Psalm 82
1599 Geneva Bible
82 1 The Prophet declaring God to be present among the Judges and Magistrates, 2 Reproveth their partiality. 3 And exhorteth them to do justice. 5 But seeing none amendment, 8 He desireth God to undertake the matter and execute justice himself.
A Psalm committeth to Aspah.
1 God standeth in the assembly of [a]gods: he judgeth among gods.
2 How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the [b]wicked? Selah.
3 Do right to the poor and fatherless: do justice to the poor and needy.
4 Deliver the poor and [c]needy: save them from the hand of the wicked.
5 They know not and understand nothing: they walk in darkness, albeit all the [d]foundations of the earth be moved.
6 I have said, Ye are gods, and ye all are children of the most High.
7 [e]But ye shall die as a man, and ye princes shall fall like others.
8 O God, arise, therefore judge thou the earth: for thou shalt inherit [f]all nations.

Salmo 82
Ang Pulong Sang Dios
Ang Dios Labaw sa Tanan nga Manugdumala
82 Ginapanguluhan sang Dios ang pagtilipon sang mga dios[a]
kag ginahukman niya sila.
2 Siling niya, “Hasta san-o pa bala kamo maghukom sang indi matarong?
Hasta san-o pa bala ninyo paboran ang mga malaot?
3 Hatagi ninyo sang hustisya ang mga wala sing ikasarang kag mga ilo.
Depensahi ninyo ang kinamatarong sang ginapigos nga mga kubos.
4 Luwasa ang mga wala sing ikasarang kag ang mga imol sa gahom sang malaot nga mga tawo!
5 “Wala kamo sing inalung-ong!
Wala kamo sing naintiendihan!
Nagakabuhi kamo sa kadulom, amo gani nga wala na sing kahusayan sa kalibutan.[b]
6 Ako, ang Labing Mataas nga Dios, nagsiling sa inyo nga mga dios kamo kag tanan kamo mga anak ko.
7 Pero mapatay kamo pareho sa tawo.
Madula ang inyo kabuhi pareho sa bisan sin-o nga pangulo sa kalibutan.”
8 Sige na, O Dios, hukmi ang tanan nga nasyon sa kalibutan, kay imo sila.
