MSB PSA Chapter 82

God Presides in the Divine Assembly

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.
