A psalm of Asaph
82
📚God stands in the congregationof the mighty;
he judges among the gods✭.
2 📚“How long✭ will you judge
unjustly,
and show favouritism to
the wicked? Selah
3 📚✭Defend the poor
and fatherless.
Deal out justice to the afflicted
and needy.
4 📚Deliver the poor and needy.
Rescue them from the hand
of the wicked.
5 📚They✭ do not know✭,
they do not understand,
they walk on in darkness.
All the foundations of the earth
are shaken.
6 📚✭I said, ‘You are gods,
and all of you are
children of the Most High’.
7 📚✭But you will die like men,
and fall like one of the rulers”.
8 📚✭Arise, O God, judge the earth,
for you will inherit all nations.
