God Presides in the Divine Assembly

1A psalme of Asaph. God standeth in the congregation of God: he iudgeth in the midst of God.

2Howe long wyll ye geue wrong iudgement: and accept the persons of the vngodly? Selah.

3Iudge ryght vnto the poore and fatherlesse: dispatch according to iustice suche as be afflicted and in necessitie.

4Deliuer the poore and outcast: saue them from the hande of the vngodly.

5They knowe nothyng, they vnderstande nothing: they walke on styll in darknesse, wherfore all the foundations of the earth be out of course.

6I haue sayde ye are gods: and ye all are chyldren of the most highest.

7But ye shall dye lyke as a man doth: and princes them selues shall fall away lyke as other do.

8Arise O God, and iudge thou the earth: for thou shalt take all Heathen to thine inheritaunce.
