Halelu 82

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

A Psalm of Asaph. God standeth in the assembly of God, he judgeth among the 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 person of the wicked? (Selah)

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 poor and the fatherless, do justice to the afflicted and the destitute;

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 poor and needy, deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

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, neither do they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are moved.

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 are 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 shall die like men, and fall like 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 the nations.
