Halelu 130

1 MAILOKO o na wahi hohonu, ua kahea aku au i oe, e Iehova.

“A song of the degrees.” Out of the depths have I called thee, O Lord.

2 E ka Haku e, e hoolohe mai oe i ko'u leo; E haliu mai kou pepeiao i ka leo o ko'u nonoi ana.

Lord, listen to my voice: let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

3 Ina ma ka hala oe e haka pono mai ai, e Iehova, E ka Haku, owai la ka mea e ku.

If thou, Lord, shouldst treasure up iniquities, O Lord, who would be able to stand?

4 Aka, ma ou la ke kala ana o ka hala, I makauia'ku ai oe.

But with thee there is forgiveness, in order that thou mayest be feared.

5 Ke kakali nei au, ke kakali nei ko'u uhane ia Iehova, A ke hoolana nei au ma kana olelo.

I hope for the Lord, my soul doth hope, and for his word do I wait.

6 Ua oi aku ke kakali ana o ko'u uhane i ka Haku, Mamua o ko ka poe kiai kakali ana i ke ao.

My soul [waiteth] for the Lord, more than they that watch for the morning expect the morning.

7 E kakali o ka Iseraela ia Iehova, no ka mea, Me Iehova no ka lokomaikai, a me ia no hoi ka hoolapanai nui wale.

Let Israel wait for the Lord; for with the Lord there is kindness, and with him is redemption in abundance;

8 Nana no e hoolapanai i ka Iseraela, Mailoko aku o ko lakou hewa a pau.

And he wilt surely redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
