Psalm 82
Deus stetit
1
God standeth in the congregation of princes *
he is a Judge among gods.
2
How long will ye give wrong judgement *
and accept the persons of the ungodly?
3
Defend the poor and fatherless *
see that such as are in need and necessity have right.
4
Deliver the outcast and poor *
save them from the hand of the ungodly.
5
They will not be learned nor understand, but walk on still in darkness *
all the foundations of the earth are out of course.
6
I have said, Ye are gods *
and ye are all the children of the most Highest.
7
But ye shall die like men *
and fall like one of the princes.
8
Arise, O God, and judge thou the earth *
for thou shalt take all heathen to thine inheritance.
