< Psalmorum 82 >
1 psalmus Asaph Deus stetit in synagoga deorum in medio autem Deus deiudicat
God stands in the congregation of God. He judges among the gods.
2 usquequo iudicatis iniquitatem et facies peccatorum sumitis diapsalma
How long will ye judge unjustly, and respect the persons of the wicked? (Selah)
3 iudicate egenum et pupillum humilem et pauperem iustificate
Judge the poor man and the orphan. Do justice to the afflicted and destitute man.
4 eripite pauperem et egenum de manu peccatoris liberate
Rescue the poor and needy man. Deliver from the hand of the wicked man.
5 nescierunt neque intellexerunt in tenebris ambulant movebuntur omnia fundamenta terrae
They know not, nor do they understand. They walk to and fro in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 ego dixi dii estis et filii Excelsi omnes
I said, Ye are gods, and all of you sons of the Most High.
7 vos autem sicut homines moriemini et sicut unus de principibus cadetis
Nevertheless ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the rulers.
8 surge Deus iudica terram quoniam tu hereditabis in omnibus gentibus
Arise, O God, judge the earth, for thou shall inherit all the nations.
