JPS Tanakh 1917
God standeth in the congregation of God;
In the midst of the judges He judgeth:
2‘How long will ye judge unjustly,
And respect the persons of the wicked?
Selah
3Judge the poor and fatherless;
Do justice to the afflicted and destitute.
4Rescue the poor and needy;
Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.
5They know not, neither do they understand;
They go about in darkness;
All the foundations of the earth are moved.
6I said: Ye are godlike beings,
And all of you sons of the Most High.
7Nevertheless ye shall die like men,
And fall like one of the princes.’
8Arise, O God, judge the earth;
For Thou shalt possess all the nations.
