Psalms 58
1 For the Leader; Al-tashheth. A Psalm of David; Michtam. Do ye indeed speak as a righteous company? Do ye judge with equity the sons of men?
KE olelo nei auei oukou i ka pono, e ke anaina? Ke hooponopono pololei anei oukou, e na keiki a kanaka?
2 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh out in the earth the violence of your hands.
Ua hana io nae oukou i ka hewa maloko o ko oukou naau: Ke kaupaona nei hoi oukou i ka lawe wale ana o ko oukou mau lima ma ka honua.
3 The wicked are estranged from the womb; the speakers of lies go astray as soon as they are born.
Ua aea wale ka poe hewa mai ka opu mai; Ua auwana lakou mai ka hanau ana, e olelo wahahee ana.
4 Their venom is like the venom of a serpent; they are like the deaf asp that stoppeth her ear;
O ko lakou aa make, ua like ia me ka awaawa make o ka nahesa; Ua like lakou me ka moopetena kuli i papani i kona pepeiao;
5 Which hearkeneth not to the voice of charmers, or of the most cunning binder of spells.
Ka mea e lohe ole no i ka leo o ka poe hoowalewale, E hoowale wale ana me ke akamai loa.
6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth; break out the cheek-teeth of the young lions, O LORD.
E uhai ae i ko lakou mau niho, e ke Akua, iloko o ko lakou waha; E uhai oe i na niho o na liona opiopio, e Iehova.
7 Let them melt away as water that runneth apace; when he aimeth his arrows, let them be as though they were cut off.
E hehee lakou, me he mau wai la e kahe mau ana, Aia lena oia no kana mau pua, E lilo lakou me he mau mea la i okiokiia.
8 Let them be as a snail which melteth and passeth away; like the untimely births of a woman, that have not seen the sun.
Me he pupu la e hehee ana, e hele e aku lakou a pau; Me he mea hanau e la ka wahine, e ike ole lakou i ka la.
9 Before your pots can feel the thorns, He will sweep it away with a whirlwind, the raw and the burning alike.
Mamua o ka wela ana o ka oukou mau ipuhao i ke kakalaioa, E lawe aku oia ia lakou me ka ino makani, I ko lakou ola ana, a i kona huhu.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance; he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.
E hauoli ka mea pono i kona ike ana i ka hoopai ana; E holoi oia i kona mau kapuwai i ke koko o ka mea hewa.
11 And men shall say: 'Verily there is a reward for the righteous; verily there is a God that judgeth in the earth.'
Pela, e olelo ke kanaka, Oiaio, he uku no hoi no ka mea pono: Oiaio hoi, he Akua no e hoopai ana ma ka honua.
