God presides in the great assembly; he renders judgment among the "gods":
"How long will you defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked?:2The Hebrew has Selah(a word of uncertain meaning) here.

Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.

But you will die like mere mortals; you will fall like every other ruler."
Rise up, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations are your inheritance.

我曾說:你們是神,都是至高者的兒子。
然而,你們要死,與世人一樣,要仆倒,像王子中的一位。
神啊,求你起來審判世界,因為你要得萬邦為業。
