< תהילים 82 >

מִזְמוֹר לְאָסָף אֱֽלֹהִים נִצָּב בַּעֲדַת־אֵל בְּקֶרֶב אֱלֹהִים יִשְׁפֹּֽט׃ 1
“A psalm of Assaph.” God standeth in the congregation of God, in the midst of judges doth he judge.
עַד־מָתַי תִּשְׁפְּטוּ־עָוֶל וּפְנֵי רְשָׁעִים תִּשְׂאוּ־סֶֽלָה׃ 2
How long will ye judge unjustly, and treat with favor the face of the wicked? (Selah)
שִׁפְטוּ־דַל וְיָתוֹם עָנִי וָרָשׁ הַצְדִּֽיקוּ׃ 3
Judge uprightly the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and indigent.
פַּלְּטוּ־דַל וְאֶבְיוֹן מִיַּד רְשָׁעִים הַצִּֽילוּ׃ 4
Release the poor and needy: deliver them out of the power of the wicked.
לֹא יָדְעוּ ׀ וְלֹא יָבִינוּ בַּחֲשֵׁכָה יִתְהַלָּכוּ יִמּוֹטוּ כׇּל־מוֹסְדֵי אָֽרֶץ׃ 5
They know not, nor will they understand; in darkness do they walk on: all the foundations of the earth are moved.
אֲֽנִי־אָמַרְתִּי אֱלֹהִים אַתֶּם וּבְנֵי עֶלְיוֹן כֻּלְּכֶֽם׃ 6
I have indeed said, Ye are gods; and children of the most High are all of you.
אָכֵן כְּאָדָם תְּמוּתוּן וּכְאַחַד הַשָּׂרִים תִּפֹּֽלוּ׃ 7
But verily like men shall ye die, and like one of the princes shall ye fall.
קוּמָה אֱלֹהִים שׇׁפְטָה הָאָרֶץ כִּֽי־אַתָּה תִנְחַל בְּכׇל־הַגּוֹיִֽם׃ 8
Arise, O God, judge the earth; for thou wilt possess all the nations.
