Psalms 45
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1(45-1) For the Leader; upon Shoshannim; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. Maschil. A Song of loves. (45-2) My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter; I say: 'My work is concerning a king'; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
1KE hoohu mai nei ko'u naau i ke mele maikai; Ke hai aku nei au i na mea a'u i hana'i no ke Alii; O ko'u alelo ka peni a me ka mea kakau wikiwiki.
2(45-3) Thou art fairer than the children of men; grace is poured upon thy lips; therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
2Ua oi kou nani mamua o na keiki a kanaka: Ua nininiia ka maikai iloko o kou mau lehelehe; Nolaila, ua hoomaikai mau loa ke Akua ia oe.
3(45-4) Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one, thy glory and thy majesty.
3E kaei oe i kau pahikaua ma kou uha, e ka Mea mana, Me kou nani a me kou hanohano.
4(45-5) And in thy majesty prosper, ride on, in behalf of truth and meekness and righteousness; and let thy right hand teach thee tremendous things.
4A iloko o kou hanohano e holokaa pomaikai ai, No ka oiaio a me ke akahai, a me ka pono; A a ao iho kou lima akau ia oe i na mea weliweli
5(45-6) Thine arrows are sharp — the peoples fall under thee — they sink into the heart of the king's enemies.
5Ua oi aku kou mau pua iloko o ka naau o ko ke alii poe enemi; Hina iho na kanaka malalo iho ou.
6(45-7) Thy throne given of God is for ever and ever; a sceptre of equity is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
6O kou nohoalii, e ke Akua, e mau loa ana no ia: O ka hoailonamoi o kou aupuni. he hoailonamoi pono no ia.
7(45-8) Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
7Makemake no oe i ka pono, A hoowahawaha no oe i ka hewa: Nolaila ke Akua, kou Akua i poni ai ia oe, Ma ka aila olioli maluna o kou mau hoa.
8(45-9) Myrrh, and aloes, and cassia are all thy garments; out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee glad.
8Ke aala pu mai nei kou mau kapa a pau i ka mura, a me ka aloe, a me ke kasia; Noloko mai o na halealii nihoelepani i hoohauoli ai lakou ia oe.
9(45-10) Kings' daughters are among thy favourites; at thy right hand doth stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
9O na kaikamahine a na'lii kekahi iwaena o kou mau wahine hanohano; Ma kou lima akau i ku mai ai ke alii wahine me ke gula noopira.
10(45-11) 'Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house;
10E hoolohe mai, e ke kaikamahine, a e hoomanao, A e haliu mai i kou pepeiao; E hoopoina hoi i kou poe kanaka, a me ka hale o kou makuakane;
11(45-12) So shall the king desire thy beauty; for he is thy lord; and do homage unto him.
11Pela hoi, e makemake nui ai ke alii i kou nani: No ka mea, oia kou Haku; E hoomana aku hoi oe ia ia.
12(45-13) And, O daughter of Tyre, the richest of the people shall entreat thy favour with a gift.'
12O ke kaikamahine o Turo me ka makana; A o ka poe waiwai o na kanaka e imi i ka hooluolu ia oe.
13(45-14) All glorious is the king's daughter within the palace; her raiment is of chequer work inwrought with gold.
13He nani loa maloko ke kaikamahine a ke alii; O kona kapa he gula i ulanaia no ia.
14(45-15) She shall be led unto the king on richly woven stuff; the virgins her companions in her train being brought unto thee.
14E laweia mai oia i ke alii iloko o na kapa hoonionioia; O na kaikamahine kona mau hoanoho, e hahai ana mamuli ona, E lawe pu ia mai lakou ia oe.
15(45-16) They shall be led with gladness and rejoicing; they shall enter into the king's palace.
15Me ka olioli, a me ka hauoli ana e laweia mai lakou: E komo no hoi lakou iloko o ko ke alii halealii:
16(45-17) Instead of thy fathers shall be thy sons, whom thou shalt make princes in all the land.
16Ma ka hakahaka o kou mau makua, malaila auanei kau mau keiki, Au e hoolilo ai i alii ma ka honua a pau.
17(45-18) I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations; therefore shall the peoples praise thee for ever and ever.
17E hoomaikai mau aku au i kou inoa i na hanauna a pau; Nolaila e hoolea na kanaka ia oe a mau loa.
