A Psalm by Asaph.
1 God presides in the great assembly.
He judges among the gods.
2 “How long will you judge unjustly,
And show partiality to the wicked?”
Selah.
3 “Defend the weak, the poor, and the fatherless.
Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
4 Rescue the weak and needy.
Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.”
5 They don’t know, neither do they understand.
They walk back and forth in darkness.
All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 I said, “You are gods,
All of you are sons of the Most High.
7 Nevertheless you shall die like men,
And fall like one of the rulers.”
8 Arise, God, judge the earth,
For you inherit all of the nations.
