PSALM 82
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Psalm of Asaph.
1In gods' assembly God doth stand;
he judgeth gods among.
2How long, accepting persons vile,
will ye give judgment wrong?
3Defend the poor and fatherless;
to poor oppress'd do right.
4The poor and needy ones set free;
rid them from ill men's might.
5They know not, nor will understand;
in darkness they walk on:
All the foundations of the earth
out of their course are gone.
6I said that ye are gods, and are
sons of the Highest all:
7But ye shall die like men, and as
one of the princes fall.
8O God, do thou raise up thyself,
the earth to judgment call:
For thou, as thine inheritance,
shalt take the nations all.

Tehillim (Psalms) 82
82
1Elohim stands in the congregation of Ěl; He judges in the midst of the elohim.
2How long would you judge perversely, And show partiality to the wrong? Selah.
3Give right-ruling to the poor and fatherless, Do right to the afflicted and needy.
4Rescue the poor and needy; Deliver them from the hand of the wrong.
5They do not know, nor do they understand, They walk about in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6I, I said, “You are elohim, And all of you are sons of the Most High.
7But as men you die, And fall as one of the heads.
8Arise, O Elohim, judge the earth, For You shall possess all the nations.
