Psalms 82

1 A Psalme committed to Aspah. God standeth in the assemblie of gods: hee iudgeth among gods.

Ko e Saame ʻa ʻAsafi. ‌ʻOku ʻafio ʻae ʻOtua ʻi he fakataha ʻoe kau mālohi; ʻoku ne fakamaau ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi ʻotua.

2 How long wil ye iudge vniustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? (Selah)

“ʻE fēfē hono fuoloa mo hoʻomou fakamaau taʻetotonu, pea filifilimānako ki he kakai angahala?” (Sila)

3 Doe right to the poore and fatherlesse: doe iustice to the poore and needie.

“Fakamaau ʻae paea mo e tamai mate: fai angatonu ki he mamahi mo e masiva.

4 Deliuer the poore and needie: saue them from the hand of the wicked.

Fakahaofi ʻae masiva mo e paea: fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu mei he nima ʻoe kau angahala.”

5 They knowe not and vnderstand nothing: they walke in darkenes, albeit all the foundations of the earth be mooued.

‌ʻOku ʻikai te nau ʻilo, pea ʻoku ʻikai te nau fie ʻilo; ʻoku nau ʻalu pē ʻi he poʻuli: kuo ueʻi ʻae ngaahi tuʻunga kotoa pē ʻo māmani.

6 I haue said, Ye are gods, and ye all are children of the most High.

Naʻaku pehē, “Ko e ngaahi ʻotua ʻakimoutolu; pea ko e fānau ʻae Fungani Māʻolunga ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē.

7 But ye shall die as a man, and yee princes, shall fall like others.

Ka temou mate ʻo hangē ko e kau tangata, pea tō ʻo hangē ko e tokotaha ʻoe houʻeiki.”

8 O God, arise, therefore iudge thou the earth: for thou shalt inherite all nations.

Tuʻu hake, ʻE ʻOtua, fakamaau ʻa māmani: he te ke maʻu ʻae puleʻanga kotoa pē.
