[1]GOD stands in the congregation of angels; he judges among the angels.[2]How long will you judge unjustly, and be partial to the wicked?[3]Defend the poor and fatherless; do justice to the afflicted and needy.[4]Deliver the poor and needy out of the hand of the wicked.[5]They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.[6]I have said, You are gods; all of you are children of the most High.[7]Henceforth you shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.[8]Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.
