Psalms 56
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1(56-1) For the Leader; upon Jonath-elem-rehokim. A Psalm of David; Michtam; when the Philistines took him in Gath. (56-2) Be gracious unto me, O God, for man would swallow me up; all the day he fighting oppresseth me.
1E ALOHA mai ia'u, e ke Akua; No ka mea, e ale mai paha na kanaka ia'u; E paio aua i kela la i keia la, ua hooluhihewa mai oia ia'u.
2(56-3) They that lie in wait for me would swallow me up all the day; for they are many that fight against me, O Most High,
2E ake ko'u mau enemi e ale ia'u i kela la i keia la; No ka mea, he nui no ka poe e kaua ana ia'u, e ka Mea kiekie loa.
3(56-4) In the day that I am afraid, I will put my trust in Thee.
3I ko'u manawa e makau ai, E hilinai aku au ia oe.
4(56-5) In God — I will praise His word — in God do I trust, I will not be afraid; what can flesh do unto me?
4Iloko o ke Akua e mahalo au i kana olelo; O ke Akua ka'u i hilinai aku ai, aole au e makau; Heaha ka ka io o hana mai ai ia'u?
5(56-6) All the day they trouble mine affairs; all their thoughts are against me for evil.
5I kela la i keia la, ua hookahuli lakou i ka'u mau olelo; Pau ko lakou mau manao i ke ku e ia'u no ka hewa.
6(56-7) They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps; according as they have waited for my soul.
6Ua akoakoa lakou, ua pee iho la hoi, Ua nana mai lakou i ko u mau kapuwai, I ko lakou kakali ana i ko'u uhane.
7(56-8) Because of iniquity cast them out; in anger bring down the peoples, O God.
7He pakele anei ko lakou ma ka hewa? I ka huhu, e kiola iho ai i na kanaka, e ke Akua,
8(56-9) Thou has counted my wanderings; put Thou my tears into Thy bottle; are they not in Thy book?
8Ua helu oe i ko'u auwana ana: E ukuki oe i ko'u waimaka i kou omole: Aole anei ia iloko o kau buke?
9(56-10) Then shall mine enemies turn back in the day that I call; this I know, that God is for me.
9Aia kahea aku au, alaila e hoi ihope ko'u enemi: Ua ike au ia mea, no ka mea, mamuli o'u ke Akua.
10(56-11) In God — I will praise His word — in the LORD — I will praise His word —
10Iloko o ke Akua e mahalo mau au i ka olelo: Iloko o Iehova e hoomaikai au i ka olelo:
11(56-12) In God do I trust, I will not be afraid; what can man do unto me?
11Maluna o ke Akua i hilinai aku ai au, aole e makau; Heaha ka ke kanaka e hana mai ai ia'u?
12(56-13) Thy vows are upon me, O God; I will render thank-offerings unto Thee.
12Maluna o'u ka berita ana nou, e ke Akua: E haawi aku au i ka hoolea ia oe.
13(56-14) For thou hast delivered my soul from death; hast Thou not delivered my feet from stumbling? that I may walk before God in the light of the living.
13No ka mea, ua hoopakele oe i ko'u uhane i ka make: Aole anei e hoopakele i ko'u mau kapuwai i ka hina ana? I hele au imua o ke Akua ma ka malamalama o ka poe ola.
