New Century Version
Psalms 82
A Cry for Justice
A psalm of Asaph.
1 God is in charge of the great meeting;
he judges among the "gods."
2 He says, "How long will you defend evil people?
How long will you show greater kindness to the wicked? Selah
3 Defend the weak and the orphans;
defend the rights of the poor and suffering.
4 Save the weak and helpless;
free them from the power of the wicked.
5 "You know nothing. You don't understand.
You walk in the dark,
while the world is falling apart.
6 I said, ‘You are "gods."
You are all sons of God Most High.'
7 But you will die like any other person;
you will fall like all the leaders."
8 God, come and judge the earth,
because you own all the nations.
