          DASV: Psalm 82    

A psalm of Asaph

1 God stands in the divine council;
     he renders justice among the heavenly beings.

2 Saying, "How long will you judge unjustly,
     and favor the wicked? Selah
3 Defend the poor and orphan;
     give justice to the oppressed and destitute.
4 Rescue the poor and needy;
     deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
5 They do not know or understand;
     they walk around in darkness;
           all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 I said, 'You are gods,
     all of you are sons of the Most High.
7 Nevertheless you will die like men,
     and fall just like other rulers.'"

8 Arise, O God, judge the earth,
     for all nations belong to you.
