Psalms Chapter 82

1 A Psalm of Asaph. God stands in the congregation of God. In the midst of the gods He judges.
2 How long will you judge unjustly and lift up the faces of the wicked? Selah.
3 Defend the poor and fatherless. Do justice to the afflicted and needy.
4 Deliver the poor and needy. Save them from the wicked.
5 They neither know nor will understand. They walk on in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 I have 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 princes.
8 Arise O God. Judge the earth. For you shall inherit in all nations.
