1 神站在大能者的会中, 在众神之中施行审判, 说: (本节在《马索拉抄本》包括细字标题)

2 "你们不按公义审判, 偏袒恶人, 要到几时呢?(细拉)

3 你们要为贫寒的人和孤儿伸冤, 为困苦和穷乏的人伸张正义。

4 要搭救贫寒和穷困的人, 救他们脱离恶人的手。"

5 他们没有知识, 也不明白, 在黑暗中走来走去; 大地的一切根基都摇动了。

6 我曾说过: "你们都是神, 是至高者的儿子。

7 然而, 你们要像世人一样死亡, 像世上任何一位领袖一样倒毙。"

8 神啊! 求你起来, 审判大地, 因为万国都是你的产业。

A Psalm of Asaph.

1 God standeth in the congregation of God;

He judgeth among the gods.

2 How long will ye judge unjustly,

And respect the persons of the wicked? [Selah

3 Judge the poor and fatherless:

Do justice to the afflicted and destitute.

4 Rescue the poor and needy:

Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

5 They know not, neither do they understand;

They walk to and fro in darkness:

All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

6 I said, Ye are gods,

And all of you sons of the Most High.

7 Nevertheless ye shall die like men,

And fall like one of the princes.

8 Arise, O God, judge the earth;

For thou shalt inherit all the nations.
