1 (81-1) ^ Psalm Asaph. ^^ God has become in the assembly of the gods; Among the gods said the court:
2 (81-2) How long will ye judge unrighteously, and show partiality unto the wicked?
3 (81-3) Give judgment to the poor and the orphan; The oppressed and the poor, render justice;
4 (81-4) Deliver the poor and needy; Tear him out of the hand of the wicked.
5 (81-5) They do not know, they do not understand, they walk in darkness; All the bases of the earth are vacillating.

6th (81-6) I said, You are gods, and the sons of the Most High are all you;
7th (81-7) But you will die like men, and you will fall like one of the princes.
8 (81-8) Arise, O God, judge the earth, for thou shalt inherit all nations.
