Psalms 144
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1A Psalm of David. Blessed be the LORD my Rock, who traineth my hands for war, and my fingers for battle;
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.
2My lovingkindness, and my fortress, my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and He in whom I take refuge; who subdueth my people under me.
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.
3LORD, what is man, that Thou takest knowledge of him? or the son of man, that Thou makest account of him?
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?
4Man is like unto a breath; his days are as a shadow that passeth away.
4Ua like ke kanaka me ka mahu; A o kona mau la hoi me he aka la i hele aku.
5O LORD, bow Thy heavens, and come down; touch the mountains, that they may smoke.
5E Iehova, e hookulou mai oe i na lani a iho mai ilalo; E hoopa i na kuahiwi, a e pii aku ka uwahi.
6Cast forth lightning, and scatter them; send out Thine arrows, and discomfit them.
6E hooanapu mai i ka uwila, a e hoopuehu ia lakou: E pana aku i kou mau pua, a e luku ia lakou.
7Stretch forth Thy hands from on high; rescue me, and deliver me out of many waters, out of the hand of strangers;
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;
8Whose mouth speaketh falsehood, and their right hand is a right hand of lying.
8Ka poe olelo wahahee ma ka lakou waha, A o ko lakou lima akau, he lima akau hoopunipuni.
9O God, I will sing a new song unto Thee, upon a psaltery of ten strings will I sing praises unto Thee;
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.
10Who givest salvation unto kings, who rescuest David Thy servant from the hurtful sword.
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.
11Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hand of strangers, whose mouth speaketh falsehood, and their right hand is a right hand of lying.
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;
12We whose sons are as plants grown up in their youth; whose daughters are as corner-pillars carved after the fashion of a palace;
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;
13Whose garners are full, affording all manner of store; whose sheep increase by thousands and ten thousands in our fields;
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.
14Whose oxen are well laden; with no breach, and no going forth, and no outcry in our broad places;
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,
15Happy is the people that is in such a case. Yea, happy is the people whose God is the LORD.
15Pomaikai ka lahuikanaka i noho pela; Pomaikai no ka lahuikanaka mamuli o Iehova, ko kakou Akua.
