International Standard Version

1A Psalm of Asaph. God presides in the divine assembly; He renders judgment among the gods:

1 God takes his stand in the divine assembly; among the divine beings he renders judgment:

2“How long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked? Selah

2"How long will you judge partially by showing favor on the wicked? Interlude

3Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; uphold the rights of the afflicted and oppressed.

3"Defend the poor and the fatherless. Vindicate the afflicted and the poor.

4Rescue the weak and needy; save them from the hand of the wicked.

4Rescue the poor and the needy, delivering them from the power of the wicked.

5They do not know or understand; they wander in the darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.

5They neither know nor understand; they walk about in the dark while all the foundations of the earth are shaken.

6I have said, ‘You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High.’

6"Indeed I said, 'You are gods, and all of you are sons of the Most High.

7But like mortals you will die, and like rulers you will fall.”

7However, as all human beings do, you will die, and like other rulers, you will fall.'

8Arise, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are Your inheritance.

8Arise, God, to judge the earth, for all nations belong to you.
