Psalmi 82

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

“A psalm of Assaph.” God standeth in the congregation of God, in the midst of judges doth he judge.

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

How long will ye judge unjustly, and treat with favor the face of the wicked? (Selah)

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

Judge uprightly the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and indigent.

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

Release the poor and needy: deliver them out of the power of the wicked.

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

They know not, nor will they understand; in darkness do they walk on: all the foundations of the earth are moved.

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

I have indeed said, Ye are gods; and children of the most High are all of you.

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

But verily like men shall ye die, and like one of the princes shall ye fall.

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

Arise, O God, judge the earth; for thou wilt possess all the nations.
