Psalms 85

1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Jehovah, thou hast been favorable unto thy land; Thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.

U A lokomaikai mai oe, e Iehova, i kou aina; Ua hoihoi mai oe i ke pio ana o ka Iakoba.

2 Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people; Thou hast covered all their sin. (Selah)

Ua kala mai oe i ka hewa o kou poe kanaka, Ua uhi mai oe i ko lakou hala a pau. (Sila)

3 Thou hast taken away all thy wrath; Thou hast turned [thyself] from the fierceness of thine anger.

Ua lawe aku oe i kou inaina a pau, Ua huli aku no hoi oe, mai ka wela o kou huhu aku.

4 Turn us, O God of our salvation, And cause thine indignation toward us to cease.

E hoohuli mai oe ia makou, e ke Akua o ko makou ola, A e hooki hoi oe i kou huhu mai ia makou.

5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? Wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?

E huhu mau loa mai anei oe ia makou? E hooloihi aku anei oe i kou huhu ia hanauna aku, ia hanauna aku?

6 Wilt thou not quicken us again, That thy people may rejoice in thee?

Aole anei oe e hoihoi mai i ko makou ola ana? I hauoli ai kou poe kanaka ia oe.

7 Show us thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, And grant us thy salvation.

E hoike mai oe, e Iehova, i kou lokomaikai ia makou, A e haawi mai hoi kou hoola ana na makou.

8 I will hear what God Jehovah will speak; For he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: But let them not turn again to folly.

E hoolohe aku no au i ka mea a ke Akua a Iehova e olelo mai ai; No ka mea, e hai mai no oia i ka malu no kona poe kanaka, a me kona poe haipule: Mai hoi hou nae lakou i ka mea lapuwale.

9 Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him, That glory may dwell in our land.

Oiaio, ua kokoke mai no kona hoola ana i ka poe makau aku ia ia; I noho ka hanohano ma ko kakou aina.

10 Mercy and truth are met together; Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

Ua halawai pu ke aloha me ka oiaio; Ua honi pu no hoi ka pono me ka maluhia.

11 Truth springeth out of the earth; And righteousness hath looked down from heaven.

E ulu mai no ka oiaio mailoko mai o ka honua, A mai ka lani mai hoi e nana mai ai ka pono.

12 Yea, Jehovah will give that which is good; And our land shall yield its increase.

E haawi mai no o Iehova i ka maikai; A e haawi mai no hoi ko kakou aina i kona hua iho.

13 Righteousness shall go before him, And shall make his footsteps a way [to walk in].

E hele ae no ka pono imua o kona alo; A e alakai hoi oia ia kakou ma ke ala o kona mau kapuwai.
