Halelu 50
1 U A olelo mai no ke Akua mana, o Iehova, Ua kahea mai oia i ka honua mai ka hikina a ka la a i ke komohana.
A Psalm. Of Asaph. The God of gods, even the Lord, has sent out his voice, and the earth is full of fear; from the coming up of the sun to its going down.
2 Mai loko mai o Ziona ka hemolele o ka nani, I hoomalamalama mai ai ke Akua.
From Zion, most beautiful of places, God has sent out his light.
3 E hele mai ana no ko kakou Akua, aole e noho wale: E ai no hoi ke ahi imua ona. A e ikaika mai ka ino a puni ia.
Our God will come, and will not keep quiet; with fire burning before him, and storm-winds round him.
4 E kahea oia i ka lani mai luna mai, A i ka honua hoi, e hooponopono oia i kona poe kanaka.
His voice will go out to the heavens and to the earth, for the judging of his people:
5 E houluulu mai oukou i ko'u mau haipule io'u nei, I ka poe i berita mai me au nei ma ka mohai.
Let my saints come together to me; those who have made an agreement with me by offerings.
6 E hoike hoi ka lani i kona pono; No ka mea, o ke Akua oia ka Lunakanawai. (Sila)
And let the heavens make clear his righteousness; for God himself is the judge. (Selah)
7 E hoolohe mai, e ko'u poe kanaka, a e olelo aku au; E Iseraela, a e hoike ku e au ia oe; Owau no ke Akua, kou Akua no.
Give ear, O my people, to my words; O Israel, I will be a witness against you; I am God, even your God.
8 Aole au e hoahewa ia oe no kou mau alana, A me kou mau mohaikuni i mau imua o ko'u alo.
I will not take up a cause against you because of your offerings, or because of your burned offerings, which are ever before me.
9 Aohe bipi kane ka'u e lawe ai mai loko mai o kou hale; Aole hoi kao kane mai loko mai o kou mau pa holoholona:
I will take no ox out of your house, or he-goats from your flocks;
10 No ka mea, na'u no na holoholona a pau o ka ululaan, A me na holoholona laka maluna o na puu he tausani.
For every beast of the woodland is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills.
11 Ua ike au i na manu a pau o na mauna; No'u no hoi na holoholona o ke kula.
I see all the birds of the mountains, and the beasts of the field are mine.
12 Ina i pololi au, aole au e hai aku ia oe; No ka mea, no'u no ke ao nei a me kona mea e piha ai.
If I had need of food, I would not give you word of it; for the earth is mine and all its wealth.
13 E ai anei au i ka io o na bipikane? E inu anei au i ke koko o na hipa kane?
Am I to take the flesh of the ox for my food, or the blood of goats for my drink?
14 E mohai i ka hoomaikai ana i ke Akua; A e haawi i ka mea kiekie loa i kau mea i hoohiki ai nona:
Make an offering of praise to God; keep the agreements which you have made with the Most High;
15 A e kahea mai ia'u i ka la popilikia; A e hoopakele au ia oe, a e hoonani mai no hoi oe ia'u.
Let your voice come up to me in the day of trouble; I will be your saviour, so that you may give glory to me.
16 Aka, ke olelo nei ke Akua i ka mea hewa, Heaha kau e hai aku ai i ko'u mau kanawai? A e lawe ai i kuu berita ma kou waha?
But to the sinner, God says, What are you doing, talking of my laws, or taking the words of my agreement in your mouth?
17 No ka mea, he hoowahawaha kou i ke aoia'na; A ke kiola nei oe i ka'u olelo mahope aku ou.
Seeing that you have no desire for my teaching, turning your back on my words.
18 A i kou wa i ike ai i ka aihue, ua ae pu oe me ia: Ua lawe pu oe me na mea moe kolohe.
When you saw a thief, you were in agreement with him, and you were joined with those who took other men's wives.
19 Ke haawi nei oe i kou waha i ka ino, A ke hookui nei kou alelo i ka hoopunipuni.
You have given your mouth to evil, your tongue to words of deceit.
20 Ke noho nei oe me ka hoino i kou hoahanou; Ke aki wale nei oe i ke keiki a kou makuwahine.
You say evil of your brother; you make false statements against your mother's son.
21 Oia na mea au i hana'i, a hookuli hoi au; Manao iho la oe, he mea like loa au me oe; Aka, e hoahewa au ia oe, a e hoonohonoho pono imua o kou alo.
These things have you done, and I said nothing; it seemed to you that I was such a one as yourself; but I will make a protest against you, and put them in order before your eyes.
22 E hoomanao oukou i keia, ano, e ka poe hoopoina i ke Akua, O haehae aku au, aole hoi he mea e ola'i.
Now keep this in mind, you who have no memory of God, for fear that you may be crushed under my hand, with no one to give you help:
23 O ka mea mohai i ka hoolea no'u oia ke hoonani mai ia'u: O ka mea hoopono i kona hele ana o ka'u ia e hoike ai i ke ola o ke Akua.
Whoever makes an offering of praise gives glory to me; and to him who is upright in his ways I will make clear the salvation of God.
