Psalms 82:1-8

LEB(i) 1 A psalm of Asaph.*
God stands in the divine assembly;* he administers judgment in the midst of the gods.* 2 "How long will you judge unjustly and show favoritism to the wicked?* Selah 3 Judge on behalf of the helpless and the orphan; provide justice to the afflicted and the poor. 4 Rescue the helpless and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked." 5 They do not know or consider.* They go about in the darkness, so that all the foundations of the earth are shaken. 6 I have said,* "You are gods, and sons of the Most High, all of you. 7 However, you will die like men,* and you will fall like one of the princes." 8 Rise up, O God, judge the earth, because you shall inherit* all the nations.
