Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, let Israel now say,
1I NA aole i noho pu o Iehova me kakou, Wahi a ka Iseraela,
2if it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us,
2Ina aole i noho pu o Iehova me kakou, I ka wa i ala ku e mai ai na kanaka ia kakou,
3then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their wrath was kindled against us,
3Ina ua moni koke mai lakou ia kakou, I ka wela ana o ko lakou huhu ia kakou.
4then the waters would have overwhelmed us, the stream would have gone over our soul.
4Ina ua poipu hoi na wai maluna o kakou, A ua hiki mai ka waikahe maluna o ko kakou uhane:
5Then the proud waters would have gone over our soul.
5Ina ua kahe no hoi ka waiholomoku maluna o ko kakou uhane.
6Blessed be the LORD, who has not given us as a prey to their teeth.
6E hoomaikaiia o Iehova, Ka mea haawi ole ia kakou i waiwai pio i ko lakou niho.
7Our soul has escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare. The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
7Ua hoopakeleia no ko kakou uhane, Me he manu la, mai ka hei ana aku i ka poe lawaiamanu; Ua moku ka upena a ua hoopakeleia kakou.
8Our help is in the LORD’s name, who made heaven and earth.
8Aia no ko kakou kokua, maloko o ka inoa o Iehova, Ka mea nana i hana ka lani me ka honua.
