Psalm 81
|
1
A psalm for Asaph.
God hath stood in the congregation of gods: and being in the midst of them he judgeth gods.
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.
