Chapter 82
1 God presides in the great assembly . He judges amongst the gods.
2 " How long will you judge unjustly , and show partiality to the wicked ?" Selah .
3 " Defend the weak , the poor , and the fatherless . Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed .
4 Rescue the weak and needy . Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked ."
5 They don’t know , neither do they understand . They walk back and forth in darkness . All the foundations of the earth are shaken .
6 I said, " You are gods, all of you are sons of the Most High .
7 Nevertheless you shall die like men , and fall like one of the rulers ."
8 Arise , God, judge the earth, for you inherit all of the nations .
