< Psalms 82 >

1 A Melody of Asaph. God, hath taken his place in the august assembly, In the midst of the gods, will he judge.
A psalm of Asaph God [is] taking his stand in [the] congregation of God in [the] midst of [the] gods he gives judgment.
2 How long will ye judge perversely, And, the countenances of the lawless, uplift? (Selah)
Until when? will you judge injustice and [the] face of wicked [people] will you lift up (Selah)
3 Vindicate the weak and the fatherless, The oppressed and the poor, see righted;
Give judgment for [the] poor and [the] fatherless [the] afflicted and [the] poor vindicate.
4 Deliver the weak and the needy, Out of the hand of the lawless, make rescue.
Deliver [the] poor and [the] needy from [the] hand of wicked [people] rescue [them].
5 They know not, neither can they perceive, In darkness, they wander, All the foundations of the earth do shake.
Not they know - and not they understand in darkness they walk about they are shaken all [the] foundations of [the] earth.
6 I, said, Gods, ye are, Yea, sons of the Highest, are ye all;
I I said [are] gods you and [are] [the] children of [the] Most High all of you.
7 But indeed, like the earth-born, shall ye die! And, like one of the princes, shall ye fall!
Nevertheless like humankind you will die! and like one of the princes you will fall.
8 Arise! O God, judge thou the earth, For, thou, wilt inherit all the nations.
Arise! O God judge! the earth for you you have an inheritance among all the nations.
