1. God presides in the great assembly;he renders judgment among the ‘gods’:
2. ‘How long will you defend the unjustand show partiality to the wicked?
3. Defend the weak and the fatherless;uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.
4. Rescue the weak and the needy;deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
5. ‘The “gods” know nothing, they understand nothing.They walk about in darkness;all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6. ‘I said, “You are ‘gods’;you are all sons of the Most High.”
7. But you will die like mere mortals;you will fall like every other ruler.’
8. Rise up, O God, judge the earth,for all the nations are your inheritance.
