Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Misery is mine! Indeed, I am like one who gathers the summer fruits, as gleanings of the vineyard. There is no cluster of grapes to eat. My soul desires to eat the early fig.
1A UWE ia'u! no ka mea, ua like au me ka ohi ai ana o ke kau, E like me na koena huawaina o ka ohi ana: Aohe huhui e ai ai; makemake iho la kuu naau i ka hua fiku mua.
2The godly man has perished out of the earth, and there is no one upright among men. They all lie in wait for blood; every man hunts his brother with a net.
2Ua nalo ka mea lokomaikai mai ka aina aku: Aohe mea pono iwaena o na kanaka; Ke hoohalua nei lakou a pau no ke koko: Hoohei iho lakou, o kela mea keia mea i kona hoahanau, i ka upena.
3Their hands are on that which is evil to do it diligently. The ruler and judge ask for a bribe. The powerful man dictates the evil desire of his soul. Thus they conspire together.
3Hana hewa ikaika hoi lakou me na lima; Noi aku ka luna, a me ka lunakanawai i uku: A o ke kanaka nui, oia ke hoike aku i ka makemake o kona naau; Pela no lakou e huikau ai ia mea.
4The best of them is like a brier. The most upright is worse than a thorn hedge. The day of your watchmen, even your visitation, has come; now is the time of their confusion.
4O ka mea maikai o lakou ua like me ka laau ooi; A o ka mea pono, ua oioi ia mamua o ka palaau oioi. O ka la o kou poe kiai, a o kou hoopai ana, e hiki mai no ia; Ano e hiki mai ai ko lakou popilikia.
5Don’t trust in a neighbor. Don’t put confidence in a friend. With the woman lying in your embrace, be careful of the words of your mouth!
5Mai hilinai oukou i ka makamaka, Mai paulele i ka hoalauna: E hoopaa i ka puka o kou waha mai ka mea e moe ana ma kou poli.
6For the son dishonors the father, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.
6No ka mea, hoowahawaha ke keikikane i kona makuakane, Ku e mai ke kaikamahine i kona makuwahine, O ka hunonawahine i kona makuahunowaiwahine, O na enemi o ke kanaka, o na kanaka no ia o kona hale iho.
7But as for me, I will look to the LORD. I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me.
7A e nana aku au ia Iehova: E kali aku au i ke Akua o kuu ola; E hoolohe mai ko'u Akua ia'u.
8Don’t rejoice against me, my enemy. When I fall, I will arise. When I sit in darkness, the LORD will be a light to me.
8Mai hauoli oe maluna o'u, e ko'u enemi: No ka mea, a i haule iho au, e ala hou ae no: A i noho au i ka pouli, o Iehova ka malamalama no'u.
9I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against him, until he pleads my case and executes judgment for me. He will bring me out to the light. I will see his righteousness.
9E hoomanawanui no au i ka inaina o Iehova, No ka mea, ua hana hewa no au ia ia, A hoapono mai ia i ka'u mea, A e hoopai aku no ia no'u; A lawe mai no ia ia'u iwaho i ka malamalama, A e ike aku au i kona pono.
10Then my enemy will see it, and shame will cover her who said to me, “Where is the LORD your God?” My eyes will see her. Now she will be trodden down like the mire of the streets.
10A e ike kou enemi ia mea, A e uhi mai ka hilahila i ka mea i olelo mai ai ia'u, Auhea o Iehova kou Akua? E ike auanei ko'u mau maka ia ia: Ano e hehiia oia ilalo, e like me ka lepo o na alanui.
11A day to build your walls! In that day, he will extend your boundary.
11I ka la e hanaia'i kou mau papohaku, Ia la e lawe loa ia'ku ke kanawai.
12In that day they will come to you from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea, and mountain to mountain.
12Ia la e hele mai ia i ou la mai Asuria mai, a i Aigupita, A mai Aigupita a ka muliwai, A mai ke kai a ke kai, A mai ka mauna a ka mauna.
13Yet the land will be desolate because of those who dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.
13Aka, e lilo ka aina i neoneo no ka poe e noho ana iloko, A no ka hua o ka lakou mau hana.
14Shepherd your people with your staff, the flock of your heritage, who dwell by themselves in a forest. Let them feed in the middle of fertile pasture land, in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
14E hanai oe i kou poe kanaka me kou kookoo, Ka poe o kou hooilina, ka poe e noho mehameha ana ma ka ululaau, iwaena o Karemela: E ai lakou ma Basana, a ma Gileada, e like me ka manawa kahiko.
15“As in the days of your coming out of the land of Egypt, I will show them marvelous things.”
15E like me na la o kou puka ana, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, E hoike aku au ia ia i na mea kupanaha.
16The nations will see and be ashamed of all their might. They will lay their hand on their mouth. Their ears will be deaf.
16E ike mai na lahuikanaka, a e hilahila no ko lakou ikaika a pau; A e kau lakou i ka lima maluna o ka waha, E kuli hoi ko lakou mau pepeiao.
17They will lick the dust like a serpent. Like crawling things of the earth, they will come trembling out of their dens. They will come with fear to the LORD our God, and will be afraid because of you.
17E palu lakou i ka lepo me he nahesa la, E kolo lakou mai ka lakou mau lua mai, e like me na mea kolo o ka honua, E weliweli lakou ia Iehova ko kakou Akua, A e makau lakou nou.
18Who is a God like you, who pardons iniquity, and passes over the disobedience of the remnant of his heritage? He doesn’t retain his anger forever, because he delights in loving kindness.
18Owai la ke Akua e like me oe, e kala ana i ka hewa, A e maalo ae ana i ka hala o ke koena o kona hooilina? Aole ia e hoomau loa aku i kona inaina, No ka mea, ke makemake nei no ia i ke aloha.
19He will again have compassion on us. He will tread our iniquities under foot. You will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
19E hoi hou mai no ia, a e aloha mai no ia ia kakou; A hehi ilalo no ia i ko kakou mau hewa; A e hoolei aku oe i ko lakou hewa a pau iloko o ka hohonu o ke kai.
20You will give truth to Jacob, and mercy to Abraham, as you have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.
20A e haawi mai no oe i ka oiaio ia Iakoba, a me ka lokomaikai ia Aberahama, Ka mea au i hoohiki ai i ko makou mau kupuna mai ka wa kahiko mai.
