God presides in the divine assembly

1
A Psalme committed to Aspah. God standeth in the assemblie of gods: hee iudgeth among gods.
2
How long wil ye iudge vniustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.
3
Doe right to the poore and fatherlesse: doe iustice to the poore and needie.
4
Deliuer the poore and needie: saue them from the hand of the wicked.
5
They knowe not and vnderstand nothing: they walke in darkenes, albeit all the foundations of the earth be mooued.
6
I haue said, Ye are gods, and ye all are children of the most High.
7
But ye shall die as a man, and yee princes, shall fall like others.
8
O God, arise, therefore iudge thou the earth: for thou shalt inherite all nations.
