< 詩篇 82 >
1 かみは神のつどひの中にたちたまふ 神はもろもろの神のなかに審判をなしたまふ
A Melody of Asaph. God, hath taken his place in the august assembly, In the midst of the gods, will he judge.
2 なんぢらは正からざる審判をなし あしきものの身をかたよりみて幾何時をへんとするや (セラ)
How long will ye judge perversely, And, the countenances of the lawless, uplift? (Selah)
3 よわきものと孤兒とのためにさばき苦しむものと乏しきものとのために公平をほどこせ
Vindicate the weak and the fatherless, The oppressed and the poor, see righted;
4 弱きものと貧しきものとをすくひ彼等をあしきものの手よりたすけいだせ
Deliver the weak and the needy, Out of the hand of the lawless, make rescue.
5 かれらは知ることなく悟ることなくして暗中をゆきめぐりぬ 地のもろもろの基はうごきたり
They know not, neither can they perceive, In darkness, they wander, All the foundations of the earth do shake.
6 我いへらく なんぢらは神なりなんぢらはみな至上者の子なりと
I, said, Gods, ye are, Yea, sons of the Highest, are ye all;
7 然どなんぢらは人のごとくに死もろもろの侯のなかの一人のごとく仆れん
But indeed, like the earth-born, shall ye die! And, like one of the princes, shall ye fall!
8 神よおきて全地をさばきたまへ 汝もろもろの國を嗣たまふべければなり
Arise! O God, judge thou the earth, For, thou, wilt inherit all the nations.
