Psalms 82

82
A Plea for Righteous Judgment
A psalm of Asaph. # 1Ch 16:5,7
1God has taken His place in the divine assembly;
He judges among the gods: # Or the heavenly beings, or the earthly rulers ; lit elohim # Jb 21:22; Ps 7:8; 58:11
2“How long will you judge unjustly
and show partiality to the wicked? # Dt 1:17; Pr 18:5; Mal 2:9Selah
3Provide justice for the needy and the fatherless;
uphold the rights of the oppressed and the destitute. # Dt 24:17; Is 11:4; Jr 22:16
4Rescue the poor and needy;
save them from the power of the wicked.” # Jb 29:12; Pr 24:11
5They do not know or understand;
they wander in darkness. # Pr 2:13; Is 44:18
All the foundations of the earth are shaken. # Ps 11:3
6I said, “You are gods; # Jn 10:34
you are all sons of the Most High. # Ps 82:1; Lk 6:35
7However, you will die like men
and fall like any other ruler.” # Ps 49:12
8Rise up, God, judge the earth,
for all the nations belong to You. # Ps 58:11; 96:13
