Psalms 82

    A psalm of Asaph.
  1. God presides in the great assembly; he renders judgment among the "gods":
  2. "How long will you[1] defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked?[2]
  3. Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.
  4. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
  5. "The 'gods' know nothing, they understand nothing. They walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
  6. "I said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.'
  7. But you will die like mere mortals; you will fall like every other ruler."
  8. Rise up, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are your inheritance.
  1. The Hebrew is plural.
  2. The Hebrew has 'Selah' (a word of uncertain meaning) here.
