Psalms 82

   |   

Unjust Judgments Rebuked.

A Psalm of Asaph.

1 God (C1)stands in the divine assembly;
He (C2)judges among the (C3)gods (divine beings).

2 How long will you (C1)judge unjustly
And (C2)show partiality to the wicked? Selah.

3 (C1)Vindicate the weak and fatherless;
Do justice and maintain the rights of the afflicted and destitute.

4 (C1)Rescue the weak and needy;
Rescue them from the hand of the wicked.

5 The rulers (C1)do not know nor do they understand;
They (C2)walk on in the darkness of complacent satisfaction;
All the (C3)foundations of the earth the fundamental principles of the administration of justice are shaken.

6 I (C1)said, "You are (F1)gods;
Indeed, all of you are (C2)sons of the Most High. (VR1)

7 "Nevertheless (C1)you will die like men
And fall like any (C2)one of the princes."

8 (C1)Arise, O God, (C2)judge the earth!
For to You (C3)belong all the nations. (VR1)
