Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Listen to my prayer, God. Don’t hide yourself from my supplication.
1E HALIU mai i ka pepeiao i ka'u pule, e ke Akua, Mai hoonalo ia oe iho mai ka'u nonoi ana aku.
2Attend to me, and answer me. I am restless in my complaint, and moan
2E nana mai ia'u a e hoolohe mai ia'u; Ke u nei au i ko'u manao ana, me ka auwe;
3because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked. For they bring suffering on me. In anger they hold a grudge against me.
3No ka leo o ka enemi, No ka hooluhi hewa ana mai o ka mea hewa: No ka mea, ua hooili mai lakou i ka hewa maluna o'u, A i ka ukiuki ua inaina mai lakou ia'u.
4My heart is severely pained within me. The terrors of death have fallen on me.
4Ua ehaeha loa ko'u naau iloko o'u; A ua haule mai ko ka make mau mea weliweli maluna o'u.
5Fearfulness and trembling have come on me. Horror has overwhelmed me.
5Ua kau mai maluna o'u ka makau a me ka haalulu; Ua popoiia mai au e ka weliweli.
6I said, “Oh that I had wings like a dove! Then I would fly away, and be at rest.
6A olelo iho la au, Owai ka mea e haawi ia'u i mau eheu me he manu nunu la? E lele aku au i kahi e, a e hoomaha iho.
7Behold, then I would wander far off. I would lodge in the wilderness.” Selah.
7Aia hoi e hele kaawale loa aku au, A e noho ma ka waonahele. Sila.
8“I would hurry to a shelter from the stormy wind and storm.”
8Alaila e hoolalelale au i kuu pakele ana, I ka makani nui o ka ino.
9Confuse them, Lord, and confound their language, for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
9E hookae, e Iehova, a hoomokuahana i ka lakou mau alelo: No ka mea, ua ike au i ka hooluhi wale a me ka hakaka ana malok'o o ke kulanakauhale.
10Day and night they prowl around on its walls. Malice and abuse are also within her.
10I ke ao, a me ka po, i holoholo ai lakou maluna o kona mau pa; He kolohe, a he pioloke ka iwaena konu ona.
11Destructive forces are within her. Threats and lies don’t depart from her streets.
11Iwaena konu ona ka hana hewa ana; Aole haalele ka hoopunipuni a me ka wahahee i kona mau alanui.
12For it was not an enemy who insulted me, then I could have endured it. Neither was it he who hated me who raised himself up against me, then I would have hidden myself from him.
12No ka mea, aole he enemi, ka i hoino mai ia'u; Ina pela hiki no ia'u ke hoomanawanui: Aole ka mea inaina mai ia'u ka i hookiekie ku e mai ia'u; Ilaila i pee aku ai au mai ona aku la:
13But it was you, a man like me, my companion, and my familiar friend.
13Aka, o oe no ia, he kanaka e ku like ana me au, Ka'u punahele, a o ko'u hoalauna hoi.
14We took sweet fellowship together. We walked in God’s house with company.
14Ua kamailio oluolu pu kaua, A ua hele pu i ka hale o ke Akua me ka lehulehu.
15Let death come suddenly on them. Let them go down alive into Sheol. For wickedness is among them, in their dwelling.
15E lalau mai ka make ia lakou, E iho koke lakou ilalo i ka malu o ka make; No ka mea, he hewa ko loko o ko lakou mau hale, a iwaena o lakou.
16As for me, I will call on God. The LORD will save me.
16Aka, owau nei la, e kahea aku au i ke Akua; A e hoola mai no o Iehova ia'u.
17Evening, morning, and at noon, I will cry out in distress. He will hear my voice.
17I ke ahiahi, i ke kakahiaka, i ke awakea, e pule aku ai au, A e kahea nui aku au; a e hoolohe mai oia i ko'u leo.
18He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me, although there are many who oppose me.
18Me ka maluhia e hoopakele oia i ko'u uhane i ke kaua mai ia'u; No ka mea, ua nui ka poe me au.
19God, who is enthroned forever, will hear and answer them. Selah. They never change and don’t fear God.
19E hoolohe mai no ke Akua, a e hoohaahaa ia lakou, O ka mea mai kahiko mai. Sila. No ka mea, aohe o lakou luli ana; Nolaila, aole o lakou makau i ke Akua.
20He raises his hands against his friends. He has violated his covenant.
20Ua kikoo oia i kona lima i ka mea e kuikahi ana me ia; Ua uhai oia i kana berita.
21His mouth was smooth as butter, but his heart was war. His words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.
21Ua oi aku ka pahee o kana mau olelo mamua o ko ka bata, Aka, he kaua ko loko o kona naau: Ua oi aku ka oluolu o kana mau olelo i ko ka aila; Aka, he mau pahikaua unuhiia lakou.
22Cast your burden on the LORD and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved.
22E waiho aku i kau mea kaumaha maluna o Iehova, A e Kokua mai oia ia oe: Aole loa ia e waiho mai i ka mea pono e hoonauweia.
23But you, God, will bring them down into the pit of destruction. Bloodthirsty and deceitful men shall not live out half their days, but I will trust in you.
23Aka, e ke Akua, e hoohaahaa iho oe ia lakou i ka lua o ka make: O na kanaka koko a me ka hoopunipuni, aole lakou e ola a pau ka hapalua o ko lakou mau la; Aka, e hilinai aku au ia oe.
