Psalm 82

A Psalm ||of Asaph.

1  aGod bstandeth in the congregation of the mighty;

cHe judgeth among the dgods.

2  eHow long will ye judge unjustly,

And fgaccept the persons gof the wicked? Selah.

3  †Defend the hpoor and ifatherless:

iDo justice to the afflicted and needy.

4  kDeliver the hpoor and needy:

lRid them out of the hand of the wicked.

5  mThey know not, neither will they understand;

nThey walk on in darkness:

oAll the foundations of the earth are †out of course.

6  pI have said, Ye are qgods;

And all of you are rchildren of the most High.

7  But sye shall die tlike men,

And fall like one of the princes.

8  uArise, O God, judge the earth:

xFor thou shalt inherit all nations.
