82:1  God takes His stand in His own congregation; He judges in the midst of the rulers.

82:2  How long will you judge unjustly And show partiality to the wicked? Selah.

82:3  Vindicate the weak and fatherless; Do justice to the afflicted and destitute.

82:4  Rescue the weak and needy; Deliver {them} out of the hand of the wicked.

82:5  They do not know nor do they understand; They walk about in darkness; All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

82:6  I said, "You are gods, And all of you are sons of the Most High.

82:7  "Nevertheless you will die like men And fall like {any} one of the princes."

82:8  Arise, O God, judge the earth! For it is You who possesses all the nations.
