1Бог застана в събранието на боговете; всред боговете произнесе съд:2докога ще съдите несправедливо и ще показвате пристрастие към нечестивците? (Вт 1:17; 2 Лет 19:6)3Давайте правосъдие на сиромах и на сирак; бъдете справедливи към потиснат и беден;4отървайте сиромаха и бедния, изтръгвайте го из ръката на нечестивците. (Пр 24:11; Ис 1:17)5Не знаят, не разбират, в тъма ходят; всички земни основи се клатят. (1 Йн 1:6)6Аз рекох: вие сте богове, вие сте всички синове на Всевишния; (Йн 10:34)7но вие ще умрете като човеци, и ще паднете като всички князе. (Ез 31:14)8Дигни се, Боже, съди земята, защото Ти ще наследиш всички народи. (Пс 2:8; Евр 1:2)
1To the choirmaster: according to The Gittith.[1] Of Asaph. Sing aloud to God our strength; shout for joy to the God of Jacob! (Вт 32:43; Пс 8:1; Пс 50:1; Пс 66:1; Пс 84:1)2Raise a song; sound the tambourine, the sweet lyre with the harp. (Изх 15:20; Пс 71:22)3Blow the trumpet at the new moon, at the full moon, on our feast day. (Лев 23:24; Чис 10:10; Чис 29:1)4For it is a statute for Israel, a rule[2] of the God of Jacob.5He made it a decree in Joseph when he went out over[3] the land of Egypt. I hear a language I had not known: (Изх 11:4; Вт 28:49; Пс 77:15; Пс 78:5; Пс 78:67; Пс 80:1; Пс 114:1; Пс 122:4; Ер 5:15)6“I relieved your[4] shoulder of the burden; your hands were freed from the basket. (Изх 1:11; Ис 9:4; Ис 10:27)7In distress you called, and I delivered you; I answered you in the secret place of thunder; I tested you at the waters of Meribah. (Изх 2:23; Изх 14:10; Изх 17:7; Изх 19:19; Чис 20:13; Пс 18:11; Пс 50:15)8Hear, O my people, while I admonish you! O Israel, if you would but listen to me! (Пс 50:7)9There shall be no strange god among you; you shall not bow down to a foreign god. (Изх 20:3; Вт 32:12; Пс 44:20; Ис 43:12)10I am the Lord your God, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it. (Изх 20:2; Пс 37:3)11“But my people did not listen to my voice; Israel would not submit to me. (Изх 32:1; Вт 32:15; Вт 32:18; Пр 1:25; Пр 1:30)12So I gave them over to their stubborn hearts, to follow their own counsels. (Вт 29:19; Йов 8:4; Пс 106:43; Ер 7:24; Мих 6:16; Д А 7:42; Д А 14:16; Рим 1:24; Рим 1:26)13Oh, that my people would listen to me, that Israel would walk in my ways! (Вт 5:29; Вт 5:33; Вт 32:29; Ис 48:18)14I would soon subdue their enemies and turn my hand against their foes. (Ам 1:8)15Those who hate the Lord would cringe toward him, and their fate would last forever. (Пс 18:44)16But he would feed you[5] with the finest of the wheat, and with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.” (Вт 32:13; Вт 32:14; Йов 29:6; Пс 147:14; Ез 16:19)
