< Psalms 82 >

1 A Psalm of Asaph. God presides in the divine assembly; He renders judgment among the gods:
詠【警告為民長者】阿撒夫的詩歌。 天主親臨眾神的會議,在眾神之中主張公理:
2 “How long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked?
你們不正義審理,偏袒惡人要到何時? (休止)
3 Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; uphold the rights of the afflicted and oppressed.
你們應保護受苦的人和孤兒,為貧窮與可憐的人主持正義。
4 Rescue the weak and needy; save them from the hand of the wicked.
應拯救弱小及窮苦的人,由惡人的爪牙拯救他們。
5 They do not know or understand; they wander in the darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
他們原本無知無識,在暗中摸索,卻把大地的一切根基動搖。
6 I have said, ‘You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High.’
我親自說過:你們都是神,眾人都是至高者的子民。
7 But like mortals you will die, and like rulers you will fall.”
但是你們必要死亡像眾人一樣,必要消失像任何一位王侯一樣。
8 Arise, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are Your inheritance.
天主,求您起來審判下土,因為萬國都應由您佔據。
