←Prev   Psalms 82 as rendered by/in  Next→ 


82:1  God takes his stand in the divine council; he gives judgment among the gods:
82:2  “How long will you judge unjustly by granting favor to the wicked? Selah
82:3  Give justice to the lowly and the orphan; maintain the right of the poor and the destitute!
82:4  Rescue the lowly and the needy. Deliver them from the power of the wicked!
82:5  They don’t know; they don’t understand; they wander around in the dark. All the earth’s foundations shake.
82:6  I hereby declare, “You are gods, children of the Most High—all of you!
82:7  But you will die like mortals; you will fall down like any prince.”
82:8  Rise up, God! Judge the earth because you hold all nations in your possession!
