Psalms 82

A Psalm of Asaph.

1 God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.*82.1 of Asaph: or, for Asaph

2 How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.

3 Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.*82.3 Defend: Heb. Judge

4 Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.

5 They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.*82.5 out…: Heb. moved

6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.

7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.

8 Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.

祈愿 神审判不公的领袖

亚萨的诗。 1 　神站在大能者的会中，

在众神之中施行审判，说：*本节在《马索拉文本》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。
