Zabbuli 82

1 Zabbuli ya Asafu. Katonda akubiriza olukiiko lwe olukulu olw’omu ggulu, ng’alamula bakatonda.

A Psalm of Asaph. God presides in the divine assembly; He renders judgment among the gods:

2 Mulituusa ddi okusala emisango n’obukuusa, nga musalira abanafu?

“How long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked?

3 Abanafu n’abatalina bakitaabwe mubalamulenga mu bwenkanya; abaavu n’abanyigirizibwa mubayambenga mu bwenkanya.

Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; uphold the rights of the afflicted and oppressed.

4 Mulwanirire abatalina maanyi n’abali mu kwetaaga, mubawonye; mubanunule nga mubaggya mu mikono gy’ababi.

Rescue the weak and needy; save them from the hand of the wicked.

5 Tebalina kye bamanyi, era tebategeera. Batambulira mu kizikiza; emisingi gy’ensi gyonna ginyeenyezebwa.

They do not know or understand; they wander in the darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.

6 Njogedde nti, Muli bakatonda, era mwenna muli baana b’oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo.

I have said, ‘You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High.’

7 “Naye mugenda kufa ng’abantu obuntu; muliggwaawo ng’abafuzi abalala bonna bwe baggwaawo.”

But like mortals you will die, and like rulers you will fall.”

8 Ogolokoke, Ayi Katonda, olamule ensi; kubanga amawanga gonna gago.

Arise, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are Your inheritance.
