God presides in the divine assembly

1
A PSALM OF ASAPH. God has stood in the congregation of God, || He judges among the gods.
2
Until when do you judge perversely? And lift up the face of the wicked? Selah.
3
Judge the weak and fatherless, || Declare the afflicted and the poor righteous.
4
Let the weak and needy escape, || Deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
5
They did not know, nor do they understand, || They habitually walk in darkness, || All the foundations of earth are moved.
6
I have said, “You [are] gods, || And sons of the Most Highall of you,
7
But you die as man, and you fall as one of the heads.”
8
Rise, O God, judge the earth, || For You have inheritance among all the nations!

God presides in the divine assembly

1
God presides in the great assembly. He judges among the gods.
2
How long will you judge unjustly, and show partiality to the wicked?” Selah.
3
Defend the weak, the poor, and the fatherless. Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
4
Rescue the weak and needy. Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.”
5
They don’t know, neither do they understand. They walk back and forth 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 shall die like men, and fall like one of the rulers.”
8
Arise, God, judge the earth, for you inherit all of the nations.
