Rise And Judge, Eternal One!

A Psalm Of The Feast Of Unleavened Bread - Rise And Judge, Eternal One!


Rise And Judge, Eternal One!

"In the midst of magistrates, God His judgment gives.

This He asks, how long will you Thus unjustly judge,

To respect the wicked's cause, And the righteous blame?

Judge the poor and fatherless; Judge them righteously."

"Earth's foundations have been moved; All in darkness walk.

Judges of the earth know not Nor will understand;

God has said they are like gods, Sons of God Most High;

But they all shall die like men; And as princes fall."

"Keep not silence, O my God; Your foes plot their schemes;

That the name of Israel May be blotted out;

Put them all to shame, O God, As they would Your sons;

Rise and judge, Eternal One, For the earth is Yours!"

"Let men know that You, O Lord, The Eternal One,

Are Most High o'er all the earth; Let men know Your Name!

They know not nor understand; They shall die like men;

Rise and judge, Eternal One, For the earth is Yours!"



Psalm 82

God stands in the congregation of the mighty;

He judges among the gods.

How long will you judge unjustly,

And show partiality to the wicked? Selah

Defend the poor and fatherless;

Do justice to the afflicted and needy.

Deliver the poor and needy;

Free them from the hand of the wicked.

They do not know, nor do they understand;

They walk about in darkness;

All the foundations of the earth are unstable.

I said, “You are gods,

And all of you are children of the Most High.

7 But you shall die like men,

And fall like one of the princes.”

Arise, O God, judge the earth;

For You shall inherit all nations

Psalm 83:1,18

Do not keep silent, O God!
Do not hold Your peace,
And do not be still, O God!

That they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord,
Are the Most High over all the earth.
