Psalm 82
A Rebuke of Unjust
Judgments |
|
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; Joh.
10.34
|
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. |
