Mazmur 82

1 Mazmur Asaf. Allah memimpin sidang ilahi di surga, lalu Ia memberi keputusan-Nya:

“A psalm of Assaph.” God standeth in the congregation of God, in the midst of judges doth he judge.

2 "Jangan lagi mengadili dengan curang, dan jangan memihak kepada orang jahat.

How long will ye judge unjustly, and treat with favor the face of the wicked? (Selah)

3 Belalah anak yatim dan orang lemah, berilah keadilan kepada orang miskin dan sengsara.

Judge uprightly the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and indigent.

4 Bebaskanlah orang yang lemah dan tak berdaya, luputkan mereka dari tangan orang jahat.

Release the poor and needy: deliver them out of the power of the wicked.

5 Kamu tak tahu apa-apa, bodoh dan sesat, karena kamu, tata tertib masyarakat berantakan.

They know not, nor will they understand; in darkness do they walk on: all the foundations of the earth are moved.

6 Aku berkata bahwa kamu ilahi kamu sekalian anak-anak Allah Yang Mahatinggi.

I have indeed said, Ye are gods; and children of the most High are all of you.

7 Tapi kamu akan mati seperti manusia, seperti setiap pembesar, kamu pun akan tewas."

But verily like men shall ye die, and like one of the princes shall ye fall.

8 Datanglah ya Allah, hakimilah dunia, sebab semua bangsa adalah milik-Mu.

Arise, O God, judge the earth; for thou wilt possess all the nations.
