Psalms 24

Amplified Bible, 2015 (AMP)

Switch Version:

¹ The rulers do not know nor do they understand; They walk on in the darkness [of complacent satisfaction]; All the foundations of the earth [the fundamental principles of the administration of justice] are shaken.

² I said, "You are[1] gods; Indeed, all of you are sons of the Most High.

³ "Nevertheless you will die like men And fall like any one of the princes."

⁴ Arise, O God, judge the earth! For to You belong all the nations.

⁵ A Song. A Psalm of Asaph. Do not keep silent, O God; Do not hold Your peace or be still, O God.

⁶ For behold, Your enemies are in tumult, And those who hate You have raised their heads [in hatred of You].

⁷ They concoct crafty schemes against Your people, And conspire together against Your hidden and precious ones.

⁸ They have said, "Come, and let us wipe them out as a nation; Let the name of Israel be remembered no more."

⁹ For they have conspired together with one mind; Against You they make a covenant—

¹⁰ The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Of Moab and the Hagrites,
