82:1  One of Asaph’s songs of praise. God stands in the assembly of the gods. He stands as judge among the judges.

82:4  Help those who are poor and helpless. Save them from those who are evil.
82:5  “They don’t know what is happening. They don’t understand! They don’t know what they are doing. Their world is falling down around them!”
82:6  I, God Most High, say, “You are gods, my own sons.
82:7  But you will die as all people must die. Your life will end like that of any ruler.”
82:8  Get up, God! You be the judge! You be the leader over all the nations!
