God Stands in Judgment
A Psalm of Asaph.
God takes His stand in the congregation of God;
He judges in the midst of gods.
2 How long will you judge unrighteously
And show partiality to the wicked? Selah.
3 Give justice to the poor and the orphan;
Justify the afflicted and destitute.
4 Protect the poor and needy;
Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.
5 They do not know and do not understand;
They walk about in darkness;
All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 I said, “You are gods,
And all of you are sons of the Most High.
7 Nevertheless you will die like men
And you will fall like any one of the princes.”
8 Arise, O God, judge the earth!
For it is You who will inherit all the nations.
