Halelu 82

1 KE ku mai nei ke Akua iwnena o ke anaina alii; Oia ka i hooponopono iwaena o na akua.

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

2 Pehea la ka loihi o ko oukou apono ana i ka hewa, A hoolana hoi i ka maka o ka poe lawehala? (Sila)

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

3 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.

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

4 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.

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

5 Aole e ike lakou, aole hoi e hooponopono iho; Holoholo lakou ma ka pouli; Naueue hoi na kumu a pau o ka honua.

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

6 Olelo aku la au, He poe akua oukou, He poe keiki no hoi oukou na ka Mea kiekie loa.

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

7 Aka, e make no oukou e like me na kanaka, A e hina hoi e like me kekahi o na'lii.

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

8 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.

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