Halelu 101

1 E OLI no wau i ka lokomaikai, a me ka hoopono; Ia oe no wau, e Iehova, e hoolea aku ai.

A psalm of David. I will sing of covenant faithfulness and justice; to you, Yahweh, I will sing praises.

2 E hana naauno no wau ma ka aoao o ka pono. Ahea la oe e hele mai ai ia'u? E holoholo no wau maloko o ko'u hale, Me ka pono o ko'u naau.

I will walk in the way of integrity. Oh, when will you come to me? I will walk with integrity within my house.

3 Aole au e kau i ka hewa imua o ko'u mau maka; Ua inaina aku au i ka mea hana ino, Aole ia e pili mai ia'u.

I will not put wrongdoing before my eyes; I hate worthless evil; it will not cling to me.

4 E haalele anauei ka naau kekee ia'u, Aole au e ike aku i ke kanaka hewa.

Perverse people will leave me; I am not loyal to evil.

5 O ka mea ahiahi malu i kona hoalauna, Oia ka'u e hooki aku; O ka mea maka hookiekie, a naau hookano hoi, Aole au e hoomanawanui ia ia.

I will destroy whoever secretly slanders his neighbor. I will not tolerate anyone who has a proud demeanor and an arrogant attitude.

6 Aia uo ko'u mau maka ma ka poe oiaio o ka aina, I noho mai ai lakou me au. O ka mea hele ma ka aoao o ka pono, Nana no e hookauwa mai na'u.

I will look to the faithful of the land to sit at my side. Those who walk in the way of integrity may serve me.

7 Aole e noho iloko o ko'u hale ka mea hana hoopunipuni; Aole e noho ma ko'u alo, ka mea olelo wahahee.

Deceitful people will not remain within my house; liars will not be welcome before my eyes.

8 E hooki koke no wau i ka poe hewa a pau o ka aina, I hoopau wau i ka poe hana hewa a pau, Mai ke kulanakauhale o Iehova aku.

Morning by morning I will destroy all the wicked from the land; I will remove all evildoers from the city of Yahweh.
