Psalmi 82

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

A psalm for Asaph. God hath stood in the congregation of gods: and being in the midst of them he judgeth gods.

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

How long will you judge unjustly: and accept the persons of the wicked?

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

Judge for the needy and fatherless: do justice to the humble and the poor.

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

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

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

They have not known nor understood: they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be moved.

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

I have said: You are gods and all of you the sons of the most High.

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

But you like men shall die: and shall fall like one of the princes.

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

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