Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1God, why have you rejected us forever? Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture?
1E KE Akua, o ke aha kau mea e mamao mau loa aku ai? No ke aha la e wela mai ai kou huhu i na hipa o kou aina?
2Remember your congregation, which you purchased of old, which you have redeemed to be the tribe of your inheritance: Mount Zion, in which you have lived.
2E hoomanao oe i kou ekalesia au i kuai kahiko loa ai, Ka ohana o kou hooilina au i kuai ai; O keia mauna Ziona kahi i noho ai oe.
3Lift up your feet to the perpetual ruins, all the evil that the enemy has done in the sanctuary.
3E hoeu i kou wawae i ka neoneo mau ana; I na mea a pau a ka enemi i hana hewa ai iloko e kou wahi hoano.
4Your adversaries have roared in the middle of your assembly. They have set up their standards as signs.
4Ua uwo kou poe enemi iloko o na anaina; Ua kau lakou i ko lakou mau hae i hoailona.
5They behaved like men wielding axes, cutting through a thicket of trees.
5Kaulana aku la ke kanaka, E like me kona hapai ana i na koi i na laau paapu.
6Now they break all its carved work down with hatchet and hammers.
6Aka ano, ke wawahi nei lakou i kona mea i kalaiia, Me na koi a me na hamare.
7They have burned your sanctuary to the ground. They have profaned the dwelling place of your Name.
7Ua hoolei lakou i ke ahi iloko o kou wahi hoano, Ua hoohaumia lakou ilalo i ka lepo i ka halelewa o kou inoa.
8They said in their heart, “We will crush them completely.” They have burned up all the places in the land where God was worshiped.
8I iho la lakou ma ko lakou naau, E luku pu kakou ia lakou; Ua hoopau i ke ahi i na halehalawai a pau o ke Akua ma ka aina.
9We see no miraculous signs. There is no longer any prophet, neither is there among us anyone who knows how long.
9Aole kakou i ike i ko kakou mau hoailona; Aole he kaula hou ae; Aohe mea iwaena o kakou i ike i ka loihi ana.
10How long, God, shall the adversary reproach? Shall the enemy blaspheme your name forever?
10E ke Akua, pehea ka loihi o ko ka enemi hoino ana mai? E hoino wale anei ka enemi i kou inoa i ka manawa pau ole?
11Why do you draw back your hand, even your right hand? Take it from your chest and consume them!
11No ke aha la oe i hoihoi aku ai i kou lima, i kou lima akau? E unuhi ae ia mai loko ae o kou poli.
12Yet God is my King of old, working salvation throughout the earth.
12No ka mea, o ke Akua ko'u Alii mai kinohi mai, E hana ana ma ke ola iwaena o ka honua.
13You divided the sea by your strength. You broke the heads of the sea monsters in the waters.
13Hookaawale ae la oe i ke kai me kou ikaika: Wawahi iho la oe i na poo o na kerokodila ma na wai.
14You broke the heads of Leviathan in pieces. You gave him as food to people and desert creatures.
14Ulupa iho la oe i na poo o ka leviatana, A haawi ia ia i ai na na kanaka o ka waonahele.
15You opened up spring and stream. You dried up mighty rivers.
15Hookaawale ae la oe i ke kumuwai me ka muliwai: Hoomaloo iho la oe i na waikahe ikaika.
16The day is yours, the night is also yours. You have prepared the light and the sun.
16Nou no ke ao, nou no hoi ka po: Ua hoomakaukau oe i ka malamalama a me ka la.
17You have set all the boundaries of the earth. You have made summer and winter.
17Ua hoonohonoho oe i na palena a pau o ka honua; Ua hana hoi oe i ka hoilo a me ka makalii.
18Remember this, that the enemy has mocked you, LORD. Foolish people have blasphemed your name.
18E hoomanao oe i keia, ua hoino wale ka enemi, e Iehova, A ua kuamuamu wale na kanaka naaupo i kou inoa.
19Don’t deliver the soul of your dove to wild beasts. Don’t forget the life of your poor forever.
19Mai noho a haawi i ka uhane o kau manu nunu i ka poe ino: Mai hoopoina mau loa i ke anaina o kou poe ilihune.
20Honor your covenant, for haunts of violence fill the dark places of the earth.
20E manao mai oe i ka berita; No ka mea, ua paapu na wahi pouli o ka honua i na wahi e noho ai ka lalauwale.
21Don’t let the oppressed return ashamed. Let the poor and needy praise your name.
21Mai noho a hoi hou ka poe i hooluhihewaia me ka hilahila; Aka, e hoolea aku i kou inoa ka poe ilihune a me ka haahaa.
22Arise, God! Plead your own cause. Remember how the foolish man mocks you all day.
22E ku iluna, e ko Akua, e hakaka i ko'u hakaka: E hoomanao i ko ke kanaka naaupo hoino wale ana ia oe i na la a pau.
23Don’t forget the voice of your adversaries. The tumult of those who rise up against you ascends continually.
23Mai hoopoina i ka leo o kou poe enemi: Ke mahuahua mai nei ka haunaele ana o ka poe ku e ia oe.
