Psalms82
God Presides in the Divine Assembly
1God presides in the divine assembly;He renders judgment among the gods:
2“How long will you judge unjustlyand show partiality to the wicked? Selah3Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless;uphold the rights of the afflicted and oppressed.4Rescue the weak and needy;save them from the hand of the wicked.5They do not know or understand;they wander in the darkness;all the foundations of the earth are shaken.6I have said, ‘You are gods;you are all sons of the Most High.’7But like mortals you will die,and like rulers you will fall.”
8Arise, O God, judge the earth,for all the nations are Your inheritance.
