Psalm 82
God Stands in Judgment
A Psalm of Asaph.
1God takes His stand in the congregation of ▼▼Heb El; the one true God
God;He judges in the midst of ▼
▼Or rulers
gods.2How long will you judge unrighteously
And show partiality to the wicked? ▼
▼Selah may mean Pause, Crescendo, Musical Interlude
Selah.3Give justice to the poor and the orphan;
Justify the afflicted and destitute.
4Protect the poor and needy;
Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.
5They do not know and do not understand;
They walk about in darkness;
All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 ▼
▼ Lit I, on my part
I said, “You are gods,And all of you are sons of the Most High.
7“Nevertheless you will die like men
And you will fall like any one of the princes.”
8Arise, O God, judge the earth!
For it is You who will inherit all the nations.
