PSALM 82

1God standeth in the assembly of ·God he judgeth among the gods.[#Hebrew: Elohim; #Hebrew: El]

2How long will ye judge unrighteously, and accept the person of the wicked? Selah.

3Judge the poor and the fatherless, do justice to the afflicted and the destitute;

4Rescue the poor and needy, deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

5They know not, neither do they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are moved.

6I have said, Ye are gods, and all of you are children of the Most High;

7But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.

8Arise, O God judge the earth; for thou shalt inherit all the nations.[#Hebrew: Elohim]
