Psalms 82

¹A Psalm of Asaph. God stands in the divine assembly; He judges among the gods (divine beings).

²How long will you judge unjustly And show partiality to the wicked? Selah.

³Vindicate the weak and fatherless; Do justice and maintain the rights of the afflicted and destitute.

⁴Rescue the weak and needy; Rescue them from the hand of the wicked.

⁵The rulers do not know nor do they understand; They walk on in the darkness [of complacent satisfaction]; All the foundations of the earth [the fundamental principles of the administration of justice] are shaken.

⁶I said, "You are[1] gods; Indeed, all of you are sons of the Most High.

⁷"Nevertheless you will die like men And fall like any one of the princes."

⁸Arise, O God, judge the earth! For to You belong all the nations.
