斥責不公正的審判

亞薩的詩。

82 上帝站在天庭的會中,
向眾神明宣佈祂的判決,
說:「你們不秉公行義,
偏袒惡人要到何時呢?(細拉)
你們要為窮人和孤兒主持公道,
為貧寒和受壓迫的人伸張正義。
要救助窮苦的人,
使他們脫離惡人的欺壓。
你們愚昧無知,
行在黑暗中,
大地的根基搖動。
我曾說你們都是神,
都是至高者的兒子,
但你們要跟世人一樣死去,
像人間的王侯一樣滅亡。」
上帝啊,求你起來審判世界,
因為世上的萬國都屬於你。

Unjust Judgments Rebuked.

A Psalm of Asaph.

82 God takes His (A)position in [a]His assembly;
He (B)judges in the midst of the (C)gods.
How long will you (D)judge unjustly
And (E)show partiality to the wicked? Selah
(F)Vindicate the weak and fatherless;
Do justice to the afflicted and destitute.
(G)Rescue the weak and needy;
Save them from the hand of the wicked.

They (H)do not know nor do they understand;
They (I)walk around in darkness;
All the (J)foundations of the earth are shaken.
[b]I (K)said, “You are gods,
And all of you are (L)sons of the Most High.
Nevertheless (M)you will die like men,
And fall like (N)one of the princes.”
(O)Arise, God, (P)judge the earth!
For You (Q)possess all the nations.

Salmo 82

Dios, juez supremo

Salmo de Asaf.

82 Dios ocupa Su lugar(A) en Su congregación;
Él juzga(B) en medio de los jueces[a](C).
¿Hasta cuándo juzgarán ustedes injustamente(D)
Y favorecerán a los impíos(E)? (Selah)
Defiendan(F) al débil y al huérfano;
Hagan justicia al afligido y al menesteroso.
Rescaten al débil y al necesitado(G);
Líbrenlos de la mano de los impíos.
¶Ellos no saben ni entienden(H);
Caminan en tinieblas(I);
Son sacudidos todos los cimientos de la tierra(J).
Yo dije: «Ustedes son dioses(K),
Y todos son hijos del Altísimo(L).
-»Sin embargo, como hombres morirán(M),
Y caerán como cualquiera de los príncipes(N)».
¡Levántate(O), oh Dios, juzga la tierra(P)!
Porque Tú posees todas las naciones(Q).

  1. 82:1 Lit. dioses.

Psalm 82

A psalm of Asaph.

God presides in the great assembly;
    he renders judgment(A) among the “gods”:(B)

“How long will you[a] defend the unjust
    and show partiality(C) to the wicked?[b](D)
Defend the weak and the fatherless;(E)
    uphold the cause of the poor(F) and the oppressed.
Rescue the weak and the needy;
    deliver them from the hand of the wicked.

“The ‘gods’ know nothing, they understand nothing.(G)
    They walk about in darkness;(H)
    all the foundations(I) of the earth are shaken.

“I said, ‘You are “gods”;(J)
    you are all sons of the Most High.’
But you will die(K) like mere mortals;
    you will fall like every other ruler.”

Rise up,(L) O God, judge(M) the earth,
    for all the nations are your inheritance.(N)
