Tingtoeng 82

1 Asaph kah Tingtoenglung Pathen tah Pathen kah hlangboel khuiah pai tih pathen rhoek lakli ah lai a tloek.

A psalm of Asaph. God has taken his stand in the divine assembly: in the midst of the gods he holds judgment.

2 Me hil nim dumlai na tang sak uh vetih halang rhoek kah maelhmai na dan uh ve? (Selah)

“How long will you crookedly judge, and favor the wicked? (Selah)

3 Tattloel neh cadah te laitloek pah lamtah mangdaeng neh aka vawtthoek te tang sak.

Do right by the weak and the orphan, acquit the innocent poor.

4 Tattloel neh khodaeng te hlawt lamtah halang rhoek kut khui lamkah huul lah.

Rescue the weak and the needy, save them from the hand of the wicked.

5 Tamyin khuiah pongpa uh tih diklai kah a yung boeih a tuen khaw ming uh pawt tih yakming uh pawh.

“They have neither knowledge nor insight, in darkness they walk to and fro, while the earth’s foundations totter.

6 Nangmih tah pathen rhoek neh Khohni ca rhoek ni. Nangmih boeih taengah kamah loh ka thui coeng.

It was I who appointed you gods, children of the Most High all of you.

7 Tedae hlang bangla na duek uh vetih mangpa pakhat bangla na cungku uh ni.

Yet like mortals you will surely die, you will fall like any prince.”

8 Namtom rhoek boeih te namah loh na pang coeng dongah Pathen aw thoo lamtah diklai he laitloek thil laeh.

Arise, O God, judge the earth, for all nations are yours by inheritance.
