Psalms 21

1 For the leader. A psalm of David. The king rejoices, Lord, in your might, how he exults because of your help!

E IEHOVA, e hauoli aku ke alii i kou mana; Nani hoi kona olioli ana i kou ola.

2 You have granted to him his heart’s desire, you have not withheld his lips’ request. (Selah)

Ua haawi mai oe ia ia i ka mea a kona naau i makemake ai; Aole oe i hoole i ka mea a kona lehelehe i noi aku ai. (Sila)

3 You came to meet him with rich blessings, you set on his head a golden crown.

A, ua haawi e mai oe ia ia i pomaikai i ka pono; Ua kau mai oe i ka lei gula maemae maluna iho o kona poo.

4 He asked you for life, you gave it – many long days, forever and ever.

Ua noi aku oia ia oe i ola, nau no ia i haawi mai nona; O ke ola loa i ka manawa pau ole.

5 Great is his glory because of your help, honour and majesty you lay upon him.

He nui wale kona nani i kou ola; O ka mahalo, a me ka hanohano kau i kau mai ai maluna iho ona.

6 For you make him most blessed forever, you make him glad with the joy of your presence.

Ua hoopomaikai io mau loa oe ia ia; Ua hoohauoli loa oe ia ia i kou maka.

7 For the king puts always his trust in the Lord; the Most High, in his love, will preserve him unshaken.

No ka mea, na hilinai aku ke alii ia Iehova, No ka lokomaikai o ka Mea kiekie loa e kulanalana ole ai ia.

8 Your hand will reach all your foes, your right hand, all who hate you.

E loaa no i kou lima kou mau enemi a pau; E loaa no i kou lima akau ka poe inaina ia oe.

9 You will make them like a furnace of fire, when you appear, Lord. The Lord will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire will devour them.

E hoohalike no oe ia lakou me he umu ahi la i kou wa e huhu ai; E ale no Iehova ia lakou i kona inaina, e pau hoi lakou i ke ahi.

10 You will sweep their offspring from the earth, their children from humanity.

Nau no ka lakou hua e luku aku, mai ka honua aku, A me ka lakou mamo, mai waena aku o na keiki a kanaka.

11 When they scheme against you and hatch evil plots – they will fail.

No ka mea, ua hoopalahalaha lakou i ka ino nou; Ua kuka lakou i ka manao hewa, aole hoi i hiki.

12 For you aim your bow at their faces, make them turn in flight.

Nolaila, e hoohuli mai oe i ko lakou kua; Ke hoomakaukau oe i na pua i kau mau kaula, i ku pono i ko lakou alo.

13 Be exalted, Lord, in your strength, to your might we shall sing and make music.

E hapaiia'ku oe, e Iehova, i kou ikaika; E oli no hoi makou me ka hoolea aku i kou mana.
