Psalms 82:1-7

Psalms 82:1-7 AMP

God stands in the divine assembly; He judges among the gods (divine beings). How long will you judge unjustly And show partiality to the wicked? Selah. Vindicate the weak and fatherless; Do justice and maintain the rights of the afflicted and destitute. Rescue the weak and needy; Rescue them from the hand of the wicked. ¶The rulers do not know nor do they understand; They walk on in the darkness [of complacent satisfaction]; All the foundations of the earth [the fundamental principles of the administration of justice] are shaken. I said, “You are gods; Indeed, all of you are sons of the Most High. [Gen 6:1-4; John 10:34-36; Rom 13:1, 2] “Nevertheless you will die like men And fall like any one of the princes.”
