God standeth in the congre- | -gation• of princes;

* he is a | Judge among gods.

2 How long will ye | give wrong judgment,

* and accept the persons | of the ungodly?

3 Defend the | poor and fatherless;

* see that such as are in need and ne- | -cessity have right.

4 Deliver the | outcast• and poor;

* save them from the | hand of the ungodly.

5 They know not, neither do they understand, but walk on | still in darkness:

* all the foundations of the | earth are out of course.

6 I have said, | Ye are gods,

* and ye are all the children | of the Most Highest.

7 But ye shall | die like men,

* and | fall like •one of• the princes.

8 Arise, O God, and judge | thou the earth;

* for thou shalt take all nations to | thine inheritance.

Glory be to the Father, and | to the Son,

* and | to the Holy Ghost,

As it was in the beginning, is now, and | ever shall be,

* world without | end.  Amen.
