Psalms 82

1 The psalmist, having exhorted the judges, 5 and reproved their negligence, 8 prayeth God to judge.

 82:1 ¶ [[A Melody of Asaph.]] God, hath taken his place in the august assembly, In the midst of the gods, will he judge.

 82:2 How long will ye judge perversely, And, the countenances of the lawless, uplift? [Selah.]

 82:3 Vindicate the weak and the fatherless, The oppressed and the poor, see righted;

 82:4 Deliver the weak and the needy, Out of the hand of the lawless, make rescue.

 82:5 They know not, neither can they perceive, In darkness, they wander, All the foundations of the earth do shake.

 82:6 ¶ I, said, Gods, ye are, Yea, sons of the Highest, are ye all;

 82:7 But indeed, like the earth-born, shall ye die! And, like one of the princes, shall ye fall!

 82:8 Arise! O God, judge thou the earth, For, thou, wilt inherit all the nations.
