Psalms 82

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

Pisarema raAsafi. Mwari anogara paungano huru; anotonga pakati pa“vamwari” achiti,

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

“Muchasvika riniko muchirwira vasakarurama uye muchisanangura vanhu vakaipa? Sera

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

Tongai mhaka dzavasina simba nenherera; chengetedzai kodzero dzavarombo navakadzvinyirirwa.

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

Nunurai vasina simba navanoshayiwa; varwirei paruoko rwowakaipa.

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

“Havana chavanoziva, havana chavanonzwisisa. Vanongofamba-famba murima; nheyo dzose dzenyika dzinozungunuswa.

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

“Ndakati, ‘Muri vamwari; imi mose muri vanakomana veWokumusoro-soro.’

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

Asi muchafa savanhuwo zvavo; muchawa savatongi vose.”

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

Simukai, imi Mwari, mutonge nyika, nokuti ndudzi dzose inhaka yenyu.
