Psalms 82

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

Zabbuli ya Asafu. Katonda akubiriza olukiiko lwe olukulu olw’omu ggulu, ng’alamula bakatonda.

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

Mulituusa ddi okusala emisango n’obukuusa, nga musalira abanafu?

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

Abanafu n’abatalina bakitaabwe mubalamulenga mu bwenkanya; abaavu n’abanyigirizibwa mubayambenga mu bwenkanya.

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

Mulwanirire abatalina maanyi n’abali mu kwetaaga, mubawonye; mubanunule nga mubaggya mu mikono gy’ababi.

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

Tebalina kye bamanyi, era tebategeera. Batambulira mu kizikiza; emisingi gy’ensi gyonna ginyeenyezebwa.

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

Njogedde nti, Muli bakatonda, era mwenna muli baana b’oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo.

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

“Naye mugenda kufa ng’abantu obuntu; muliggwaawo ng’abafuzi abalala bonna bwe baggwaawo.”

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

Ogolokoke, Ayi Katonda, olamule ensi; kubanga amawanga gonna gago.
