Psalm 82:1-Psalm 83:1 - A Plea For Righteous Judgment

1 Chanting to Asaph. God stood in the assembly of God; he will judge in the midst of gods. 2 How long will ye judge wickedness, and ye will lift up the faces of the unjust? Silence. 3 Judge ye the poor one, and the orphan: do justice to the humble one and the poor one 4 Deliver the poor and needy one: take away out of the hand of the unjust

5 They will not know, they will not Understand: they will go about in darkness: all the foundations of the earth will be moved.

6 I said, Ye are gods; and the sons of the Most High all of you. 7 But as man shall ye die, and as one of the chiefs shall ye fall. 8 Arise, O God, judge the earth: for then shalt inherit in all nations.

1 A song of chanting to Asaph. O God, not stillness to thee: thou wilt not be silent, and thou wilt not rest, O God.
