82:1 A psalm of Asaph. God presides in the great assembly; he gives judgment among the "gods":
82:2 "How long will you defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked? Selah
82:3 Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
82:4 Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
82:5 "They know nothing, they understand nothing. They walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
82:6 "I said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.'
82:7 But you will die like mere men; you will fall like every other ruler."
82:8 Rise up, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are your inheritance.
