Psalms Psalm 82

1God standeth in the assembly of gods: he judgeth among gods.

2How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.

3Do right to the poor and fatherless: do justice to the poor and needy.

4Deliver the poor and needy: save them from the hand of the wicked.

5They know not and understand nothing: they walk in darkness, albeit all the foundations of the earth be moved.

6I have said, Ye are gods, and ye all are children of the most High.

7But ye shall die as a man, and ye princes shall fall like others.

8O God, arise, therefore judge thou the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.
