Psalms 82

God has taken his place 
in the divine 
council;
in the midst of the gods
he holds 
judgement:
"How long will you 
judge unjustly
and show partiality 
to the 
wicked?
Give justice to the 
weak and the 
fatherless;
maintain the right of the 
afflicted and the 
destitute.
Rescue the weak and the 
needy;
deliver them from the 
hand of the 
wicked."
They have neither knowledge 
or understanding,
they walk about in 
darkness;
all the foundations of earth
are shaken.
 I said, "you are gods, 
sons of the Most High, 
all of you;
nevertheless, like men 
you shall die, 
and fall like any prince."
Arise O God, 
judge the earth;
for you shall inherit 
all the nations!
