< Psalms 82 >
1 A Psalm for Asaph. God stands in the assembly of gods; and in the midst [of them] will judge gods.
Salamo nataon’ i Asafa.
2 How long will you judge unrighteously, and accept the persons of sinners? (Pause)
Mandra-pahoviana no hitsarànareo tsy marina ka ihenaranareo maso ny ratsy fanahy? (Sela)
3 Judge the orphan and poor: do justice to the low and needy.
Alaharo ny tenin’ ny mahantra sy ny kamboty; omeo rariny ny ory sy ny malahelo;
4 Rescue the needy, and deliver the poor out of the hand of the sinner.
Vonjeo ny mahantra sy ny malahelo; afaho amin’ ny tanan’ ny ratsy fanahy izy.
5 They know not, nor understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be shaken.
Tsy mahalala na mahazo an-tsaina ireny; ao amin’ ny maizina no andehanany; mihorohoro ny fanambanin’ ny tany rehetra.
6 I have said, You are gods; and all [of you] children of the Most High.
Hoy izaho: Andriamanitra ianareo, ary zanaky ny Avo Indrindra ianareo rehetra;
7 But you die as men, and fall as one of the princes.
Kanjo ho faty tahaka ny olona ihany ianareo, ary samy ho lavo tahaka ny anankiray amin’ ny lehibe.
8 Arise, O God, judge the earth: for you shall inherit all nations.
Mitsangàna, Andriamanitra ô, tsarao ny tany; fa Hianao no handova ny firenena rehetra.
