Psalms 82:1-8

God presides in the great assembly; he renders judgment among the ‘gods’: ‘How long will you defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked? Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked. ‘The “gods” know nothing, they understand nothing. They walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken. ‘I said, “You are ‘gods’; you are all sons of the Most High.” But you will die like mere mortals; you will fall like every other ruler.’ Rise up, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are your inheritance.
