Psalm 82, NEW KING JAMES VERSION
Prior Chapter  |  Next Chapter

1

God stands in the congregation of the mighty;
He judges among the gods.
 

2

How long will you judge unjustly,
And show partiality to the wicked?  Selah  
 

3

Defend the poor and fatherless;
Do justice to the afflicted and needy.
 

4

Deliver the poor and needy;
Free them from the hand of the wicked.
 

5

They do not know, nor do they understand;
They walk about in darkness;
All the foundations of the earth are unstable.
 

6

I said, “You are gods,
And all of you are children of the Most High.
 

7

But you shall die like men,
And fall like one of the princes.”
 

8

Arise, O God, judge the earth;
For You shall inherit all nations.
