Zaburi 82

1 Zaburi mar Asaf. Nyasaye osekawo kare e dier chokruok maduongʼ, ongʼado bura e kind “nyiseche.”

A Psalm of Asaph. God presides in the divine assembly; He renders judgment among the gods:

2 Nyaka karangʼo ma ubiro dhi nyime ka udewo wangʼ joma ok timbegi nikare kendo kudewo wangʼ joma timbegi richo? (Sela)

“How long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked?

3 Ngʼaduru bura makare ne joma ok nyal kod nyithi kiye, kendo konyuru joma odhier kod joma ok nyal konyore kendgi.

Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; uphold the rights of the afflicted and oppressed.

4 Resuru joma ok nyal kod joma ochando; golgiuru e lwet joma timbegi richo.

Rescue the weak and needy; save them from the hand of the wicked.

5 To gisesiko ka gimemore kendo onge gima gingʼeyo. Giwuotho koni gi koni e mudho; kendo gimiyo mise duto mag piny yiengni.

They do not know or understand; they wander in the darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.

6 “Asenyisou ni, ‘Un “nyiseche;” kendo ni un duto un yawuot Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo.’

I have said, ‘You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High.’

7 To ubiro tho ka ji ajia; adier ubiro podho mana kaka jatelo moro amora ma ok otangʼ.”

But like mortals you will die, and like rulers you will fall.”

8 Aa malo, yaye Nyasaye, ngʼadni piny bura, nimar ogendini duto gin girkeni magi.

Arise, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are Your inheritance.
