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 standeth in God's assembly, He judgeth in the midst of the gods.

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

“How long will ye judge unjustly, And favor the cause of the wicked? (Pause)

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

Defend the poor and the fatherless; Do justice to the wretched and the needy!

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

Deliver the poor and the destitute; 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 are without knowledge and without understanding; They walk in darkness: Therefore all the foundations of the land are shaken.

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

I have said, Ye are gods, And all of you children of the Most High;

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

But ye shall die like men, And fall like the rest of the princes.”

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 thy possession.
