Psalms 82:2-7

2How long will you 1judge unjustly And 2show partiality to the wicked? 3Selah.34Vindicate the weak and fatherless; Do justice to the afflicted and destitute.45Rescue the weak and needy; Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

5They 6do not know nor do they understand; They 7walk about in darkness; All the 8foundations of the earth are shaken.69I 10said, “You are gods, And all of you are 11sons of the Most High.7Nevertheless 12you will die like men And fall like any 13one of the princes.”
