Psalms 82

1 God stands in the congregation of the mighty; he judges among the gods.

Zabbuli ya Asafu. Katonda akubiriza olukiiko lwe olukulu olw’omu ggulu, ng’alamula bakatonda.

2 How long will all of you judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? (Selah)

Mulituusa ddi okusala emisango n’obukuusa, nga musalira abanafu?

3 Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.

Abanafu n’abatalina bakitaabwe mubalamulenga mu bwenkanya; abaavu n’abanyigirizibwa mubayambenga mu bwenkanya.

4 Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.

Mulwanirire abatalina maanyi n’abali mu kwetaaga, mubawonye; mubanunule nga mubaggya mu mikono gy’ababi.

5 They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.

Tebalina kye bamanyi, era tebategeera. Batambulira mu kizikiza; emisingi gy’ensi gyonna ginyeenyezebwa.

6 I have said, All of you are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.

Njogedde nti, Muli bakatonda, era mwenna muli baana b’oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo.

7 But all of you shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.

“Naye mugenda kufa ng’abantu obuntu; muliggwaawo ng’abafuzi abalala bonna bwe baggwaawo.”

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

Ogolokoke, Ayi Katonda, olamule ensi; kubanga amawanga gonna gago.
