Psalm 82

Also in: CNV · ESV · NIV11 · NKJV · RCUV · CCBT

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