Psalms 82

1 [A Psalm by Asaph.] God presides in the assembly of God. He judges among the gods.

١ مَزْمُورٌ لآسَافَ. اللهُ يَتَرَأَّسُ سَاحَةَ قَضَائِهِ، وَعَلَى القُضَاةِ يُصْدِرُ حُكْماً.

2 "How long will you judge unjustly, and show partiality to the wicked?" (Selah)

٢ حَتَّى مَتَى تَقْضُونَ بِالظُّلْمِ وَتَنْحَازُونَ إِلَى الأَشْرَارِ؟

3 "Defend the weak, the poor, and the fatherless. Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.

٣ احْكُمُوا لِلذَّلِيلِ وَالْيَتِيمِ. وَأَنْصِفُوا الْمِسْكِينَ وَالْبَائِسَ.

4 Rescue the weak and needy. Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked."

٤ أَنْقِذُوا الْمِسْكِينَ وَالْفَقِيرَ؛ أَنْقِذُوهُمَا مِنْ قَبْضَةِ الأَشْرَارِ.

5 They do not know, neither do they understand. They walk back and forth in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

٥ هُمْ مِنْ غَيْرِ مَعْرِفَةٍ وَفَهْمٍ، يَتَمَشَّوْنَ فِي الظُّلْمَةِ وَتَتَزَعْزَعُ أُسُسُ الأَرْضِ مِنْ كَثْرَةِ الْجَوْرِ.

6 I said, "You are gods, all of you are sons of the Most High.

٦ أَنَا قُلْتُ: «إِنَّكُمْ آلِهَةٌ، وَجَمِيعَكُمْ بَنُو الْعَلِيِّ.

7 Nevertheless you shall die like men, and fall like one of the rulers."

٧ لَكِنَّكُمْ سَتَمُوتُونَ كَالْبَشَرِ، وَتَنْتَهِي حَيَاتُكُمْ مِثْلَ كُلِّ الرُّؤَسَاءِ».

8 Arise, God, judge the earth, for you inherit all of the nations.

٨ قُمْ يَا اللهُ قُمْ. دِنِ الأَرْضَ، لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ تَمْتَلِكُ الأُمَمَ بِأَسْرِهَا.
