Unlocked Literal Bible 2017

- Chapter 82 -

God presides in the divine assembly

1
A psalm of Asaph. God stands in the divine assembly; in the midst of the gods he renders judgment.
2
How long will you judge unjustly and show favoritism to the wicked? Selah.
3
Defend the poor and fatherless; maintain the rights of the afflicted and destitute.
4
Rescue the poor and needy; take them out of the hand of the wicked.
5
They neither know nor understand; they wander around in the darkness; all the foundations of the earth crumble.
6
I said, “You are gods, and all of you sons of the Most High.
7
Nevertheless you will die like men and fall like one of the princes.”
8
Arise, God, judge the earth, for you have an inheritance in all the nations.
