Psalmorum 82

1 psalmus Asaph Deus stetit in synagoga deorum in medio autem Deus deiudicat

A Melody of Asaph. God, hath taken his place in the august assembly, In the midst of the gods, will he judge.

2 usquequo iudicatis iniquitatem et facies peccatorum sumitis diapsalma

How long will ye judge perversely, And, the countenances of the lawless, uplift? (Selah)

3 iudicate egenum et pupillum humilem et pauperem iustificate

Vindicate the weak and the fatherless, The oppressed and the poor, see righted;

4 eripite pauperem et egenum de manu peccatoris liberate

Deliver the weak and the needy, Out of the hand of the lawless, make rescue.

5 nescierunt neque intellexerunt in tenebris ambulant movebuntur omnia fundamenta terrae

They know not, neither can they perceive, In darkness, they wander, All the foundations of the earth do shake.

6 ego dixi dii estis et filii Excelsi omnes

I, said, Gods, ye are, Yea, sons of the Highest, are ye all;

7 vos autem sicut homines moriemini et sicut unus de principibus cadetis

But indeed, like the earth-born, shall ye die! And, like one of the princes, shall ye fall!

8 surge Deus iudica terram quoniam tu hereditabis in omnibus gentibus

Arise! O God, judge thou the earth, For, thou, wilt inherit all the nations.
