Psalms 82

Elohim stands in the divine assembly (*qahal el*), judging the 'gods' (*elohim*) for their unjust rulings and partiality to the wicked, commanding them to defend the weak, fatherless, afflicted, and needy.[1][2][3] He declares they lack understanding, causing the earth's foundations to shake, and though called 'gods' and sons of Elyon, they will die like mortals; the psalmist calls on Elohim to arise and judge the earth, inheriting all nations.[1][4][5]
