A psalm of Asaph.

¹ God presides in the great assembly;
he gives judgment among the "gods":

² "How long will you defend the unjust
and show partiality to the wicked?
Selah

³ Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless;
maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.

⁴ Rescue the weak and needy;
deliver them from the hand of the wicked.

⁵ "They know nothing, they understand nothing.
They walk about in darkness;
all the foundations of the earth are shaken.

⁶ "I said, 'You are "gods";
you are all sons of the Most High.'

⁷ But you will die like mere men;
you will fall like every other ruler."

⁸ Rise up, O God, judge the earth,
for all the nations are your inheritance.
