Psalms 72
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1A Psalm of Solomon. Give the king Thy judgments, O God, and Thy righteousness unto the king's son;
1E HAAWI i kou mau kanawai i ke alii, e ke Akua, A i kau pono hoi i ke keiki a ke alii.
2That he may judge Thy people with righteousness, and Thy poor with justice.
2E hooponopono oia i kou poe kanaka ma ka pololei. A i kou poe haahaa ma ka pono.
3Let the mountains bear peace to the people, and the hills, through righteousness.
3A e halihali mai no na mauna i ka pomaikai i kanaka, A me na puu liilii hoi, ma ka pono.
4May he judge the poor of the people, and save the children of the needy, and crush the oppressor.
4E hooponopono oia i ka poe kaumaha o na kanaka, E hoola oia i na keiki a ka poe ilihune, E hana pepe i ka mea hooluhihewa.
5They shall fear Thee while the sun endureth, and so long as the moon, throughout all generations.
5E weliweli mau lakou ia oe i ka wa o ka la, A i ka luli ana o ka mahina, i na hanauna a pau.
6May he come down like rain upon the mown grass, as showers that water the earth.
6E iho mai no ia e like me ka ua maluna o ka aina mauu i okiia; Me na kulu ua hoi i hoopulu iho i ka honua.
7In his days let the righteous flourish, and abundance of peace, till the moon be no more.
7E mohala ae ka poe pono i kona mau la, A me ka pomaikai nui a e ole loa ka mahina.
8May he have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the River unto the ends of the earth.
8E hoomalu aupuni oia mai ke kai a i ke kai, A mai ka muliwai hoi a i na welelau o ka honua.
9Let them that dwell in the wilderness bow before him; and his enemies lick the dust.
9A imua o kona alo e kulou iho ai ko ka waonahele; A e palu no hoi kona poe enemi i ka lepo.
10The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall render tribute; the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
10E halihali mai na'lii o Taresisa a o na mokupuni i na makana; A e haawi mai no hoi na'lii o Seheba a me Seba i ko lakou mau haawina.
11Yea, all kings shall prostrate themselves before him; all nations shall serve him.
11Oia, e moe iho hoi na'lii a pau imua o kona alo; E pau hoi na lahuikanaka i ka malama ia ia.
12For he will deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper.
12No ka mea, hoopakele no oia i ka mea waiwai ole i kona kahea ana; I ka mea ilihune hoi, a me ka mea nele i ke kokua ole.
13He will have pity on the poor and needy, and the souls of the needy he will save.
13E hookoe mai no oia i ka mea haahaa, a me ka nele, A e hoola hoi i na uhane o ka poe hemahema.
14He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence, and precious will their blood be in his sight;
14E hoopakele oia i ko lakou uhane i ka wahahee a me ka lalau wale: A he mea minamina ko lakou koko i kona mau maka.
15That they may live, and that he may give them of the gold of Sheba, that they may pray for him continually, yea, bless him all the day.
15E ola no ia, a e haawiia nona ke gula no Seheba: E mau ana no ka pule nona; A e hoomaikai no ia i kela la i keia la.
16May he be as a rich cornfield in the land upon the top of the mountains; may his fruit rustle like Lebanon; and may they blossom out of the city like grass of the earth.
16E nui auanei ka palaoa ma ka honua, ma ka piko o na mauna; A e luliluli kona hua e like me Lebanona: A e mohala ae ko ke kulanakauhale me he mauu la o ka honua.
17May his name endure for ever; may his name be continued as long as the sun; may men also bless themselves by him; may all nations call him happy.
17E mau ana no hoi kona inoa; E ulu no kona inoa, a e ole loa ka la: A e pomaikai na kanaka ia ia: E pau hoi na lahuikanaka i ke kapa aku ia ia he pomaikai.
18Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things;
18E hoomaikaiia o Iehova ke Akua, ko Iseraela Akua, Ka mea nana wale no i hana na mea kupaianaha.
19And blessed be His glorious name for ever; and let the whole earth be filled with His glory. Amen, and Amen.
19E hoonani mau loa ia'ku kona inoa ihi, E hoopaapuia ka honua a pau i kona nani; Amene, a Amene.
20The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
20Pau na pule a Davida ke keiki a Iese.
