Masalimo 82

1 Salimo la Asafu. Mulungu akutsogolera msonkhano waukulu; Iye akuweruza pakati pa “milungu.”

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

2 “Mudzateteza osalungama mpaka liti, ndi kukondera anthu oyipa?

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

3 Tetezani anthu ofowoka ndi amasiye; mukhazikitse ufulu wa anthu osauka ndi ozunzika.

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

4 Landitsani anthu ofowoka ndi osowa; apulumutseni mʼdzanja la anthu oyipa.

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

5 “Iwo sadziwa kanthu, sazindikira kalikonse. Amayendayenda mu mdima; maziko onse a dziko lapansi agwedezeka.

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

6 “Ndinati, ‘Inu ndinu Mulungu, nonsenu ndinu ana a Wammwambamwamba.’

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

7 Koma mudzafa ngati anthu wamba; mudzagwa ngati wolamula wina aliyense.”

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

8 Dzukani Inu Mulungu, weruzani dziko lapansi, pakuti mayiko onse ndi cholowa chanu.

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