- 1[A Psalm of Asaph.] God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.מִזְמ֗וֹר לְאָ֫סָ֥ף אֱֽלֹהִ֗ים נִצָּ֥ב בַּעֲדַת אֵ֑ל בְּקֶ֖רֶב אֱלֹהִ֣ים יִשְׁפֹּֽט
- 2How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.עַד מָתַ֥י תִּשְׁפְּטוּ עָ֑וֶל וּפְנֵ֥י רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים תִּשְׂאוּ סֶֽלָה
- 3Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.שִׁפְטוּ דַ֥ל וְיָת֑וֹם עָנִ֖י וָרָ֣שׁ הַצְדִּֽיקוּ
- 4Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.פַּלְּטוּ דַ֥ל וְאֶבְי֑וֹן מִיַּ֖ד רְשָׁעִ֣ים הַצִּֽילוּ
- 5They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.לֹ֤א יָֽדְע֨וּ וְלֹ֥א יָבִ֗ינוּ בַּחֲשֵׁכָ֥ה יִתְהַלָּ֑כוּ יִ֝מּ֗וֹטוּ כָּל מ֥וֹסְדֵי אָֽרֶץ
- 6I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.אֲֽנִי אָ֭מַרְתִּי אֱלֹהִ֣ים אַתֶּ֑ם וּבְנֵ֖י עֶלְי֣וֹן כֻּלְּכֶֽם
- 7But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.אָ֭כֵן כְּאָדָ֣ם תְּמוּת֑וּן וּכְאַחַ֖ד הַשָּׂרִ֣ים תִּפֹּֽלוּ
- 8Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.קוּמָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים שָׁפְטָ֣ה הָאָ֑רֶץ כִּֽי אַתָּ֥ה תִ֝נְחַ֗ל בְּכָל הַגּוֹיִֽם

Hebrew verse gematria
YHWSA calculates these totals directly from every consonant in the tagged Hebrew source line using the Carlo Suarès letter-number system; vowel points and cantillation marks do not add values. The totals are not reverse-mapped from English. A matching number is a comparison to investigate, not proof that two passages mean the same thing.
