2 How long will ye judge wickedness, and ye will lift up the faces of the unjust? Silence. “How long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked? Selah “How long will you defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked?
3 Judge ye the poor one, and the orphan: do justice to the humble one and the poor one. Give justice to the weak and the fatherless; maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute. Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.
4 Deliver the poor and needy one: take away out of the hand of the unjust. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.” Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
5 They will not know, they will not Understand: they will go about in darkness: all the foundations of the earth will be moved. They have neither knowledge nor understanding, they walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken. “The ‘gods’ know nothing, they understand nothing. They walk about in darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6 I said, Ye are gods; and the sons of the Most High all of you. I said, “You are gods, sons of the Most High, all of you; “I said, ‘You are “gods|; you are all sons of the Most High.’
7 But as man shall ye die, and as one of the chiefs shall ye fall. nevertheless, like men you shall die, and fall like any prince.” But you will die like mere mortals; you will fall like every other ruler.”
8 Arise, O God, judge the earth: for then shalt inherit in all nations. Arise, O God, judge the earth; for you shall inherit all the nations! Rise up, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are your inheritance.
