82 Plea for Justice

1 [A Psalme of Asaph.] God standeth in the Congregation of the mightie: hee iudgeth among the gods.

2 How long will yee iudge vniustly: and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.

3 Defend the poore and fatherlesse: doe iustice to the afflicted and needie.

4 Deliuer the poore and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.

5 They know not, neither wil they vnderstand; they walke on in darknes: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.

6 I haue said, Ye are gods: and all of you are children of the most High:

7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the Princes.

8 Arise, O God, iudge the earth: for thou shalt inherite all nations.

All scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16).
