Faarfannaa 82

1 Faarfannaa Asaaf. Waaqni, waldaa waaqotaa gidduu dhaabata; “waaqota” gidduuttis murtii kenna; akkanas jedha:

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

2 “Isin hamma yoomiitti seera jalʼiftu? Hamma yoomiittis jalʼootaaf dhaabattu?

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

3 Dadhabdootaa fi ijoollee abbaa hin qabneef murtii qajeelaa kennaa; mirga hiyyeeyyiitii fi cunqurfamtootaas eegsisaa.

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

4 Warra dadhabaa fi rakkattoota baraaraa; harka jalʼootaatiis isaan baasaa.

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

5 “Isaan homaa hin beekan; homaa illee hin hubatan. Isaan dukkana keessa jiraatu; hundeen lafaa hundinuu ni raafame.

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

6 “Anis, ‘Isin, “waaqota;” hundi keessan ilmaan Waaqa Waan Hundaa Olii ti’ jedheera.

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

7 Taʼus isin akkuma namatti ni duutu; akkuma bulchitoota kamii iyyuu ni kuftu.”

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

8 Yaa Waaqi kaʼi; lafatti muri; sabni hundinuu kan keetiitii.

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