1God stands in the congregation of the mighty. He pronounces judgment among the god-like ones: (John 10:35) 2»How long are you going to judge unjustly? How long are you going to show partiality to the wicked? 3»Defend the weak and fatherless. Protect the rights of the oppressed and the poor. 4»Rescue the weak and needy. Help them escape the power of the wicked.« 5Wicked people do not know or understand anything. As they walk around in the dark, all the foundations of the earth shake. 6I said: »You are god-like ones. You are all sons of the Most High. (John 1:1) 7»But you will certainly die like humans and fall like any prince.« 8Arise, O God! Judge the earth, because all the nations belong to you.
