Psalms 81

¹A Psalm of Asaph. God has stood in the synagogue of gods, but, in their midst, he decides between gods

²How long will you judge unjustly and favor the faces of sinners

³Judge for the indigent and the orphan. Do justice to the humble and the poor

⁴Rescue the poor, and free the needy from the hand of the sinner

⁵They did not know and did not understand. They wander in darkness. All the foundations of the earth will be moved

⁶I said: You are gods, and all of you are sons of the Most High

⁷But you will die like men, and you will fall just like one of the princes

⁸Rise up, O God. Judge the earth. For you will inherit it with all the nations
