< Psalmi 82 >
1 Asafa dziesma. Dievs stāv Savā draudzē, Viņš tura tiesu starp tiem dieviem.
[A Psalm by Asaph.] God presides in the assembly of God. He judges among the gods.
2 Cik ilgi jūs gribat netaisni tiesāt un uzlūkot bezdievīgo ļaužu vaigu? (Sela)
"How long will you judge unjustly, and show partiality to the wicked?" (Selah)
3 Izdodiet tiesu nabagam un bāriņam, taisnojiet bēdīgo un nabagu.
"Defend the weak, the poor, and the fatherless. Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
4 Izglābiet nabagu un bēdīgo, izraujiet viņu no bezdievīgo rokas.
Rescue the weak and needy. Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked."
5 Bet tie to neatzīst un nesaprot, tie staigā tumsībā; par to zemes pamatiem jāšaubās.
They do not know, neither do they understand. They walk back and forth in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 Gan Es esmu sacījis: jūs esat dievi, un visi tā Visuaugstākā bērni.
I said, "You are gods, all of you are sons of the Most High.
7 Bet jūs nomirsiet kā cilvēki un iesiet bojā tāpat kā citi lieli kungi.
Nevertheless you shall die like men, and fall like one of the rulers."
8 Celies, ak Dievs, tiesā pasauli, jo Tev būs par mantību visas tautas.
Arise, God, judge the earth, for you inherit all of the nations.
