God Stands in the Great Assembly
- God stands in the great assembly,
judging all the gods within:
“How long will you judge unjustly,
favoring the wicked men? - “Vindicate the weak and orphans,
guard the rights of those oppressed.
Save the weak, support the needy;
from the wicked give them rest.” - They are void of understanding;
no right judgment can they make.
They walk on in utter darkness;
all of earth’s foundations shake. - “You are gods,” so I addressed them;
“You are sons of God Most High.
You will fall like other princes,
you as common men will die.” - Rise, O God, and come in judgment;
justice for the earth command,
for you hold as your possession
ev’ry race and ev’ry land.
