Verse 7 is found in chapter 82 of Psalms. Psalm 82 presents God judging those who exercise authority and accuses these rulers of defending the powerful unjustly. Their central obligation is to protect the weak, the orphan, and the needy. The expression calling the rulers gods within the scene does not diminish the Lord’s sovereignty, but emphasizes it: those exercising delegated authority will ultimately be judged by the Most High God.

aber ihr werdet sterben wie Menschen und wie ein Tyrann zugrunde gehen.
Empero como hombres moriréis. Y caeréis como cualquiera de los tiranos.
Sin embargo, morirán como los hombres y caerán como cualquiera de los gobernantes».
Cependant vous mourrez comme des hommes, Vous tomberez comme un prince quelconque.
Tuttavolta voi morrete come un altro uomo, E caderete come qualunque altro de’ principi.
Todavia morrereis como homens, e caireis como qualquer dos príncipes.
然而,你們要死去,與世人一樣, 要仆倒,像任何一位王子一般。」
