Psalmi 82

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

A psalm of Asaph. God stands in the midst of his great assembly to judge among the gods.

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

How long will you make unfair judgments and show favoritism to the wicked? (Selah)

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

Defend the poor and orphans; support the rights of those who are oppressed and suffering.

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

Rescue the poor and those unable to help themselves; save them from the clutches of evil people.

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

They don't have any wisdom; they live in the dark; the foundations of the earth are shaken.

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

I say, “You are gods; all of you are children of the Most High.

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

But you will die like any human being, you will fall like any other leader.”

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

Stand up, Lord, and judge the earth, for all the nations belong to you.
