Psalms 82

1 A Psalm of Asaph. God standeth in the congregation of God; in the midst of the judges He judgeth:

Yon Sòm Asaph Bondye vin kanpe nan mitan pwòp asanble Li a. Li fè jijman nan mitan dye yo.

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

Pou konbyen de tan nou va jije san jistis, e montre favè a mechan yo?

3 Judge the poor and fatherless; do justice to the afflicted and destitute.

“Fè defans fèb yo ak òfelen yo. Fè jistis a aflije ak malere yo.

4 Rescue the poor and needy; deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

Sove fèb yo ak malere yo. Delivre fè yo sòti nan men a mechan yo.”

5 They know not, neither do they understand; they go about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are moved.

Yo pa konnen ni yo pa konprann. Yo mache toupatou nan fènwa. Tout fondasyon tè yo fin souke nèt.

6 I said: Ye are godlike beings, and all of you sons of the Most High.

Mwen te di: “Se dye ke nou ye, e nou tout se fis a Pi Wo a.

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

Sepandan, nou va mouri tankou moun, e tonbe tankou nenpòt nan prens yo.”

8 Arise, O God, judge the earth; for Thou shalt possess all nations.

Leve, O Bondye, jije tè a! Paske se Ou ki posede tout nasyon yo.
