Psalm 82:5-7
EasyEnglish Bible
5 The powerful leaders know nothing
and they understand nothing.
They walk about in a dark place.
At the same time the foundation of the earth shakes![a]
6 I said, “You are gods.
You are all sons of the Most High God.
7 But you will die, as all people die.
You will come to an end, like all other rulers.” ’[b]
Footnotes
- 82:5 This tells us that the leaders do not know what they are doing. They are like people who cannot see their way in the dark. Because they do not rule well, it is like the whole earth is shaking. There is no justice anywhere.
- 82:7 The rulers thought that they were very powerful and that they were serving God. But they will die, as all people and rulers have to die one day.
