Psalm 82. Deus stetit.

From the Book of Divine Worship - The Psalter or Psalms of David - Traditional - Sixteenth Day - Evening Prayer.
  1. GOD standeth in the congregation of princes; *
    he is a Judge among gods.
  2. How long will ye give wrong judgment, *
    and accept the persons of the ungodly?
  3. Defend the poor and fatherless; *
    see that such as are in need and necessity have right.
  4. Deliver the outcast and poor; *
    save them from the hand of the ungodly.
  5. They know not, neither do they understand, but walk on still in darkness: *
    all the foundations of the earth are out of course.
  6. I have said, Ye are gods, *
    and ye are all the children of the Most Highest.
  7. But ye shall die like men, *
    and fall like one of the princes.
  8. Arise, O God, and judge thou the earth; *
    for thou shalt take all nations to thine inheritance.
