Psalmi 82

1 Psalam. Asafov. Bog ustaje u skupštini “bogova”, usred “bogova” sud održava.

A Psalm. Of Asaph. God is in the meeting-place of God; he is judging among the gods.

2 “Dokle ćete sudit' krivo, ić' na ruku bezbožnima?

How long will you go on judging falsely, having respect for the persons of evil-doers? (Selah)

3 Štitite slaba i sirotu, vratite pravicu jadniku i siromahu!

Give ear to the cause of the poor and the children without fathers; let those who are troubled and in need have their rights.

4 Izbavite potlačenog i ubogog: istrgnite ga iz ruku bezbožnih!”

Be the saviour of the poor and those who have nothing: take them out of the hand of the evil-doers.

5 Ne shvaćaju nit' razumiju, po mraku hodaju: poljuljani su svi temelji zemlje.

They have no knowledge or sense; they go about in the dark: all the bases of the earth are moved.

6 Rekoh doduše: “Vi ste bogovi i svi ste sinovi Višnjega!

I said, You are gods; all of you are the sons of the Most High:

7 Ali ćete k'o svi ljudi umrijeti, past ćete kao svatko od velikih!”

But you will come to death like men, falling like one of the rulers of the earth.

8 Ustani, Bože, i sudi zemlju, jer si s pravom gospodar svih naroda.

Up! O God, come as judge of the earth; for all the nations are your heritage.
