82:1 God stands in the assembly of El; in the midst of the gods he renders judgment. 82:2 He says, “How long will you make unjust legal decisions and show favoritism to the wicked? (Selah) 82:3 Defend the cause of the poor and the fatherless. Vindicate the oppressed and suffering. 82:4 Rescue the poor and needy. Deliver them from the power of the wicked. 82:5 They neither know nor understand. They stumble around in the dark, while all the foundations of the earth crumble. 82:6 I thought, ‘You are gods; all of you are sons of the Most High.’ 82:7 Yet you will die like mortals; you will fall like all the other rulers.” 82:8 Rise up, O God, and execute judgment on the earth! For you own all the nations.
82:8 A song, a psalm of Asaph.
