Psalms 82

World English Bible · 8 verses · 9 questions below

Open saved chapters

A Psalm by Asaph. God presides in the great assembly. He judges among the gods.

“How long will you judge unjustly, and show partiality to the wicked?” .

“Defend the weak, the poor, and the fatherless. Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.

Rescue the weak and needy. Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.”

They don’t know, neither do they understand. They walk back and forth in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

I said, “You are gods, all of you are sons of the Most High.

Nevertheless you shall die like men, and fall like one of the rulers.”

Arise, God, judge the earth, for you inherit all of the nations.

About this reading layout

Reading paragraphs add editorial spacing between unchanged verses. They do not reconstruct the original manuscript’s paragraphs. Verse numbers, supplied line breaks and citation links are retained. Books such as Psalms and Proverbs keep verses on separate lines; original-language and comparison views stay aligned by verse. Choose One verse per line in Reading settings whenever you prefer.
