Psalms 82 · Clearspring

A Psalm of Asaph.

God Presides in the Divine Assembly

¹<A Psalm. Of Asaph.> God is in the meeting-place of God; he is judging among the gods.+ ²How long will you go on judging falsely, having respect for the persons of evil-doers? (Selah.)+ ³Give ear to the cause of the poor and the children without fathers; let those who are troubled and in need have their rights.+ ⁴Be the saviour of the poor and those who have nothing: take them out of the hand of the evil-doers.+ ⁵They have no knowledge or sense; they go about in the dark: all the bases of the earth are moved.+ ⁶I said, You are gods; all of you are the sons of the Most High:+ ⁷But you will come to death like men, falling like one of the rulers of the earth.+ ⁸Up! O God, come as judge of the earth; for all the nations are your heritage.+
