Psalmus Asaph.
Deus stetit in synagoga deorum; in medio autem deos dijudicat.

A psalm for Asaph.
God hath stood in the congregation of gods: and being in the midst of them he judgeth gods.

(A psalm. Of Asaph.)
See, where he stands, the Ruler of all, among the rulers assembled, comes for-ward to pronounce judgement on the rulers themselves!

Usquequo judicatis iniquitatem, et facies peccatorum sumitis?

How long will you judge unjustly: and accept the persons of the wicked?

Will you never cease perverting justice, espousing the cause of the wicked?

Judicate egeno et pupillo; humilem et pauperem justificate.

Judge for the needy and fatherless: do justice to the humble and the poor.

Come, give redress to the poor and the friendless, do right to the afflicted and the destitute;

Eripite pauperem, et egenum de manu peccatoris liberate.

Rescue the poor; and deliver the needy out of the hand of the sinner.

to you need and poverty look for deliverance, rescue them from the hand of the wickedness.

Nescierunt, neque intellexerunt; in tenebris ambulant: movebuntur omnia fundamenta terræ.

They have not known nor understood: they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be moved.

But no, ignorant and unperceiving, they grope their way in darkness; see how unstable are the props of earth!

Ego dixi: Dii estis, et filii Excelsi omnes.

I have said: You are gods and all of you the sons of the most High.

Gods you are, I myself have declared it; favoured children, every one of you, of the most High;

Vos autem sicut homines moriemini, et sicut unus de principibus cadetis.

But you like men shall die: and shall fall like one of the princes.

yet the doom of mortals awaits you, you shall fall with the fall of human princes.

Surge, Deus, judica terram, quoniam tu hæreditabis in omnibus gentibus.

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

Bestir thyself, Lord, bring the world to judgement; all the nations are thy own domain.
