Psalms 142

1 Maschil. Of David. A prayer when he was in the hole of the rock. The sound of my cry went up to the Lord; with my voice I made my prayer for grace to the Lord.

KAHEA aku la au ia Iehova, i ko'u leo, Me ko'u leo hoi i nonoi aku ai au ia Iehova.

2 I put all my sorrows before him; and made clear to him all my trouble.

Ninini aku la au i ko'u kaniuhu imua ona, A hoike aku la no hoi i ko'u pilikia ma kona alo.

3 When my spirit is overcome, your eyes are on my goings; nets have been secretly placed in the way in which I go.

I ka maule ana o ko'u uhane iloko o'u, Alaila ike pono no oe i ko'u alanui. Ma ke ala a'u i hele aku ai, hana lakou i hei no'u.

4 Looking to my right side, I saw no man who was my friend: I had no safe place; no one had any care for my soul.

Nana aku la au ma ka lima akau, a ike hoi, Aohe mea i ike mai ia'u; Ua pau na wahi e pakele ai; Aohe mea i manao mai i ko'u uhane.

5 I have made my cry to you, O Lord; I have said, You are my safe place, and my heritage in the land of the living.

Kahea aku la au ia oe, e Iehova, I aku la, O oe no ko'u paku, O kuu puu waiwai hoi ma ka aina o ka poe ola.

6 Give ear to my cry, for I am made very low: take me out of the hands of my haters, for they are stronger than I.

E hoolohe mai oe i ko'u uwe ana, no ka mea, ua hoopilikia loa ia au: E hoopakele mai oe ia'u i ka poe hoomaau mai, No ka mea, na oi aku ko lakou ikaika i ko'u.

7 Take my soul out of prison, so that I may give praise to your name: the upright will give praise because of me; for you have given me a full reward.

E hoopuka aku oe i ko'u uhane iwaho o ka hale paahao, I hoomililani aku au i kou inoa; E kaapuni mai ka poe pono ia'u, No ka mea, e hana maikai mai oe ia'u.
