Psalms 82
A psalm of Asaph.
1 God standeth in God’s assembly, He judgeth in the midst of the gods. 2"How long will ye judge unjustly, And favor the cause of the wicked? [Pause.] 3Defend the poor and the fatherless; Do justice to the wretched and the needy! 4Deliver the poor and the destitute; Save them from the hand of the wicked! 5They are without knowledge and without understanding; They walk in darkness: Therefore all the foundations of the land are shaken. 6I have said, Ye are gods, And all of you children of the Most High; 7But ye shall die like men, And fall like the rest of the princes." 8Arise, O God! judge the earth! For all the nations are thy possession.
