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 hath stood in the company of God, In the midst God doth judge.

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

Till when do ye judge perversely? And the face of the wicked lift up? (Selah)

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

Judge ye the weak and fatherless, The afflicted and the poor declare righteous.

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

Let the weak and needy escape, From the hand of the wicked deliver them.

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

They knew not, nor do they understand, In darkness they walk habitually, Moved are all the foundations of earth.

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

I — I have said, 'Gods ye [are], And sons of the Most High — all of you,

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

But as man ye die, and as one of the heads ye fall,

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

Rise, O God, judge the earth, For Thou hast inheritance among all the nations!
