Psalms 82

1 A psalm of Asaph God [is] taking his stand in [the] congregation of God in [the] midst of [the] gods he gives judgment.

En Salme af Asaf. Gud staar frem i Guders Forsamling, midt iblandt Guder holder han Dom:

2 Until when? will you judge injustice and [the] face of wicked [people] will you lift up (Selah)

»Hvor længe vil I dømme uredeligt og holde med de gudløse? (Sela)

3 Give judgment for [the] poor and [the] fatherless [the] afflicted and [the] poor vindicate.

Skaf de ringe og faderløse Ret, kend de arme og nødstedte fri;

4 Deliver [the] poor and [the] needy from [the] hand of wicked [people] rescue [them].

red de ringe og fattige, fri dem ud af de gudløses Haand!

5 Not they know - and not they understand in darkness they walk about they are shaken all [the] foundations of [the] earth.

Dog, de kender intet, sanser intet, i Mørke vandrer de om, alle Jordens Grundvolde vakler.

6 I I said [are] gods you and [are] [the] children of [the] Most High all of you.

Jeg har sagt, at I er Guder, I er alle den Højestes Sønner;

7 Nevertheless like humankind you will die! and like one of the princes you will fall.

dog skal I dø som Mennesker, styrte som en af Fyrsterne!«

8 Arise! O God judge! the earth for you you have an inheritance among all the nations.

Rejs dig, o Gud, døm Jorden, thi alle Folkene faar du til Arv!
