Psalms 82

1 God gathers all the [rulers and judges who think they are] gods for a meeting in heaven; and he tells them that he has decided this:

詠【警告為民長者】阿撒夫的詩歌。 天主親臨眾神的會議，在眾神之中主張公理：

2 “You must [RHQ] stop judging [people] unfairly; you must no longer make decisions that favor wicked [people]!

你們不正義審理，偏袒惡人要到何時？ （休止）

3 You must defend [people who are] poor and orphans; you must act fairly toward those who are needy and those who have no one to help them.

你們應保護受苦的人和孤兒，為貧窮與可憐的人主持正義。

4 Rescue them from the power [MTY] of evil [people] [DOU]!”

應拯救弱小及窮苦的人，由惡人的爪牙拯救他們。

5 [Those rulers] do not know or understand anything! They are very corrupt/evil, and [as a result of their corrupt/evil behavior], [it is as though] the foundation of the world is being shaken!

他們原本無知無識，在暗中摸索，卻把大地的一切根基動搖。

6 I [the all-powerful God, previously] said to them, “You think you are gods! [It is as though] you are all my sons,

我親自說過：你們都是神，眾人都是至高者的子民。

7 but you will die like people do; your lives will end, like the lives of all rulers end.”

但是你們必要死亡像眾人一樣，必要消失像任何一位王侯一樣。

8 God, arise and judge [everyone on] [MTY] the earth, because all the people-groups belong to you!

天主，求您起來審判下土，因為萬國都應由您佔據。
