Deus stetit.
Psalm 81 in the Vulgate numbering this edition follows; Psalm 82 in the Hebrew numbering of most modern Bibles.
1A psalm for Asaph. God hath stood in the congregation of gods: and being in the midst of them he judgeth gods. 2How long will you judge unjustly: and accept the persons of the wicked? 3Judge for the needy and fatherless: do justice to the humble and the poor. 4Rescue the poor; and deliver the needy out of the hand of the sinner. 5They have not known nor understood: they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be moved. 6I have said: You are gods and all of you the sons of the most High. 7But you like men shall die: and shall fall like one of the princes. 8Arise, O God, judge thou the earth: for thou shalt inherit among all the nations.
