1 ¶ A Psalm of Asaph1. God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.
|
|
2 How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.
|
|
3 Defend2 the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.
|
|
4 Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.
|
|
5 They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out3 of course.
|
|
6 ¶ I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.
|
|
7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.
|
|
8 Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.
