The whole point of Psalm 82 is that earthly judges must act with impartiality and true justice, because even judges must stand someday before the Judge. Verses 6 and 7 warn human magistrates that they, too, must be judged: “I said, `You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High.' But you will die like mere men; you will fall like every other ruler.”
Hatua nzima ya Zaburi 82 ni kwamba majaji wa kidunia lazima watenda kwa uadilifu na haki ya kweli, kwa sababu hata majaji lazima watasimama siku moja mbele ya Jaji. Mstari wa 6 na 7 huonya mahakimu binadamu kwamba wao pia, lazima watahukumiwa: "Mimi nilisema,` Wewe ni miungu; ninyi nyote mmekuwa wana wa Mungu Mkuu. 'Lakini mtakufa kama wanadamu wa kawaida; utakuwa kuanguka kama kila mtawala mwingine."
