Rescue the Weak and Needy
A Psalm of (A)Asaph.
82 (B)God (C)has taken his place in the divine council;
in the midst of (D)the gods he (E)holds judgment:

and (F)show partiality to (G)the wicked? Selah
3 (H)Give justice to (I)the weak and the fatherless;
(J)maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute.
4 (K)Rescue the weak and the needy;
(L)deliver them from the hand of the wicked.”

(N)they walk about in darkness;
(O)all the foundations of the earth are (P)shaken.
6 (Q)I said, “You are gods,
sons of the Most High, all of you;
7 nevertheless, like men (R)you shall die,
and fall like any prince.”[a]

诗篇 82
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
祈願 神審判不公的領袖
亞薩的詩。
82 神站在大能者的會中，
在眾神之中施行審判，說：（本節在《馬索拉文本》包括細字標題）
2 “你們不按公義審判，
偏袒惡人，要到幾時呢？（細拉）
3 你們要為貧寒的人和孤兒伸冤，
為困苦和窮乏的人伸張正義。
4 要搭救貧寒和窮困的人，
救他們脫離惡人的手。”
5 他們沒有知識，也不明白，
在黑暗中走來走去；
大地的一切根基都搖動了。
6 我曾說過：“你們都是神，
是至高者的兒子。
7 然而，你們要像世人一樣死亡，
像世上任何一位領袖一樣倒斃。”
8 神啊！求你起來，審判大地，
因為萬國都是你的產業。
