시편 82

Chapter Summary

아삽의 짧은 시편으로 하나님이 신들의 회의에 나타나 타락한 신들, 혹은 불의한 재판관들을 꾸짖으신다. 가난한 자와 고아와 약자를 변호하지 않는다고 책망하신다. 너희는 신같이 죽으리라 선언하시며 하나님께 땅을 심판해달라고 촉구한다.

1God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.

2How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.

3Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.

4Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.

5They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.

6I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.

7But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.

8Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.
