Chapter 82 |
| 1 | God standeth
in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods. |
| 2 | How
long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.
|
| 3 | Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and
needy. |
| 4 |
Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the
wicked. |
| 5 |
They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in
darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course. |
| 6 | I have
said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. |
| 7 |
But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes. |
| 8 | Arise,
O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations. |
