< 詩篇 82 >
1 詠【警告為民長者】阿撒夫的詩歌。 天主親臨眾神的會議,在眾神之中主張公理:
“A psalm of Assaph.” God standeth in the congregation of God, in the midst of judges doth he judge.
How long will ye judge unjustly, and treat with favor the face of the wicked? (Selah)
3 你們應保護受苦的人和孤兒,為貧窮與可憐的人主持正義。
Judge uprightly the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and indigent.
Release the poor and needy: deliver them out of the power of the wicked.
5 他們原本無知無識,在暗中摸索,卻把大地的一切根基動搖。
They know not, nor will they understand; in darkness do they walk on: all the foundations of the earth are moved.
6 我親自說過:你們都是神,眾人都是至高者的子民。
I have indeed said, Ye are gods; and children of the most High are all of you.
7 但是你們必要死亡像眾人一樣,必要消失像任何一位王侯一樣。
But verily like men shall ye die, and like one of the princes shall ye fall.
8 天主,求您起來審判下土,因為萬國都應由您佔據。
Arise, O God, judge the earth; for thou wilt possess all the nations.
