Psalms 82

1 A Psalm of Asaph. God standeth in the assembly of God, he judgeth among the gods.

ψαλμὸς τῷ Ασαφ ὁ θεὸς ἔστη ἐν συναγωγῇ θεῶν ἐν μέσῳ δὲ θεοὺς διακρίνει

2 How long will ye judge unrighteously, and accept the person of the wicked? (Selah)

ἕως πότε κρίνετε ἀδικίαν καὶ πρόσωπα ἁμαρτωλῶν λαμβάνετε διάψαλμα

3 Judge the poor and the fatherless, do justice to the afflicted and the destitute;

κρίνατε ὀρφανὸν καὶ πτωχόν ταπεινὸν καὶ πένητα δικαιώσατε

4 Rescue the poor and needy, deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

ἐξέλεσθε πένητα καὶ πτωχόν ἐκ χειρὸς ἁμαρτωλοῦ ῥύσασθε

5 They know not, neither do they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are moved.

οὐκ ἔγνωσαν οὐδὲ συνῆκαν ἐν σκότει διαπορεύονται σαλευθήσονται πάντα τὰ θεμέλια τῆς γῆς

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

ἐγὼ εἶπα θεοί ἐστε καὶ υἱοὶ ὑψίστου πάντες

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

ὑμεῖς δὲ ὡς ἄνθρωποι ἀποθνῄσκετε καὶ ὡς εἷς τῶν ἀρχόντων πίπτετε

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

ἀνάστα ὁ θεός κρῖνον τὴν γῆν ὅτι σὺ κατακληρονομήσεις ἐν πᾶσιν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν
