Faarfannaa 82

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Let the weak and needy escape, Deliver 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 did not know, nor do they understand, They habitually walk in darkness, All the foundations of earth are moved.

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

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

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

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

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

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