< اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 82 >
مَزْمُورٌ لِآسَافَ ٱللهُ قَائِمٌ فِي مَجْمَعِ ٱللهِ. فِي وَسْطِ ٱلْآلِهَةِ يَقْضِي: | ١ 1 |
God presides in the great assembly. He judges among the deities.
«حَتَّى مَتَى تَقْضُونَ جَوْرًا وَتَرْفَعُونَ وُجُوهَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ؟ سِلَاهْ. | ٢ 2 |
“How long will you judge unjustly, and show partiality to the wicked?” (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.
اِقْضُوا لِلذَّلِيلِ وَلِلْيَتِيمِ. أَنْصِفُوا ٱلْمِسْكِينَ وَٱلْبَائِسَ. | ٣ 3 |
“Defend the weak, the poor, and the fatherless. Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
نَجُّوا ٱلْمِسْكِينَ وَٱلْفَقِيرَ. مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ أَنْقِذُوا. | ٤ 4 |
Rescue the weak and needy. Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.”
«لَا يَعْلَمُونَ وَلَا يَفْهَمُونَ. فِي ٱلظُّلْمَةِ يَتَمَشَّوْنَ. تَتَزَعْزَعُ كُلُّ أُسُسِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٥ 5 |
They don’t know, neither do they understand. They walk back and forth in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
أَنَا قُلْتُ: إِنَّكُمْ آلِهَةٌ وَبَنُو ٱلْعَلِيِّ كُلُّكُمْ. | ٦ 6 |
I said, “You are elohim ·judges, gods·, all of you are sons of haElyon [the Most High].
لَكِنْ مِثْلَ ٱلنَّاسِ تَمُوتُونَ وَكَأَحَدِ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ تَسْقُطُونَ». | ٧ 7 |
Nevertheless you shall die like men, and fall like one of the rulers.”
قُمْ يَا ٱللهُ. دِنِ ٱلْأَرْضَ، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ تَمْتَلِكُ كُلَّ ٱلْأُمَمِ. | ٨ 8 |
Arise, God, judge the earth, for you inherit all of the nations.
