Psalms 82

A Psalm of Asaph.of Asaph: or, for Asaph.

1GodH430 standethH5324 in the congregationH5712 of the mightyH410; he judgethH8199 amongH7130 the godsH430.

2How long will ye judgeH8199 unjustlyH5766, and acceptH5375 the personsH6440 of the wickedH7563? SelahH5542.

3DefendH8199 the poorH1800 and fatherlessH3490: do justiceH6663 to the afflictedH6041 and needyH7326.1

4DeliverH6403 the poorH1800 and needyH34: ridH5337 them out of the handH3027 of the wickedH7563.

5They knowH3045 not, neither will they understandH995; they walkH1980 on in darknessH2825: all the foundationsH4144 of the earthH776 are out of courseH4131.2

6I have saidH559, Ye are godsH430; and all of you are childrenH1121 of the most HighH5945.

7ButH403 ye shall dieH4191 like menH120, and fallH5307 like oneH259 of the princesH8269.

8AriseH6965, O GodH430, judgeH8199 the earthH776: for thou shalt inheritH5157 all nationsH1471.
