God Presides in the Divine Assembly

82 

82 A Psalm of Asaph. God presides in the divine assembly; He renders judgment among the gods:

2 “How long will you judge unjustly[fn] and show partiality to the wicked? Selah

3 Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; uphold the rights of the afflicted and oppressed.

4 Rescue the weak and needy; save them from the hand of the wicked.

5 They do not know or understand; they wander in the darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.

6 I have said, ‘You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High.’[fn]

7 But like mortals you will die, and like rulers you will fall.”

8 Arise, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are Your inheritance.
