Salmi 82:4 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 82:4

Deliver the poor and needy
From his adversary and oppressor, who is mightier than he, and draws him to the judgment seat; when it is not in his power to defend himself against him, and get out of his hands, unless a righteous judge will show a regard to him and his cause; and sometimes even an unjust judge, through importunity, will do this, as everyone ought, and every righteous one will:

rid them out of the hand of the wicked;
this was what the poor widow importuned the unjust judge for, and obtained, ( Luke 18:3-5 ) .

Salmi 82:4 In-Context

3 Fate ragione al misero ed all’orfano; Fate diritto all’afflitto ed al povero.
4 Liberate il misero ed il bisognoso; Riscotetelo dalla mano degli empi.
5 Essi non hanno alcun conoscimento, nè senno; Camminano in tenebre; Tutti i fondamenti della terra sono smossi.
6 Io ho detto: Voi siete dii; E tutti siete figliuoli dell’Altissimo.
