Psalms 81

1A psalm for Asaph. God hath stood in the congregation of gods: and being in the midst of them he judgeth gods.● 2How long will you judge unjustly: and accept the persons of the wicked?● 3Judge for the needy and fatherless: do justice to the humble and the poor.● 4Rescue the poor; and deliver the needy out of the hand of the sinner.● 5They have not known nor understood: they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be moved.● 6I have said: You are gods and all of you the sons of the most High.● 7But you like men shall die: and shall fall like one of the princes.● 8Arise, O God, judge thou the earth: for thou shalt inherit among all the nations.●
