Sam 82

1 Kathutkung: Asaph Cathut teh cathutnaw a kamkhuengnae koe a kangdue teh, cathutnaw lawk a ceng.

A Psalm for Asaph. God stands in the assembly of gods; and in the midst [of them] will judge gods.

2 Nâtotouh ne kânging hoeh lah lawk na ceng awh vaiteh, tamikathoutnaw hah na kapek awh han vai. (Selah)

How long will ye judge unrighteously, and accept the persons of sinners? (Pause)

3 Mathoe hoi naranaw hanlah lawkceng pouh nateh, runae kâhmonaw hoi kavoutnaw hah kânging lah lawkceng awh.

Judge the orphan and poor: do justice to the low and needy.

4 Mathoe hoi kavoutnaw hah rasat awh nateh, tamikathoutnaw kut dawk hoi tâcawt sak awh,

Rescue the needy, and deliver the poor out of the hand of the sinner.

5 Panuek awh hoeh, thai panuek awh hoeh, hmonae koe a kâva awh teh, talaidu pueng teh a kâhuet.

They know not, nor understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be shaken.

6 Nangmouh teh cathutnaw doeh, Lathueng Poung e canaw lah na o awh.

I have said, Ye are gods; and all [of you] children of the Most High.

7 Hatei, tami patetlah na due han, bawi thung dawk e buet touh patetlah na rawp awh han.

But ye die as men, and fall as one of the princes.

8 Oe Cathut thaw haw, talai heh lawkceng haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, miphun pueng heh râw lah na pang han.

Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.
