel.
32Aka, ma ia mau mea a pau, hana hewa hou iho la no lakou, Aole i manaoio i kana mau hana kupanaha.
32For all this they sinned still, and believed not in His wondrous works.
33Nolaila, haawi oia i ka noho makehewa ana i ko lakou mau la, A me ka wiwo wale, i ko lakou mau makahiki.
33Therefore He ended their days as a breath, and their years in terror.
34Ina luku oia ia lakou, alaila, nonoi aku lakou ia ia, Huli ae la no hoi, a imi i ke Akua.
34When He slew them, then they would inquire after Him, and turn back and seek God earnestly.
35Hoomanao iho la lakou, o ke Akua ko lakou Pohaku, A o ke Akua kiekie hoi ko lakou Hoolapanai.
35And they remembered that God was their Rock, and the Most High God their redeemer.
36Aka, hoomalimali aku lakou ia ia ma ko lakou waha A wahahee aku no hoi ia ia ma ko lakou alelo.
36But they beguiled Him with their mouth, and lied unto Him with their tongue.
37Aole i kupaa ko lakou naau ma ke Akua, Aole hoi i hilinai i kona berita.
37For their heart was not stedfast with Him, neither were they faithful in His covenant.
38Lokomaikai mai no nae oia, a kala mai i ka hala, Aole i anai mai ia lakou: Hoohuli pinepine aku oia i kona huhu, Aole i hoala i kona inaina a pau.
38But He, being full of compassion, forgiveth iniquity, and destroyeth not; yea, many a time doth He turn His anger away, and doth not stir up all His wrath.
39No ka mea, hoomanao oia, he palupalu lakou, He ea hele wale aku, aole hoi mai.
39So He remembered that they were but flesh, a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again.
40Me he aha la la ko lakou kipikipi ana ia ia ma ka waonahele? A hoonaukiuki ia ia ma ka waoakua?
40How oft did they rebel against Him in the wilderness, and grieve Him in the desert!
41A huli ihope lakou a hoao i ke Akua, Hoehaeha no hoi i ka Mea Hemolele o ka Iseraela.
41And still again they tried God, and set bounds to the Holy One of Israel.
42Aole lakou i hoomanao i kona lima, I ka la ana i hoopakele ai ia lakou i ka pilikia,
42They remembered not His hand, nor the day when He redeemed them from the adversary.
43I ka manawa ana i kau ai i kona mau hoailona ma Aigupita, A me kana hana kupanaha ma ke kula o Zoana:
43How He set His signs in Egypt, and His wonders in the field of Zoan;
44Hoolilo oia i ko lakou muliwai i koko, A me na kahawai hoi, a hiki ole ia lakou ke inu.
44And turned their rivers into blood, so that they could not drink their streams.
45Hoouka ae la oia i ka makika maluna o lakou, A nahu iho la oia ia lakou; A me na rana hoi, a hooki loa oia mau mea ia lakou.
45He sent among them swarms of flies, which devoured them; and frogs, which destroyed them.
46Haawi ae la oia i ka lakou ai na ke poko, A me ka mea a lakou i hooikaika'i na ka uhini.
46He gave also their increase unto the caterpillar, and their labour unto the locust.
47Pepehi mai la oia i ka lakou kumuwaina i ka huahekili, A me ka lakou sukamora i ka hau.
47He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycamore-trees with frost.
48Hoolilo ae la oia i na bipi a lakou i ka huahekili, A me na holoholona a lakou i ka uila.
48He gave over their cattle also to the hail, and their flocks to fiery bolts.
49Hoouka ae la oia maluna o lakou, i ka wela o kona huhu, A me ka ukiuki, a me ka inaina, a me ka popilikia, A hoouna mai no hoi i na elele ino.
49He sent forth upon them the fierceness of His anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, a sending of messengers of evil.
50Hoomakaukau iho la oia i ke ala no kona huhu, Aole ia i kaohi i ko lakou uhane mai ka make mai; Aka, haawi no oia i ko lakou ola i ka mai ahulan;
50He levelled a path for His anger; He spared not their soul from death, but gave their life over to the pestilence;
51A pepehi no hoi i na hiapo a pau o Aigupita, O na poo ikaika ma na halelewa o Hama.
51And smote all the first-born in Egypt, the first-fruits of their strength in the tents of Ham;
52Kai mai la oia i kona poe kanaka me he poe hipa la, A alakai no hoi ia lakou ma ka waonahele me he ohana la.
52But He made His own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock.
53Alakai oia ia lakou i ka malu, i ole ai lakou e makau: Aka, poi mai ke kai maluna o ko lakou poe enemi.
53And He led them safely, and they feared not; but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.
54Hoohele oia ia lakou i kona aina hoano, I keia mauna hoi a kona lima akau i hookumu ai.
54And He brought them to His holy border, to the mountain, which His right hand had gotten.
55Kipaku aku la oia i ko na aina e, mai ko lakou alo aku, Mahele ae la oia ma ke kaula-ana i ka ilina no lakou, A hoonoho iho la i na ohana o ka Iseraela iloko o ko lakou mau halelewa.
55He drove out the nations also before them, and allotted them for an inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.
56Aka, hoao lakou i ke Akua kiekie, a kipi aku la, Aole hoi i malama i kana mau kauoha:
56Yet they tried and provoked God, the Most High, and kept not His testimonies;
57Huli hope lakou, a hoopunipuni e like me na makua o lakou; Ua huli lakou ihope, e like me ke kakaka lauwili.
57But turned back, and dealt treacherously like their fathers; they were turned aside like a deceitful bow.
58Hoonaukiuki lakou ia ia i ko lakou wahi kiekie, A hoolili no hoi ia ia i ko lakou poe kii kalaiia.
58For they provoked Him with their high places, and moved Him to jealousy with their graven images.
59A lohe ke Akua alaila, huhu mai la ia, A hoopailua loa no hoi i ka Iseraela.
59God heard, and was wroth, and He greatly abhorred Israel;
60Nolaila, haalele iho la oia i ka halelewa o Silo, I ka halelole hoi kahi ana i noho ai iwaena o na kanaka,
60And He forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent which He had made to dwell among men;
61A haawi no hoi i kona mea hanohano i ke pio ana, A me kona mea nani iloko o ka lima o ka enemi.
61And delivered His strength into captivity, and His glory into the adversary's hand.
62Hoolilo no oia i kona poe kanaka i ka pahikaua, A huhu mai la i kona hooilina.
62He gave His people over also unto the sword; and was wroth with His inheritance.
63Hoopau no ke ahi i kona poe kanaka ui; Aole nae i kanikau na wahine puupaa.
63Fire devoured their young men; and their virgins had no marriage-song.
64Haule no hoi kona poe kahuna i ka pahikaua; Aole nae i kanikau kona poe wahiue kanemake.
64Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no lamentation.
65Alaila ala ae la ka Haku me he mea la mai kona hiamoe ana, Me he kanaka ikaika la hoi i ona i ka waina.
65Then the Lord awaked as one asleep, like a mighty man recovering from wine.
66Alaila, pehi ae la oia i kona poe enemi ma ko lakou hope; Haawi no ia i hilahila mau loa lakou.
66And He smote His adversaries backward; He put upon them a perpetual reproach.
67Hoowahawaha oia i ka halelewa o Iosepa, Aole hoi i wae i ka ohana o Eperaima:
67Moreover He abhorred the tent of Joseph, and chose not the tribe of Ephraim;
68Aka, wae no ia i ka ohana o Iuda, I ka mauna hoi o Ziona ana i aloha'i.
68But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which He loved.
69Hana oia i kona wahi hoano e like me na wahi kiekie, E like hoi me ka honua ana i hookumu mau loa'i.
69And He built His sanctuary like the heights, like the earth which He hath founded for ever.
70Wae mai la oia ia Davida i kana kauwa, A lawe ae la ia ia, mai na pahipa ae:
70He chose David also His servant, and took him from the sheepfolds;
71Mai ka hahai ana i na hipa mea keiki, ua lawe oia ia ia, E hanai i ka Iakoba, i na kanaka ona, I ka Iseraela hoi, i kona hooilina.
71From following the ewes that give suck He brought him, to be shepherd over Jacob His people, and Israel His inheritance.
72Hanai mai la oia ia lakou e like me ka pono o kona naau; A alakai ae la ia lakou ma ke akamai o kona mau lima.
72So he shepherded them according to the integrity of his heart; and lead them by the skilfulness of his hands.
