Psalm 82

GOd stands, where he doth see
The Lords to Counsell goe;
And, when the Gods in Iudgment be,
He judgeth what they do.

Yee Nobles, wherfor, then,
Are yee vnjust so long?
Why favour yee, vngodlie men
To do the righteous wrong? Selah.

The pore, young Orphanes greev'd,
The needie & opprest,
Should by your Iustice be releev'd,
And from proud hands releast.

But, yee are men vnwise,
And walk without the light:
Ev'n you, on whome the land relies,
Are out of order, quite.

You, therefore, whome I call
The sonns of God most high,
(And termed Gods) like men, shall fall;
And, like such Princes dye.

Thy self, oh God! advance
And, give the world her doome;
For, thine by due Inheritance,
All nations are become.
