Psalms 81

  1. 1 A psalm for Asaph. God hath stood in the congregation of gods: and being in the midst of them he judgeth gods.

  2. 2 How long will you judge unjustly: and accept the persons of the wicked?

  3. 3 Judge for the needy and fatherless: do justice to the humble and the poor.

  4. 4 Rescue the poor; and deliver the needy out of the hand of the sinner.

  5. 5 They have not known nor understood: they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be moved.

  6. 6 I have said: You are gods and all of you the sons of the most High.

  7. 7 But you like men shall die: and shall fall like one of the princes.

  8. 8 Arise, O God, judge thou the earth: for thou shalt inherit among all the nations.
