Psalmorum 82

1 psalmus Asaph Deus stetit in synagoga deorum in medio autem Deus deiudicat

A PSALM OF ASAPH. God has stood in the congregation of God, He judges among the gods.

2 usquequo iudicatis iniquitatem et facies peccatorum sumitis diapsalma

Until when do you judge perversely? And lift up the face of the wicked? (Selah)

3 iudicate egenum et pupillum humilem et pauperem iustificate

Judge the weak and fatherless, Declare the afflicted and the poor righteous.

4 eripite pauperem et egenum de manu peccatoris liberate

Let the weak and needy escape, Deliver them from the hand of the wicked.

5 nescierunt neque intellexerunt in tenebris ambulant movebuntur omnia fundamenta terrae

They did not know, nor do they understand, They habitually walk in darkness, All the foundations of earth are moved.

6 ego dixi dii estis et filii Excelsi omnes

I have said, “You [are] gods, And sons of the Most High—all of you,

7 vos autem sicut homines moriemini et sicut unus de principibus cadetis

But you die as man, and you fall as one of the heads.”

8 surge Deus iudica terram quoniam tu hereditabis in omnibus gentibus

Rise, O God, judge the earth, For You have inheritance among all the nations!
