| Chapter 82
|
1 | God standeth in
the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods. |
2 | How long will ye judge unjustly,
and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah. |
3 | Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the
afflicted and needy. |
4 |
Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.
|
5 | They know not,
neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of
the earth are out of course. |
6 | I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the
most High. |
7 | But
ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes. |
8 | Arise, O God, judge the earth: for
thou shalt inherit all nations. |
