Psalmi 82

1 Psalam. Asafov. Bog ustaje u skupštini “bogova”, usred “bogova” sud održava.

A Psalm for Asaph. God stands in the assembly of gods; and in the midst [of them] will judge gods.

2 “Dokle ćete sudit' krivo, ić' na ruku bezbožnima?

How long will ye judge unrighteously, and accept the persons of sinners? (Pause)

3 Štitite slaba i sirotu, vratite pravicu jadniku i siromahu!

Judge the orphan and poor: do justice to the low and needy.

4 Izbavite potlačenog i ubogog: istrgnite ga iz ruku bezbožnih!”

Rescue the needy, and deliver the poor out of the hand of the sinner.

5 Ne shvaćaju nit' razumiju, po mraku hodaju: poljuljani su svi temelji zemlje.

They know not, nor understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be shaken.

6 Rekoh doduše: “Vi ste bogovi i svi ste sinovi Višnjega!

I have said, Ye are gods; and all [of you] children of the Most High.

7 Ali ćete k'o svi ljudi umrijeti, past ćete kao svatko od velikih!”

But ye die as men, and fall as one of the princes.

8 Ustani, Bože, i sudi zemlju, jer si s pravom gospodar svih naroda.

Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.
