Psalm 82 (New International Version)
View In My BibleA psalm of Asaph.
1 God presides in the great assembly; he gives judgment1 among the "gods":2 2 "How long will youa defend the unjust and show partiality3 to the wicked?4 "Selah" 3 Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless;5 maintain the rights of the poor6 and oppressed. 4 Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked. 5 "They know nothing, they understand nothing.7 They walk about in darkness;8 all the foundations9 of the earth are shaken. 6 "I said, 'You are "gods";10 you are all sons of the Most High.' 7 But you will die11 like mere men; you will fall like every other ruler." 8 Rise up,12 O God, judge13 the earth, for all the nations are your inheritance.14Scripture quoted by permission.
