Psalms 81

The Book of Psalms

82

  A Psalm of Asaph.

1

YAHUVEH standeth in the congregation of YAHUVEH; He judgeth among the deities.

2

How long will ye judge unjustly, And respect the persons of the wicked? Selah

3

Judge the poor and fatherless: Do justice to the afflicted and destitute.

4

Rescue the poor and needy: Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.

5

They know not, neither do they understand; They walk to and fro in darkness: All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

6

I said, Ye are deities, And all of you sons of the Most High.

7

Nevertheless ye shall die like men, And fall like one of the princes.

8

Arise, O YAHUVEH, judge the earth; For thou shalt inherit all the nations.
