Psalmi 82

1 Bog stoji v skupnosti mogočnih, sodi med bogovi.

A Melody of Asaph. God, hath taken his place in the august assembly, In the midst of the gods, will he judge.

2 »Doklej boste nepravično sodili in sprejemali zunanjost zlobnih? (Sela)

How long will ye judge perversely, And, the countenances of the lawless, uplift? (Selah)

3 Branite revne in osirotele, ravnajte pravično prizadetim in pomoči potrebnim.

Vindicate the weak and the fatherless, The oppressed and the poor, see righted;

4 Osvobodite uboge in pomoči potrebne, odstranite jih iz roke zlobnih.«

Deliver the weak and the needy, Out of the hand of the lawless, make rescue.

5 Ne vedo niti ne bodo razumeli, hodijo v temi. Vsi temelji zemlje so izven naravnega reda.

They know not, neither can they perceive, In darkness, they wander, All the foundations of the earth do shake.

6 Rekel sem: »Vi ste bogovi in vsi izmed vas ste otroci Najvišjega.

I, said, Gods, ye are, Yea, sons of the Highest, are ye all;

7 Vendar boste umrli kakor ljudje in padli kakor kdo izmed princev.«

But indeed, like the earth-born, shall ye die! And, like one of the princes, shall ye fall!

8 Vstani, oh Bog, sodi zemljo, kajti ti boš podedoval vse narode.

Arise! O God, judge thou the earth, For, thou, wilt inherit all the nations.
