Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens!
1E IEHOVA, e ko makou Haku, Kai ka hemolele o kou inoa ma ka honua a pau! Ua hohola oe i kou nani maluna o na lani.
2From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.
2Noloko ae o ka waha o na keiki hou a me na mea omo, I hoomakaukau ai oe i ka hoolea no kou poe enemi, I pilipu ia oe ka enemi, a me ka mea hoomaau.
3When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained,
3I ko'u manao ana'ku i kou mau lani, ka hana o kou mau lima, I ka mahina a me na hoku au i hooponopono mai ai;
4what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him?
4Heaha ke kanaka i manao mai ai oe ia ia? A o ke keiki a ke kanaka hoi i ike mai ai oe ia ia?
5For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honor.
5Ua hana iho oe ia ia malalo iho o ka poe anela, Ua kau mai oe ia ia i ka nani a me ka mahalo i lei nona;
6You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet:
6Ua hoolilo oe ia ia i haku no na mea a kou mau lima i hana'i; Nau no i waiho na mea a pau malalo ae o kona mau wawae:
7All sheep and cattle, yes, and the animals of the field,
7O na hipa, a me na bipi a pau, Oia, me na holoholona o ke kula;
8the birds of the sky, the fish of the sea, and whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
8O na manu o ka lewa, a me na ia o ke kai, A me na mea a pau e holo ana ma na ala o ka moana.
9LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
9E IEHOVA, e ko makou Haku, Kai ka hemolele o kou inoa ma ka honua a pau!
