Psalms 82

1 — A Psalm of Asaph. God hath stood in the company of God, In the midst God doth judge.

Abụ Ọma Asaf. Chineke na-ewere ọnọdụ ịchị isi nʼetiti ọgbakọ dị ukwuu; ọ na-ekpebi ikpe nʼetiti chi niile.

2 Till when do ye judge perversely? And the face of the wicked lift up? (Selah)

Ruo ole mgbe ka unu ga-anọgide na-ekpe ikpe na-ezighị ezi? Ruo ole mgbe ka unu ga na-egosi ndị ajọ omume ihuọma? (Sela)

3 Judge ye the weak and fatherless, The afflicted and the poor declare righteous.

Kperenụ ndị na-adịghị ike na ndị na-enweghị nna ikpe ziri ezi; hụnụ na ndị ogbenye na ndị a na-emegbu nwetara ihe ruuru ha.

4 Let the weak and needy escape, From the hand of the wicked deliver them.

Gbapụtanụ ndị na-adịghị ike na ndị nọ na mkpa; napụta ha site nʼaka ndị ajọ omume.

5 They knew not, nor do they understand, In darkness they walk habitually, Moved are all the foundations of earth.

Ha amaghị ihe ọbụla, ha aghọtaghị ihe ọbụla. Ha na-ejegharị nʼọchịchịrị; ntọala niile nke ụwa na-ama jijiji.

6 I — I have said, 'Gods ye [are], And sons of the Most High — all of you,

“Asịrị m, ‘Unu bụ “chi,” unu niile bụ ụmụ ndị ikom nke Onye kachasị ihe niile elu.’

7 But as man ye die, and as one of the heads ye fall,

Ma unu ga-anwụ ọnwụ dịka mmadụ ndị ọzọ; unu ga-ada dịka ndị ọchịchị ọzọ.”

8 Rise, O God, judge the earth, For Thou hast inheritance among all the nations!

O Chineke, bilie kpee ụwa ikpe, nʼihi na mba niile bụ ihe nketa gị.
