Psalms 82: A Psalm of A'saph.
God has taken his place in the divine council;
in the midst of the gods he holds judgment
"How long will you judge unjustly
and show partiality to the wicked?"
Selah
Give justice to the weak and the fatherless;
maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute.
Rescue the weak and the needy;
deliver them from the hand of the wicked."
They have neither knowledge nor understanding,
they walk about in darkness;
all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
I say, "You are gods, sons of the Most High, all of you;
nevertheless, you shall die like men,
and fall like any prince.
(You shall) fall as one man, O princes!"
Arise, O God, judge the earth;
for to thee belong all the nations.
