Psalms 147
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Hallelujah; for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant, and praise is comely.
1E HALELU aku oukou ia Iehova: No ka mea, he mea maikai ke hoolea aku i ko kakou Akua; No ka mea, he lealea ia, a he mea ku pono ka halelu.
2The LORD doth build up Jerusalem, He gathereth together the dispersed of Israel;
2Kukulu no o Iehova ia Ierusalema; Hoiliili mai no oia i ka poe aea o ka Iseraela.
3Who healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
3Hoomaha mai no oia i ka poe naau haehae, A wahi no hoi oia i ko lakou mau eha.
4He counteth the number of the stars; He giveth them all their names.
4Hoike mai no oia i ka heluna o na hoku; Hea ae no hoi oia ia lakou a pau ma ka inoa.
5Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite.
5He nui no ko kakou Haku, a na nui hoi kona ikaika; A he mea hiki ole ke hai aku i kona ike.
6The LORD upholdeth the humble; He bringeth the wicked down to the ground.
6Hookiekie no o Iehova i ka poe hoohaahaa; A hoohaahaa no oia i ka poe hewa ilalo i ka lepo.
7Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving, sing praises upon the harp unto our God;
7E olioli aku ia Iehova, me ka mililani aku, E hoolea aku i ko kakou Akua ma ka mea kani.
8Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh the mountains to spring with grass.
8Ka Mea i uhi i ka lani i na ao, Ka Mea i hoomakaukau i ka ua no ka honua, Ka Mea i hooulu mai i ka mauu, maluna o na mauna.
9He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.
9Haawi mai no oia i ka ai na ka holoholona, Na ka poe koraka hoi, na ka mea kahea aku ia ia.
10He delighteth not in the strength of the horse; He taketh no pleasure in the legs of a man.
10Aole ia e lealea i ka ikaika o ka lio, Aole ia e hauoli hoi i na wawae o ke kanaka.
11The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear Him, in those that wait for His mercy.
11E lealea no o Iehova i ka poe makau aku ia ia, I ka poe hoi e hoolana ma kona lokomaikai.
12Glorify the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.
12E hiilani ia Iehova, e Ierusalema, E halelu aku i kou Akua, e Ziona.
13For He hath made strong the bars of thy gates; He hath blessed thy children within thee.
13No ka mea, hoopaa no oia i na kaola o kou mau pukapa; Hoomaikai no hoi oia i kau mau keiki iloko ou.
14He maketh thy borders peace; He giveth thee in plenty the fat of wheat.
14Haawi mai no oia i ka malu ma kou mau mokuna, A hoomaona mai ia oe i ka palaoa maikai.
15He sendeth out His commandment upon earth; His word runneth very swiftly.
15Hoouna mai oia i kana mau olelo i ka honua, Holo kiki no kana mau olelo.
16He giveth snow like wool; He scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes.
16Haawi mai no oia i ka hau, me he hulu hipa la, Hoohelelei mai oia i ka hau paa, e like me ka lehu ahi.
17He casteth forth His ice like crumbs; who can stand before His cold?
17Hoohelelei mai oia i kona mau huahekili e like me na huna ai: Owai hoi ka mea hiki ke ku imua o kona anuanu?
18He sendeth forth His word, and melteth them; He causeth His wind to blow, and the waters flow.
18Hoouna mai oia i kana olelo, a hoohehee ia lakou; Hoohuai mai oia i kona makani, a kahe iho la na wai.
19He declareth His word unto Jacob, His statutes and His ordinances unto Israel.
19Hoike mai no oia i kana olelo i ka Iakoba, I kana mau olelopaa hoi, a me kana hooponopono ana i ka Iseraela.
20He hath not dealt so with any nation; and as for His ordinances, they have not known them. Hallelujah.
20Aole ia i hana pela i ko na aina e a pau; O kana hooponopono ana, aole lakou i ike mai ia. E halelu aku oukou ia Iehova.
