Psalms 82

1 A Psalm for Asaph. God stands in the assembly of gods; and in the midst [of them] will judge gods.

Nkunga Asafi. Nzambi telimini va lukutukunu lunneni. Wulembo vani nzengolo va khatitsika “zinzambi”.

2 How long will you judge unrighteously, and accept the persons of sinners? (Pause)

Nate thangu mbi luela nuaninanga mutu kambulu wusonga ayi luela monisinanga thalu yi zizi kuidi batu bambimbi e?

3 Judge the orphan and poor: do justice to the low and needy.

Nuanina mutu wulebakana ayi muana wusana. Luvanga malulama kuidi nsukami ayi kuidi mutu weti yamusu.

4 Rescue the needy, and deliver the poor out of the hand of the sinner.

Kulanu mutu wulebakana ayi nsukami; bika luba vukisa mu mioko mi batu bambimbi.

5 They know not, nor understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be shaken.

Basi zaba kadi diambu ko ayi basudikanga kadi diambu ko; Mu tombi beti diatila; zifundasio zioso zi ntoto zilembo nikuka.

6 I have said, You are gods; and all [of you] children of the Most High.

Minu ndituba: “luidi zinzambi ayi beno boso luidi bana ba Nzambi yizangama.”

7 But you die as men, and fall as one of the princes.

Vayi luela fua banga batu boso, luela bua banga woso kuandi nyadi.

8 Arise, O God, judge the earth: for you shall inherit all nations.

Telama, a Nzambi, sambisa ntoto! Bila makanda moso madi kiuka kiaku.
