Psalms 82

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

psalmus Asaph Deus stetit in synagoga deorum in medio autem Deus deiudicat

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

usquequo iudicatis iniquitatem et facies peccatorum sumitis diapsalma

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

iudicate egenum et pupillum humilem et pauperem iustificate

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

eripite pauperem et egenum de manu peccatoris liberate

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

nescierunt neque intellexerunt in tenebris ambulant movebuntur omnia fundamenta terrae

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

ego dixi dii estis et filii Excelsi omnes

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

vos autem sicut homines moriemini et sicut unus de principibus cadetis

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

surge Deus iudica terram quoniam tu hereditabis in omnibus gentibus
