< Psalms 82 >

1 — A Psalm of Asaph. God hath stood in the company of God, In the midst God doth judge.
KE ku mai nei ke Akua iwnena o ke anaina alii; Oia ka i hooponopono iwaena o na akua.
2 Till when do ye judge perversely? And the face of the wicked lift up? (Selah)
Pehea la ka loihi o ko oukou apono ana i ka hewa, A hoolana hoi i ka maka o ka poe lawehala? (Sila)
3 Judge ye the weak and fatherless, The afflicted and the poor declare righteous.
E hoopono oukou i ka mea nawaliwali, a me na keiki makua ole; E hoopololei hoi mamuli o ka poe pilikia, a me ka mea ilihune.
4 Let the weak and needy escape, From the hand of the wicked deliver them.
E hoopakele oukou i ka mea nawaliwali, a me ka mea nele; E kaili mai hoi ia lakou, mai ka lima mai o ka poe hewa.
5 They knew not, nor do they understand, In darkness they walk habitually, Moved are all the foundations of earth.
Aole e ike lakou, aole hoi e hooponopono iho; Holoholo lakou ma ka pouli; Naueue hoi na kumu a pau o ka honua.
6 I — I have said, 'Gods ye [are], And sons of the Most High — all of you,
Olelo aku la au, He poe akua oukou, He poe keiki no hoi oukou na ka Mea kiekie loa.
7 But as man ye die, and as one of the heads ye fall,
Aka, e make no oukou e like me na kanaka, A e hina hoi e like me kekahi o na'lii.
8 Rise, O God, judge the earth, For Thou hast inheritance among all the nations!
E ku mai oe, e ke Akua, e hooponopono i ko ka honua; No ka mea, e loaa ana no ia oe, iwaena o ko na aina a pau.
