821 God takes His stand in His own congregation ; He judges in the midst of the rulers . 2 How long e will you judge unjustly And show partiality e to the wicked ? Selah . 3 Vindicate the weak and fatherless ; Do justice to the afflicted and destitute . 4 Rescue the weak and needy ; Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked . 5 They do not know nor do they understand ; They walk about in darkness ; All the foundations of the earth are shaken .
6 I said , "You are gods , And all of you are sons of the Most High . 7 "Nevertheless you will die like men And fall like any one of the princes ." 8 Arise , O God , judge the earth ! For it is You who possesses all the nations .
831 O God , do not remain quiet ; Do not be silent and, O God , do not be still . 2 For behold , Your enemies make an uproar , And those who hate You have exalted themselves . 3 They make shrewd plans against Your people , And conspire together against Your treasured ones. 4 They have said , "Come , and let us wipe them out as a nation , That the name of Israel be remembered no more ." 5 For they have conspired together with one mind ; Against You they make a covenant : 6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites , Moab and the Hagrites ; 7 Gebal and Ammon and Amalek , Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre ; 8 Assyria also has joined with them; They have become a help to the children of Lot . Selah .
9 Deal with them as with Midian , As with Sisera and Jabin at the torrent of Kishon , 10 Who were destroyed at En-dor , Who became as dung for the ground . 11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb And all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna , 12 Who said , " Let us possess for ourselves The pastures of God ." 13 O my God , make them like the whirling dust , Like chaff before the wind . 14 Like fire that burns the forest And like a flame that sets the mountains on fire , 15 So pursue them with Your tempest And terrify them with Your storm . 16 Fill their faces with dishonor , That they may seek Your name , O Lord . 17 Let them be ashamed and dismayed forever , And let them be humiliated and perish , 18 That they may know that You alone , whose name is the Lord , Are the Most High over all the earth .
