Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Be merciful to me, God, for man wants to swallow me up. All day long, he attacks and oppresses 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.
2My enemies want to swallow me up all day long, for they are many who fight proudly against me.
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.
3When I am afraid, I will put my trust in you.
3I ko'u manawa e makau ai, E hilinai aku au ia oe.
4In God, I praise his word. In God, I put my trust. I will not be afraid. What can flesh do to 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?
5All day long they twist my words. 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.
6They conspire and lurk, watching my steps. They are eager to take my life.
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.
7Shall they escape by iniquity? In anger cast down the peoples, God.
7He pakele anei ko lakou ma ka hewa? I ka huhu, e kiola iho ai i na kanaka, e ke Akua,
8You count my wanderings. You put my tears into your container. Aren’t they in your 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?
9Then my enemies shall turn back in the day that I call. I know this: 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.
10In 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:
11I have put my trust in God. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
11Maluna o ke Akua i hilinai aku ai au, aole e makau; Heaha ka ke kanaka e hana mai ai ia'u?
12Your vows are on me, God. I will give thank offerings to you.
12Maluna o'u ka berita ana nou, e ke Akua: E haawi aku au i ka hoolea ia oe.
13For you have delivered my soul from death, and prevented my feet from falling, 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.
