GOD presides in the great assembly;
He gives judgment among the "gods":
"How long will you defend the unjust
and show partiality to the wicked?
Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless;
maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
Rescue the weak and needy;
deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
"They 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 men;
you will fall like every other ruler."
Rise up, O GOD, judge the earth,
for all the nations are your inheritance.
The Book of Psalms: Psalm 82
