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. |
