< 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 Asaph.” God standeth in God's assembly, He judgeth in the midst of the gods.
“How long will ye judge unjustly, And favor the cause of the wicked? (Pause)
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。
Defend the poor and the fatherless; Do justice to the wretched and the needy!
Deliver the poor and the destitute; Save them from the hand 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 are without knowledge and without understanding; They walk in darkness: Therefore all the foundations of the land are shaken.
6 我親自說過:你們都是神,眾人都是至高者的子民。
I have said, Ye are gods, And all of you children of the Most High;
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 ye shall die like men, And fall like the rest of the princes.”
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 all the nations are thy possession.
