< 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:
Mijohañe am-pivo­rim-panalolahy t’i Andrianañahare; mizaka añivom-pizaka eo.
2 “You must [RHQ] stop judging [people] unfairly; you must no longer make decisions that favor wicked [people]!
Pak’ombia ty mbe izakà’ areo ami’ty tsy hiti’e, hañonjonañe o tsivokatseo? Selà
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.
Meo tò o rarakeo naho o bode-raeo; tohaño ty zo’ o poie’eo naho o misotrio.
4 Rescue them from the power [MTY] of evil [people] [DOU]!”
Hahao o mahàtrao naho o malorèo; avotsoro am-pità’ o lo-tserekeo.
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!
Tsy mahilala iereo, naho tsy mahafohiñe, mirere­rere añ’ieñe ao avao; fa naveve iaby o faha’ ty tane toio.
6 I [the all-powerful God, previously] said to them, “You think you are gods! [It is as though] you are all my sons,
Nanao ty hoe iraho: Mpizaka nahareo songa anak’ i Andindimoneñey.
7 but you will die like people do; your lives will end, like the lives of all rulers end.”
Fe hikoromake hoe ondaty avao, hikorovoke manahake ty raike amo roandriañeo.
8 God, arise and judge [everyone on] [MTY] the earth, because all the people-groups belong to you!
Miongaha, ry Andrianañahare, zakao ty tane toy, fa kila ho lovae’o o fifeheañeo.
