Words urging judges

«A Psalm. Of Asaph.» God is in the meeting-place of God; he is judging among the gods. A Psalm by Asaph. God presides in the great assembly. He judges among the gods.
How long will you go on judging falsely, having respect for the persons of evil-doers? (Selah.) “How long will you judge unjustly, and show partiality to the wicked?” Selah.
Give ear to the cause of the poor and the children without fathers; let those who are troubled and in need have their rights. “Defend the weak, the poor, and the fatherless. Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.
Be the saviour of the poor and those who have nothing: take them out of the hand of the evil-doers. Rescue the weak and needy. Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.”
They have no knowledge or sense; they go about in the dark: all the bases of the earth are moved. They don’t know, neither do they understand. They walk back and forth in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

The doom of evil rulers

I said, You are gods; all of you are the sons of the Most High: I said, “You are gods, all of you are sons of the Most High.
But you will come to death like men, falling like one of the rulers of the earth. Nevertheless you shall die like men, and fall like one of the rulers.”
Up! O God, come as judge of the earth; for all the nations are your heritage. Arise, God, judge the earth, for you inherit all of the nations.
