Halelu 14

1 I IHO la ka aia iloko o kona naau, Aohe Akua. Ua pau lakou i ka hewa; Ua hana lakou i na hana ino; Aohe mea nana e hana maikai.

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

2 Ua nana mai la o Iehova mai ka lani mai i na keiki a kanaka, I ike mai i kekahi mea naauao paha i imi i ke Akua.

The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.

3 Ua pau lakou i ke kapae. Ua pau pu lakou i ka paumaele; Aohe mea nana i hana pono, aole akahi.

They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

4 Aole anei i ike iki ka poe hana hewa a pau? Ka poe i pau ai ko'u poe kanaka i ka aiia, E like me ko lakou ai ana i ka berena, Aole nae i kahea i ka inoa o Iehova.

Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.

5 Makau iho la lakou me ka weliweli; No ka mea, ina no ke Akua mawaena o ka hanauna pono.

There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.

6 Ua hoohilahila oukou i ka manao o ka mea ilihune; No ka mea, o Iehova kona puuhonua.

Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge.

7 Nawai ke ola e haawi mai no ka Iseraela mailoko mai o Ziona? Aia hoihoi mai o Iehova i ke pio ana o kona poe kanaka, E hauoli no o Iakoba, e olioli no hoi o Iseraela.

O that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! when the LORD bringeth back the captivity of his people, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
