2 Samuel 22
1 And David spoke to the Lord the words of this verse, in the day that the Lord freed him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul.
OLELO aku la o Davida ia Iehova i na huaolelo o keia mele, i ka la a Iehova i hoopakele ae ia ia mai ka lima aku o kona poe enemi a pau, a mai ka lima aku hoi o Saula.
2 And he said: “The Lord is my rock, and my strength, and my Savior.
I aku la ia, O Iehova no kuu pohaku, kuu pakaua, a me kuu hoola;
3 I will hope in him. God is my strong one, my shield, and the horn of my salvation. He lifts me up, and he is my refreshment. You, O my Savior, will free me from iniquity.
O ke Akua o ko'u pohaku, e paulele aku au maluna ona; Oia ko'u palekaua, a me ka pepeiaohao o ko'u ola; Oia ko'u halekiai kiekie, o kuu puuhonua, a me kuu hoola; Ke hoola mai nei oe ia'u, i ke koloheia.
4 I will call upon the Lord, who is praiseworthy; and I will be saved from my enemies.
E hea aku no wau ia Iehova, ka mea pono ke hoonaniia'ku: Pela no wau e hoopakeleia mai ai i ko'u poe enemi.
5 For the pangs of death have encircled me. The torrents of Belial have terrified me.
Hoopuni mai la na ale o ka make ia'u, Hooweliweli mai la ka waikahe o ka poe aia ia'u;
Ua puni au i ko ka po mea e paa ai, A hoohei mai la ia'u na upena o ka make. (Sheol h7585)
7 In my tribulation, I will call upon the Lord, and I will cry out to my God. And he will heed my voice from his temple, and my outcry will reach his ears.
I ko'u popilikia, kahea aku la au ia Iehova. Uwe aku la hoi au i ko'u Akua; A lohe mai la kela i ko'u leo mai kona luakini mai, A komo aku la hoi ko'u kahea ana iloko o kona mau pepeiao.
8 The earth was shaken, and it quaked. The foundations of the mountains were struck together and violently shaken, because he was angry with them.
Alaila nauwe iho la ka honua me ka haalulu; Nee aku la na kumu o na lani, A nauwewe ae la hoi no kona inaina.
9 Smoke ascends from his nostrils, and fire from his mouth will devour; coals have been kindled by it.
Pukoa ae la ka uahi mailoko ae o kona mau pukaihu, Mai loko aku o kona waha i ai aku ai ke ahi: Ua kukuniia na lanahu e ia.
10 He bent down the heavens, and it descended; and a fog was beneath his feet.
Hoohaahaa iho la oia i na lani, a iho mai la, Malalo ae o kona mau wawae ka pouli.
11 And he climbed upon the cherubim, and he flew; and he slid upon the wings of the wind.
Holo ae la kela maluna o kekahi keruba, a lele ae la no hoi ia; Ua ikea no hoi oia maluna o na eheu o ka makani.
12 He set darkness as a hiding place around himself, with waters sifted from the clouds of the heavens.
O ka pouli i puni mai ia ia, oia kana i hoolilo ai i wahi noho nona, O na wai akoakoa i na ao eleele o ka lani.
13 By means of the brightness of his glance, coals of fire were kindled.
Noloko o ka olinolino imua ona, ua kuniia na lanahu ahi.
14 The Lord will thunder from heaven; and the Most High will utter his voice.
Hoohekili mai la o Iehova mai ka lani mai, A hoopoha mai la hoi ka Mea kiekie loa i kona leo.
15 He shot arrows, and he scattered them; lightning, and he consumed them.
Pana mai la ia i na pua, a hoopuehu ia lakou, I na uila hoi a hooauhee aku la ia lakou.
16 And the overflow of the sea appeared, and the foundations of the globe were revealed, at the rebuke of the Lord, at the exhale of the breath of his fury.
Alaila ua ikea na kaha o ke kai, Ua hoikeia mai no hoi na kumu o ka honua, I ka papa ana mai o Iehova, I ka nou ana mai o ka hanu o kona mau puka ihu.
17 He sent from on high, and he took me up. And he drew me out of many waters.
Kii mai la oia mai luna mai, lalau mai la ia'u; Unuhi ae la hoi ia'u mailoko mai o na wai nui:
18 He freed me from my most powerful enemy and from those who had hated me. For they were too strong for me.
Hoopakele ae hoi oia ia'u i ko'u enemi ikaika, A me ka poe i inaina mai ia'u: No ka mea, ua oi aku ko lakou ikaika i ko'u.
19 He went before me in the day of my affliction, and the Lord became my firmament.
Haule mai la lakou maluna o'u i ko'u la popilikia, Aka, ua kokua mai o Iehova ia'u.
20 And he led me out to a wide-open place. He freed me, because I was pleasing to him.
Lawe ae la hoi oia ia'u i kahi akea; Hoopakele ae la ia ia'u, no kona makemake mai ia'u.
21 The Lord will reward me according to my justice. And he will repay me according to the cleanness of my hands.
Uku mai la o Iehova ia'u e like me ko'u pono: Ua hoihoi mai oia ia'u e like me ka maemae o ko'u mau lima.
22 For I have kept to the ways of the Lord, and I have not acted impiously before my God.
No ka mea, ua malama aku au i na aoao o Iehova, Aole hoi au i hele hewa aku mai ko'u Akua aku.
23 For all his judgments are in my sight. And I have not removed his precepts from me.
Mamua hoi o'u kana mau olelo hoopono a pau; Aole hoi au i haalele aku i kana mau kauoha.
24 And I shall be perfect with him. And I shall guard myself from my own iniquity.
Ua kupono hoi au imua ona, A ua malama au ia'u iho i kuu hewa.
25 And the Lord will recompense me according to my justice, and according to the cleanness of my hands in the sight of his eyes.
Nolaila i uku mai ai o Iehova ia'u e like me ko'u pono; E like me ko'u maemae ana imua o kona mau maka.
26 With the holy one, you will be holy, and with the strong one, you will be perfect.
I ka mea lokomaikai e hoike mai no oe ia oe iho he lokomaikai; I ke kanaka hoopono e hoike mai no oe ia oe iho he pono.
27 With the elect one, you will be elect, and with the perverse one, you will be perverse.
I ka mea maemae e hoike mai no oe ia oe iho he maemae; A i ka mea hookekee e hoike mai no oe ia oe iho he oluolu ole.
28 And you will bring to salvation the poor people, and you will humble the exalted with your eyes.
E hoola auanei oe i ka poe i hooluhiia; Aka, ke nana mai nei kou mau maka i ka poe hookiekie, e hoohaahaa iho ai.
29 For you are my lamp, O Lord. And you, O Lord, will illuminate my darkness.
No ka mea, o oe no ko'u kukui, e Iehova: A e hoomalamalama mai no o Iehova i ko'u pouli.
30 For in you, I will run girded. In my God, I will leap over the wall.
Ma ou la wau i wahi ae i ka poe kaua; Ma ko'u Akua wau i lehai aku ai maluna o ka pa pohaku.
31 God, his way is immaculate; the eloquence of the Lord is an exacting fire. He is the shield of all who hope in him.
A o ke Akua, ua hemolele kona aoao; Ua maemae ka olelo a Iehova; He palekaua ia no ka poe a pau e paulele maluna ona.
32 Who is God except the Lord? And who is strong except our God?
Owai la ke Akua ke ole o Iehova? Owai hoi ka pohaku ke ole ko kakou Akua?
33 God, he has girded me with fortitude, and he has made my way perfect:
O ke Akua no ko'u ikaika a me ko'u mana; Ke hoopololei nei oia i ko'u alanui.
34 making my feet like the feet of the stag, and stationing me upon my exalted places,
Ke hoomama nei oia i ko'u mau wawae e like me na wawae dia; Me ka hoonoho ia'u ma ko'u mau wahi kiekie.
35 teaching my hands to do battle, and making my arms like a bow of brass.
Ke ao mai nei oia i kuu mau lima e kaua; I uhaiia'i e ko'u lima ke kakaka keleawe.
36 You have given me the shield of your salvation. And your mildness has multiplied me.
Ua haawi mai hoi oe i kou paku e ola'i; A o kou ahonui ka i hoonui mai ia'u.
37 You will enlarge my steps under me, and my ankles will not fail.
Ua hooakea oe i ko'u mau kapuwai malalo iho o'u: Aole hoi i pahee ko'u mau wawae.
38 I will pursue my enemies, and crush them. And I will not turn back, until I consume them.
Ua alualu aku au i ko'u poe enemi, A ua luku aku au ia lakou; Aole au i hoi mai a pau e lakou ia'u i ka make.
39 I will consume them and break them apart, so that they cannot rise up; they will fall under my feet.
Hoopau aku la au ia lakou, me ka pepehi iho; Aole i hiki ia lakou ke ku ae: Aia, ua hina lakou malalo iho o ko'u mau wawae.
40 You have girded me with strength for the battle. Those who resisted me, you have bent down under me.
Ua kakoo mai oe ia'u i ka ikaika e kaua ai; Ua hookulou iho oe malalo o'u i ka poe i ku e mai ia'u.
41 You have caused my enemies to turn their back to me; they have hatred for me, and I shall destroy them.
Ua haawi mai oe ia'u i na a-i o ko'u poe enemi, I luku aku ai au i ka poe inaina mai ia'u.
42 They will cry out, and there will be no one to save; to the Lord, and he will not heed them.
Leha ae lakou, aohe hoi mea e ola'i; Ia Iehova hoi, aole nae ia i hoolohe mai.
43 I will wipe them away like the dust of the earth. I will break them apart and crush them, like the mud of the streets.
Alaila pakuikui aku au ia lakou a okaoka me he lepo la o ka honua. A hehi iho la au ia lakou a like me ka nenelu o ke alanui; A hoopepe iho la au ia lakou.
44 You will save me from the contradictions of my people. You will preserve me to be the head of the Gentiles; a people I do not know shall serve me.
Ua hoopakele mai hoi oe ia'u i ka paio ana o ko'u poe kanaka, Ua malama mai oe ia'u i poo no na kanaka e: E hookauwa mai na'u ka lahuikanaka a'u i ike ole ai.
45 The sons of foreigners, who will resist me, at the hearing of the ear they will be obedient to me.
E hoolohe mai no auanei ia'u na kanaka e, I ka lohe o ka pepeiao, e malama koke mai no lakou ia'u.
46 The foreigners flowed away, but they will be drawn together in their anguishes.
E mae aku no na kanaka e, E makau hoi lakou ma ko lakou wahi paa.
47 The Lord lives, and my God is blessed. And the strong God of my salvation shall be exalted.
Ke ola nei o Iehova, e hoomaikaiia ko'u pohaku; E hapaiia'ku hoi ke Akua o kuu pohaku e ola'i.
48 God gives me vindication, and he casts down the peoples under me.
O ke Akua ke hoopai aku no'u, Me ka hoolilo i na kanaka malalo iho o'u.
49 He leads me away from my enemies, and he lifts me up from those who resist me. You will free me from the iniquitous man.
Oia ke hoopakele ia'u i ko'u poe enemi: Oia hoi ka i hookiekie ae ia'u maluna o ka poe i ku e mai ia'u; Ua hoola mai oe ia'u i ke kanaka hoino.
50 Because of this, I will confess to you, O Lord, among the Gentiles, and I will sing to your name:
Nolaila au e hoalohaloha aku ai ia oe, e Iehova, mawaena o na kanaka e. E mele hoomaikai aku au i kou inoa.
51 magnifying the salvation of his king, and showing mercy to David, his Christ, and to his offspring forever.”
Oia ka halekiai no kana alii: Ua aloha mai ia i kana mea poni, Ia Davida me kana poe mamo, a mau loa aku.
