(82) A Psalm for Asaph. God stands in the assembly of gods; and in the midst [of them] will judge gods.

How long will you⌃ judge unrighteously, and accept the persons of sinners? Pause.

Judge the orphan and poor: do justice to the low and needy.

Rescue the needy, and deliver the poor out of the hand of the sinner.

They know not, nor understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be shaken.

I have said, You⌃ are gods; and all [of you] children of the Most High.

But you⌃ die as men, and fall as one of the princes.

Arise, O God, judge the earth: for you shall inherit all nations.
