< Psalms 82 >

1 A Psalm by Asaph. God presides in the great assembly. He judges among the gods.
Thaburi ya Asafu Ngai arũgamĩte kĩũngano-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩnene; aratuĩra “ngai” ciira arĩ gatagatĩ ga cio.
2 “How long will you judge unjustly, and show partiality to the wicked?” (Selah)
“Nĩ nginya rĩ mũgũtũũra mũciiragĩrĩra andũ arĩa matarũgamagĩrĩra kĩhooto, na mũgatĩĩra arĩa aaganu maũthĩ?
3 “Defend the weak, the poor, and the fatherless. Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
“Ciiragĩrĩrai kĩhooto kĩa arĩa matarĩ hinya na arĩa matarĩ maithe; tũũriai ihooto cia andũ arĩa athĩĩni o na arĩa ahinyĩrĩrie.
4 Rescue the weak and needy. Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.”
Hatũragai arĩa matarĩ hinya na arĩa abatari; mateithũrei kuuma moko-inĩ ma arĩa aaganu.
5 They do not know, neither do they understand. They walk back and forth in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
“Andũ acio matirĩ ũndũ mooĩ, na matirĩ ũndũ makũũranaga. Macangacangaga nduma-inĩ; mĩthingi yothe ya thĩ nĩyenyenyete.
6 I said, “You are gods, all of you are sons of the Most High.
“Ndoigire atĩrĩ, ‘Inyuĩ mũrĩ “ngai”; inyuothe mũrĩ ariũ a Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno.’
7 Nevertheless you shall die like men, and fall like one of the rulers.”
No mũgaakua o ta ũrĩa andũ makuuaga; mũkaagũa o ta aathani arĩa angĩ.”
8 Arise, God, judge the earth, for you inherit all of the nations.
Arahũka, Wee Ngai, ũtuĩre thĩ ciira, nĩgũkorwo ndũrĩrĩ ciothe nĩ igai rĩaku.
