Psalms 82

God presides in the great assembly. He judges among the gods.

God standeth in the congregation of God; He judgeth among the gods.

“How long will you judge unjustly, and show partiality to the wicked?” Selah.

How long will ye judge unjustly, And respect the persons of the wicked? [Selah

“Defend the weak, the poor, and the fatherless. Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.

Judge the poor and fatherless: Do justice to the afflicted and destitute.

Rescue the weak and needy. Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.”

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

They don’t know, neither do they understand. They walk back and forth in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

They know not, neither do they understand; They walk to and fro in darkness: All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

I said, “You are gods, all of you are sons of the Most High.

I said, Ye are gods, And all of you sons of the Most High.

Nevertheless you shall die like men, and fall like one of the rulers.”

Nevertheless ye shall die like men, And fall like one of the princes.

Arise, God, judge the earth, for you inherit all of the nations.

Arise, O God, judge the earth; For thou shalt inherit all the nations.
