Tehillim 82
(Mizmor of Asaph)
Elohim standeth in the Adat El;
He judgeth among the elohim.1
Ad mosai (How long) will ye judge unjustly,
and show partiality to the resha'im?
Selah
Defend the poor and yatom (fatherless);
do justice to the oni (afflicted) and needy.
Deliver the poor and needy;
rid them out of the yad resha'im.
They know not, neither will they understand;
they walk on in choshech;
all the foundations of ha'aretz are shaken.
I have said, elohim ye are;
and all of you are Bnei HaElyon.
But ye shall die like adam,
and fall like one of the sarim (princes).
Arise, Elohim, judge ha'aretz;
for Thou shalt inherit kol HaGoyim.
