Psalm 82 – NIRV & NAV

New International Reader’s Version

Psalm 82:1-8

Psalm 82

A psalm of Asaph.

1God takes his place at the head of a large gathering of leaders.

He announces his decisions among them.

2He says, “How long will you stand up for those who aren’t fair to others?

How long will you show mercy to sinful people?

3Stand up for the weak and for children whose fathers have died.

Protect the rights of people who are poor or treated badly.

4Save those who are weak and needy.

Save them from the power of sinful people.

5“You leaders don’t know anything.

You don’t understand anything.

You are in the dark about what is right.

Law and order have been destroyed all over the world.

6“I said, ‘You leaders are like gods.

You are all children of the Most High God.’

7But you will die, like mere human beings.

You will die like every other leader.”

8God, rise up. Judge the earth.

All the nations belong to you.

مزمور 82:1-8

الْمَزْمُورُ الثَّانِي وَالثَّمَانُونَ

مَزْمُورٌ لآسَافَ.

1اللهُ يَتَرَأَّسُ سَاحَةَ قَضَائِهِ، وَعَلَى القُضَاةِ يُصْدِرُ حُكْماً. 2حَتَّى مَتَى تَقْضُونَ بِالظُّلْمِ وَتَنْحَازُونَ إِلَى الأَشْرَارِ؟ 3احْكُمُوا لِلذَّلِيلِ وَالْيَتِيمِ. وَأَنْصِفُوا الْمِسْكِينَ وَالْبَائِسَ. 4أَنْقِذُوا الْمِسْكِينَ وَالْفَقِيرَ؛ أَنْقِذُوهُمَا مِنْ قَبْضَةِ الأَشْرَارِ.

5هُمْ مِنْ غَيْرِ مَعْرِفَةٍ وَفَهْمٍ، يَتَمَشَّوْنَ فِي الظُّلْمَةِ وَتَتَزَعْزَعُ أُسُسُ الأَرْضِ مِنْ كَثْرَةِ الْجَوْرِ. 6أَنَا قُلْتُ: «إِنَّكُمْ آلِهَةٌ، وَجَمِيعَكُمْ بَنُو الْعَلِيِّ. 7لَكِنَّكُمْ سَتَمُوتُونَ كَالْبَشَرِ، وَتَنْتَهِي حَيَاتُكُمْ مِثْلَ كُلِّ الرُّؤَسَاءِ». 8قُمْ يَا اللهُ قُمْ. دِنِ الأَرْضَ، لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ تَمْتَلِكُ الأُمَمَ بِأَسْرِهَا.
