1 – A psalm for Asaph. God hath stood in the congregation of gods: and being in the midst of them he judgeth gods.

Covenant Eyes ad

2 – How long will you judge unjustly: and accept the persons of the wicked?

3 – Judge for the needy and fatherless: do justice to the humble and the poor.

4 – Rescue the poor; and deliver the needy out of the hand of the sinner.

5 – They have not known nor understood: they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be moved.

6 – I have said: You are gods and all of you the sons of the most High.

7 – But you like men shall die: and shall fall like one of the princes.

8 – Arise, O God, judge thou the earth: for thou shalt inherit among all the nations.
