God presides in the divine assembly

1
God presides in the divine assembly; He renders judgment among the gods:
2
How long will you judge unjustly (a) and show partiality to the wicked?
3
Selah Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; uphold the rights of the afflicted and oppressed.
4
Rescue the weak and needy; save them from the hand of the wicked.
5
They do not know or understand; they wander in the darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
6
I have said, ‘You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High.’(b)
7
But like mortals you will die, and like rulers you will fall.”
8
Arise, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are Your inheritance.
