Psalms 82

NKJV

NIV

1 A Psalm of Asaph. God stands in the congregation of the mighty; He judges among the gods.
1 God presides in the great assembly; he renders judgment among the “gods”:
2 How long will you judge unjustly, And show partiality to the wicked? Selah
2 “How long will you defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked?
3 Defend the poor and fatherless; Do justice to the afflicted and needy.
3 Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.
4 Deliver the poor and needy; Free them from the hand of the wicked.
4 Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
5 They do not know, nor do they understand; They walk about in darkness; All the foundations of the earth are unstable.
5 “The ‘gods’ know nothing, they understand nothing. They walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 I said, "You are gods, And all of you are children of the Most High.
6 “I said, ‘You are “gods”; you are all sons of the Most High.’
7 But you shall die like men, And fall like one of the princes."
7 But you will die like mere mortals; you will fall like every other ruler.”
8 Arise, O God, judge the earth; For You shall inherit all nations.
8 Rise up, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are your inheritance.
