Psalms 82
1 God presides in the great assembly; 1 he gives judgment among the "gods":
2 "How long will you[a] defend the unjust 2 and show partiality to the wicked? Selah
3 Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; 3 maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
4 Rescue the weak and needy; 4 deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
5 "They know nothing, they understand nothing. 5 They walk about in darkness; 5 all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 "I said, 'You are "gods"; 6 you are all sons of the Most High.'
7 But you will die like mere men; 7 you will fall like every other ruler."
