Sòm 82

1 Yon Sòm Asaph Bondye vin kanpe nan mitan pwòp asanble Li a. Li fè jijman nan mitan dye yo.

A Psalm of Asaph. God presides in the divine assembly; He renders judgment among the gods:

2 Pou konbyen de tan nou va jije san jistis, e montre favè a mechan yo?

“How long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked?

3 “Fè defans fèb yo ak òfelen yo. Fè jistis a aflije ak malere yo.

Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; uphold the rights of the afflicted and oppressed.

4 Sove fèb yo ak malere yo. Delivre fè yo sòti nan men a mechan yo.”

Rescue the weak and needy; save them from the hand of the wicked.

5 Yo pa konnen ni yo pa konprann. Yo mache toupatou nan fènwa. Tout fondasyon tè yo fin souke nèt.

They do not know or understand; they wander in the darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.

6 Mwen te di: “Se dye ke nou ye, e nou tout se fis a Pi Wo a.

I have said, ‘You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High.’

7 Sepandan, nou va mouri tankou moun, e tonbe tankou nenpòt nan prens yo.”

But like mortals you will die, and like rulers you will fall.”

8 Leve, O Bondye, jije tè a! Paske se Ou ki posede tout nasyon yo.

Arise, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are Your inheritance.
