Psalms 82

1 A psalm for Asaph. God hath stood in the congregation of gods: and being in the midst of them he judgeth 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 accept the persons of the wicked?

你們不正義審理，偏袒惡人要到何時？ （休止）

3 Judge for the needy and fatherless: do justice to the humble and the poor.

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 poor; and deliver the needy out of the hand of the sinner.

應拯救弱小及窮苦的人，由惡人的爪牙拯救他們。

5 They have not known nor understood: they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be moved.

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 and all of you the 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 you like men shall die: and shall fall like one of the princes.

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 thou the earth: for thou shalt inherit among all the nations.

天主，求您起來審判下土，因為萬國都應由您佔據。
