God presides in the great assembly; he gives judgment among the "gods": 1
"How long will you defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked? 2
Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. 3
Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked. 4
"They know nothing, they understand nothing. They walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken. 5
"I said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.' 6
But you will die like mere men; you will fall like every other ruler." 7
Rise up, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are your inheritance. 8
