Psalms 82

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

١ مَزْمُورٌ لِآسَافَ ٱللهُ قَائِمٌ فِي مَجْمَعِ ٱللهِ. فِي وَسْطِ ٱلْآلِهَةِ يَقْضِي:

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

٢ «حَتَّى مَتَى تَقْضُونَ جَوْرًا وَتَرْفَعُونَ وُجُوهَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ؟ سِلَاهْ.

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

٣ اِقْضُوا لِلذَّلِيلِ وَلِلْيَتِيمِ. أَنْصِفُوا ٱلْمِسْكِينَ وَٱلْبَائِسَ.

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

٤ نَجُّوا ٱلْمِسْكِينَ وَٱلْفَقِيرَ. مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ أَنْقِذُوا.

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

٥ «لَا يَعْلَمُونَ وَلَا يَفْهَمُونَ. فِي ٱلظُّلْمَةِ يَتَمَشَّوْنَ. تَتَزَعْزَعُ كُلُّ أُسُسِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

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

٦ أَنَا قُلْتُ: إِنَّكُمْ آلِهَةٌ وَبَنُو ٱلْعَلِيِّ كُلُّكُمْ.

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

٧ لَكِنْ مِثْلَ ٱلنَّاسِ تَمُوتُونَ وَكَأَحَدِ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ تَسْقُطُونَ».

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

٨ قُمْ يَا ٱللهُ. دِنِ ٱلْأَرْضَ، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ تَمْتَلِكُ كُلَّ ٱلْأُمَمِ.
