He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock
should I have satisfied thee.
CHAPTER 82
God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.
2
How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.
3
Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.
4
Deliver the poor and needy: rid
them
out of the hand of the wicked.
5
They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations
of the earth are out of course.

I have said, Ye
are
gods; and all of you
are
children of the most High.

Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.
CHAPTER 83
Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.

4
They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from
being
a nation; that the name of Israel
may be no more in remembrance.
5
For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
6
The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7
Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8
Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.
9
Do unto them as
unto
the Midianites; as
to
Sisera, as
to
Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
10
Which
perished at Endor: they became
as
dung for the earth.
11
Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as
Zalmunna:
12
Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
13
O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
14
As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
15
So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
16
Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O L
ORD
.
17
Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
