Psalm 82

.
v1 God is the leader of a meeting (The meeting of nations) of the powerful ones (Wicked powerful leaders). He (God) is telling the (false) gods what he has decided.

v2 (God says) "How long will you not be fair to people? (How long) will you (false gods) say that the godless are right?"

v3 (God continues) Be fair and give help to:
(a) people that are weak
(b) children with dead parents
(c) people that are poor
(d) anyone who has nothing.

v4 Make the poor people safe and give them the help that they need. Take them away from the power of the godless (people like Hitler).

v5 They (the godless) know nothing and they understand nothing (That's you jobee). They walk about in darkness. The ground beneath them moves about (People like Hitler are so full of themselves they even think the earth moves under their feet when they walk).

v6 I (God) say, "You are gods (Hitler worshipped the false gods of the occult) and you are all sons of the Most High (false gods are subject to Almighty God like a son is subject to his father).

v7 But you will die like Adam. You will fall like rulers" (Like Hitler did).

v8 (The psalmist pleads with God to: -)
"God, stand up and rule the earth because all the countries in it belong to you."

One day, the one true God will rule all the earth.
