Halelu 116

1 KE aloha aku nei au ia Iehova, No ka mea, ua hoolohe mai oia i ka leo o ko'u nonoi ana.

I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice [and] my supplications.

2 No ka mea hoi, ua haliu mai kona pepeiao ia'u, Nolaila, e kahea aku au ia ia i ko'u mau la.

Because he hath inclined his ear to me, therefore will I call upon [him] as long as I live.

3 Hoopuni mai na hei o ka make ia'u, A loaa ia'u ka pilikia o ka malu o ka make, A loaa no hoi ia'u ka popilikia, a me ka ehaeha. (Sheol h7585)

The sorrows of death encompassed me, and the pains of hell came upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)

4 Alaila, kahea aku la au i ka inoa o Iehova; Ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e Iehova, E hoopakele mai oe i ko'u uhane.

Then I called upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.

5 He aloha ko Iehova, a he pono no; Ua lokomaikai no hoi ko kakou Akua.

Gracious [is] the LORD, and righteous; yes, our God [is] merciful.

6 Ke malama mai nei o Iehova i ka mea oluolu: Maule no wau, a nana no i hoola mai ia'u.

The LORD preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.

7 E kuu uhane, e hoi oe i kou wahi e hoomaha'i, No ka mea, hana maikai mai o Iehova ia oe.

Return to thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.

8 No ka mea, ua hoopakele mai oe i ko'u uhane i ka make, A me ko'u mau maka, i ka waimaka, A me ko'u mau wawae, i ka hina ana.

For thou hast delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, [and] my feet from falling.

9 E holoholo no wau imua o Iehova, Ma ka honua, kahi o ka poe ola.

I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.

10 Manaoio no wau, nolaila au i olelo aku ai; Pilikia loa no nae au;

I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:

11 I ko'u pioloke ana, olelo ae la au, He poe wahahee na kanaka a pau.

I said in my haste, All men [are] liars.

12 Heaha ka'u e haawi aku ai ia oe, e Iehova, No kou lokomaikai mai a pau ia'u?

What shall I render to the LORD [for] all his benefits towards me?

13 E hapai no wau i ke kiaha o ke ola, A e kahea aku i ka inoa o Iehova.

I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD.

14 E haawi no wau ia Iehova i ko'u mea i hoohiki ai, Imua o kona poe kanaka a pau.

I will pay my vows to the LORD now in the presence of all his people.

15 He mea minamina ia imua o Iehova, Ka make ana o kona poe haipule.

Precious in the sight of the LORD [is] the death of his saints.

16 Aia hoi, e Iehova, owau no kau kauwa, O kau kauwa no wan, a o ke keiki hoi a kau kauwa wahine; Ua wehe mai oe i ko'u mau mea i paa ai.

O LORD, truly I [am] thy servant; I [am] thy servant, the son of thy handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds.

17 E kaunmaha aku au ia oe i ka mohai mililani, A e kahea aku hoi i ka inoa o Iehova.

I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the LORD.

18 E haawi no wau ia Iehova i ko'u mea i hoohiki ai, Imua o kona poe kanaka a pau,

I will pay my vows to the LORD now in the presence of all his people,

19 Ma na kahua o ka hale o Iehova, Mawaena konu ou, e Ierusalema. E halelu aku oukou ia Iehova.

In the courts of the LORD'S house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.
