Psalms 82

1 A PSALM OF ASAPH. God has stood in the congregation of God, He judges among the gods.

Abụ Ọma Asaf. Chineke na-ewere ọnọdụ ịchị isi nʼetiti ọgbakọ dị ukwuu; ọ na-ekpebi ikpe nʼetiti chi niile.

2 Until when do you judge perversely? And lift up the face of the wicked? (Selah)

Ruo ole mgbe ka unu ga-anọgide na-ekpe ikpe na-ezighị ezi? Ruo ole mgbe ka unu ga na-egosi ndị ajọ omume ihuọma? (Sela)

3 Judge the weak and fatherless, Declare the afflicted and the poor righteous.

Kperenụ ndị na-adịghị ike na ndị na-enweghị nna ikpe ziri ezi; hụnụ na ndị ogbenye na ndị a na-emegbu nwetara ihe ruuru ha.

4 Let the weak and needy escape, Deliver them from the hand of the wicked.

Gbapụtanụ ndị na-adịghị ike na ndị nọ na mkpa; napụta ha site nʼaka ndị ajọ omume.

5 They did not know, nor do they understand, They habitually walk in darkness, All the foundations of earth are moved.

Ha amaghị ihe ọbụla, ha aghọtaghị ihe ọbụla. Ha na-ejegharị nʼọchịchịrị; ntọala niile nke ụwa na-ama jijiji.

6 I have said, “You [are] gods, And sons of the Most High—all of you,

“Asịrị m, ‘Unu bụ “chi,” unu niile bụ ụmụ ndị ikom nke Onye kachasị ihe niile elu.’

7 But you die as man, and you fall as one of the heads.”

Ma unu ga-anwụ ọnwụ dịka mmadụ ndị ọzọ; unu ga-ada dịka ndị ọchịchị ọzọ.”

8 Rise, O God, judge the earth, For You have inheritance among all the nations!

O Chineke, bilie kpee ụwa ikpe, nʼihi na mba niile bụ ihe nketa gị.
