Salamo 82

1 Salamo nataon’ i Asafa.

A Psalm for Asaph. God stands in the assembly of gods; and in the midst [of them] will judge gods.

2 Mandra-pahoviana no hitsarànareo tsy marina ka ihenaranareo maso ny ratsy fanahy? (Sela)

How long will ye judge unrighteously, and accept the persons of sinners? (Pause)

3 Alaharo ny tenin’ ny mahantra sy ny kamboty; omeo rariny ny ory sy ny malahelo;

Judge the orphan and poor: do justice to the low and needy.

4 Vonjeo ny mahantra sy ny malahelo; afaho amin’ ny tanan’ ny ratsy fanahy izy.

Rescue the needy, and deliver the poor out of the hand of the sinner.

5 Tsy mahalala na mahazo an-tsaina ireny; ao amin’ ny maizina no andehanany; mihorohoro ny fanambanin’ ny tany rehetra.

They know not, nor understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be shaken.

6 Hoy izaho: Andriamanitra ianareo, ary zanaky ny Avo Indrindra ianareo rehetra;

I have said, Ye are gods; and all [of you] children of the Most High.

7 Kanjo ho faty tahaka ny olona ihany ianareo, ary samy ho lavo tahaka ny anankiray amin’ ny lehibe.

But ye die as men, and fall as one of the princes.

8 Mitsangàna, Andriamanitra ô, tsarao ny tany; fa Hianao no handova ny firenena rehetra.

Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.
