1A Psalm for Asaph. God stands in the assembly of gods;
And in the midst of them will judge gods.

2How long will ye judge unrighteously,
And accept the persons of sinners? Pause.

3Judge the orphan and poor:
Do justice to the low and needy.

4Rescue the needy, and deliver the poor
Out of the hand of the sinner.

5They know not, nor understand;
They walk on in darkness:
All the foundations of the earth shall be shaken.

6I have said, Ye are gods;
And all of you children of the Most High.

7But ye die as men,
And fall as one of the princes.

8Arise, O God, judge the earth:
For thou shalt inherit all nations.
