Psaumes 82
Louis Segond
82 Psaume d'Asaph. Dieu se tient dans l'assemblée de Dieu; Il juge au milieu des dieux.
2 Jusques à quand jugerez-vous avec iniquité, Et aurez-vous égard à la personne des méchants? Pause.
3 Rendez justice au faible et à l'orphelin, Faites droit au malheureux et au pauvre,
4 Sauvez le misérable et l'indigent, Délivrez-les de la main des méchants.
5 Ils n'ont ni savoir ni intelligence, Ils marchent dans les ténèbres; Tous les fondements de la terre sont ébranlés.
6 J'avais dit: Vous êtes des dieux, Vous êtes tous des fils du Très Haut.
7 Cependant vous mourrez comme des hommes, Vous tomberez comme un prince quelconque.
8 Lève-toi, ô Dieu, juge la terre! Car toutes les nations t'appartiennent.
Psalm 82
New King James Version
A Plea for Justice
A Psalm of Asaph.
82 God (A)stands in the congregation of [a]the mighty;
He judges among (B)the [b]gods.
2 How long will you judge unjustly,
And (C)show partiality to the wicked? Selah
3 [c]Defend the poor and fatherless;
Do justice to the afflicted and (D)needy.
4 Deliver the poor and needy;
Free them from the hand of the wicked.
5 They do not know, nor do they understand;
They walk about in darkness;
All the (E)foundations of the earth are [d]unstable.
6 I said, (F)“You are [e]gods,
And all of you are children of the Most High.
7 But you shall die like men,
And fall like one of the princes.”
8 Arise, O God, judge the earth;
(G)For You shall inherit all nations.

God Stands in Judgment
A Psalm of Asaph.
82 God takes His (A)stand in the congregation of [a]God;
He (B)judges in the midst of [b](C)gods.
2 How long will you (D)judge unrighteously
And (E)show partiality to the wicked? [c]Selah.
3 (F)Give justice to the poor and the orphan;
Justify the afflicted and destitute.
4 (G)Protect the poor and needy;
Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.
5 They (H)do not know and do not understand;
They (I)walk about in darkness;
All the (J)foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 [d]I (K)said, “You are gods,
And all of you are (L)sons of the Most High.
7 Nevertheless (M)you will die like men
And you will fall like any (N)one of the princes.”
8 (O)Arise, O God, (P)judge the earth!
For it is You who (Q)will inherit all the nations.
