1 “A psalm of Asaph.” God standeth in God's assembly, He judgeth in the midst of the gods. 2 “How long will ye judge unjustly, And favor the cause of the wicked? [[Pause.]] 3 Defend the poor and the fatherless; Do justice to the wretched and the needy! 4 Deliver the poor and the destitute; Save them from the hand of the wicked! 5 They are without knowledge and without understanding; They walk in darkness: Therefore all the foundations of the land are shaken. 6 I have said, Ye are gods, And all of you children of the Most High; 7 But ye shall die like men, And fall like the rest of the princes.” 8 Arise, O God! judge the earth! For all the nations are thy possession.
