1 God stands in the assembly of God;
among the gods he gives judgment:
2 “How long will you judge unjustly and show favor to the wicked? Selah.
3 Defend the weak and the fatherless;
uphold the cause of the afflicted and poor.
4 Rescue the weak and needy;
deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
5 They neither know nor understand;
they walk about in darkness.
All the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 I said, ‘You are gods, all of you sons of the Most High.’
7 Yet you will die like mortals and fall like any ruler.”
8 Rise up, God, judge the earth, for all the nations are yours to inherit.
