Psalms 82

1 A Psalm of Asaph. God standeth in the congregation of God; in the midst of the judges He judgeth:

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

2 'How long will ye judge unjustly, and respect the persons of the wicked? (Selah)

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

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

Štitite slaba i sirotu, vratite pravicu jadniku i siromahu!

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

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

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

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

6 I said: Ye are godlike beings, and all of you sons of the Most High.

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

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

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

8 Arise, O God, judge the earth; for Thou shalt possess all nations.

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