Psalms 82

1 A Psalm of Asaph. God standeth in the congregation of God; He judgeth among the gods.

Asaf dwom. Onyankopɔn di ɔhene wɔ ɔsoro asafo mu; ɔbu atɛn wɔ “anyame” mu.

2 How long will ye judge unjustly, And respect the persons of the wicked? (Selah)

“Wobɛbɔ wɔn a wɔnteneɛ ho ban na woayɛ animhwɛ ama amumuyɛfoɔ akɔsi da bɛn?

3 Judge the poor and fatherless: Do justice to the afflicted and destitute.

Monka mmɔborɔfoɔ ne nwisiaa asɛm mma wɔn; mommɔ ahiafoɔ ne wɔn a wɔhyɛ wɔn so yiedie ho ban.

4 Rescue the poor and needy: Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

Monnye ɔbrɛfoɔ ne ohiani; monnye wɔn mfiri amumuyɛfoɔ nsam.

5 They know not, neither do they understand; They walk to and fro in darkness: All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

“Wɔnnim hwee, na wɔnte hwee ase. Wɔkyinkyini wɔ esum mu; na asase fapem nyinaa woso.

6 I said, Ye are gods, And all of you sons of the Most High.

“Mekaa sɛ, ‘Moyɛ “anyame”; mo nyinaa yɛ Ɔsorosoroni no mma.’

7 Nevertheless ye shall die like men, And fall like one of the princes.

Nanso, mobɛwuwu sɛ nnipa pɛ; na moahwe ase sɛ sodifoɔ biara.”

8 Arise, O God, judge the earth; For thou shalt inherit all the nations.

Ao Onyankopɔn, sɔre na bɛbu ewiase atɛn; ɛfiri sɛ amanaman nyinaa yɛ wo dea.
