1God presides in the divine assembly; He renders judgment among the gods:
1A canticle of a psalm for Asaph.
2“How long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked? Selah
2O God, who shall be like to thee? hold not thy peace, neither be thou still, O God.
3Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; uphold the rights of the afflicted and oppressed.
3For lo, thy enemies have made a noise: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
4Rescue the weak and needy; save them from the hand of the wicked.
4They have taken a malicious counsel against thy people, and have consulted against thy saints.
5They do not know or understand; they wander in the darkness; all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
5They have said: Come and let us destroy them, so that they be not a nation: and let the name of Israel be remembered no more.
6I have said, ‘You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High.’
6For they have contrived with one consent: they have made a covenant together against thee,
7But like mortals you will die, and like rulers you will fall.”
7The tabernacles of the Edomites, and the Ismahelites: Moab, and the Agarens,
8Arise, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are Your inheritance.
8Gebal, and Ammon and Amalec: the Philistines, with the inhabitants of Tyre.
