Psalms 82

   |   

God Stands in Judgment

A Psalm of Asaph.

1 God takes His (C1)stand in the congregation of (F1)God;
He (C2)judges in the midst of (F2)(C3)gods.

2 How long will you (C1)judge unrighteously
And (C2)show partiality to the wicked? Selah
may mean Pause, Crescendo, Musical Interlude">(F1)Selah.

3 (C1)Give justice to the poor and the orphan;
Justify the afflicted and destitute.

4 (C1)Protect the poor and needy;
Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

5 They (C1)do not know and do not understand;
They (C2)walk about in darkness;
All the (C3)foundations of the earth are shaken.

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

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

8 (C1)Arise, O God, (C2)judge the earth!
For it is You who (C3)will inherit all the nations.
