< Zaburi 82 >

1 Mungu amesimama katika kusanyiko la mbinguni; katikati ya miungu anahukumu.
A psalm for Asaph. God hath stood in the congregation of gods: and being in the midst of them he judgeth gods.
2 Hata lini mtahukumu bila haki na kuonesha upendeleo kwa waovu? (Selah)
How long will you judge unjustly: and accept the persons of the wicked?
3 Wateteeni maskini na yatima; dumisheni haki kwa aliyetaabishwa na fukara.
Judge for the needy and fatherless: do justice to the humble and the poor.
4 Muokoeni maskini na muhitaji; watoeni mkononi mwa waovu.
Rescue the poor; and deliver the needy out of the hand of the sinner.
5 Hawajui wala hawaelewi; hutembea gizani; misingi yote ya nchi imebomoka.
They have not known nor understood: they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be moved.
6 Mimi nilisema, “Ninyi ni miungu, na ninyi nyote wana wa Mungu aliye Juu.
I have said: You are gods and all of you the sons of the most High.
7 Hata hivyo mtakufa kama wanadamu na mtaanguka kama mmoja wa wakuu.”
But you like men shall die: and shall fall like one of the princes.
8 Uinuke, Ee Mungu, uihukumu nchi, maana unaurithi katika mataifa yote.
Arise, O God, judge thou the earth: for thou shalt inherit among all the nations.
