Salmi 81

BIBBIA RICCIOTTI	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 - Salmo di Asaf. Iddio si leva nel consenso degli dèi:[piantatosi] nel mezzo, fa giudizio degli dèi:	1 For the leader; "upon the gittith." Of Asaph.
2 «Sino a quando giudicherete iniquamente e farete parzialità a' malvagi?	2 Sing joyfully to God our strength; shout in triumph to the God of Jacob!
3 Rendete giustizia al poverello e all'orfano; al misero e all'indigente fate ragione.	3 Take up a melody, sound the timbrel, the sweet-sounding harp and lyre.
4 Salvate il poverello e il mendico, dalle mani dell'empio liberate[li].	4 Blow the trumpet at the new moon, at the full moon, on our solemn feast.
5 [Ma] costoro non sanno nè intendono, nelle tenebre van brancolando: son scosse tutte le fondamenta della terra!	5 For this is a law in Israel, an edict of the God of Jacob,
6 Io ho detto [altra volta]: Voi siete dèi, e figliuoli dell'Altissimo tutti!	6 Who made it a decree for Joseph when he came out of the land of Egypt. II I hear a new oracle:
7 Ma voi al par degli uomini morrete, e come uno [qualsiasi] dè principi [umani] cadrete».	7 "I relieved their shoulders of the burden; their hands put down the basket.
8 Sorgi, o Dio, giudica la terra, perchè tuo dominio saran tutte le genti.	8 In distress you called and I rescued you; unseen, I spoke to you in thunder; At the waters of Meribah I tested you and said: Selah
	9 'Listen, my people, I give you warning! If only you will obey me, Israel!
	10 There must be no foreign god among you; you must not worship an alien god.
	11 I, the LORD, am your God, who brought you up from the land of Egypt. Open wide your mouth that I may fill it.'
	12 But my people did not listen to my words; Israel did not obey me.
	13 So I gave them over to hardness of heart; they followed their own designs.
	14 But even now if my people would listen, if Israel would walk in my paths,
	15 In a moment I would subdue their foes, against their enemies unleash my hand.
	16 Those who hate the LORD would tremble, their doom sealed forever.
	17 But Israel I would feed with the finest wheat, satisfy them with honey from the rock."
