PSALM 82

God has taken his place in the divine council;
    in the midst of the gods he holds judgment: 
“How long will you judge unjustly
    and show partiality to the wicked? Selah 
Give justice to the weak and the orphan;
    maintain the right of the lowly and the destitute. 
Rescue the weak and the needy;
    deliver them from the hand of the wicked.”
 They have neither knowledge nor understanding,
    they walk around in darkness;
    all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
I say, “You are gods,
    children of the Most High, all of you; 

nevertheless, you shall die like mortals,
    and fall like any prince.”
Rise up, O God, judge the earth;
    for all the nations belong to you!
