³⁴ In answer, Jesus said, Is there not a saying in your law, I said, You are gods?

⁶ I said, You are gods; all of you are the sons of the Most High:

⁷ But you will come to death like men, falling like one of the rulers of the earth.

¹ <Of David.> I will give you praise with all my heart: I will make melody to you before the gods.

¹ <A Psalm. Of Asaph.> God is in the meeting-place of God; he is judging among the gods.

¹ And the Lord said to Moses, See I have made you a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother will be your prophet.

²⁵ This comes about so that the writing in their law may be made true, Their hate for me was without cause.

¹⁶ And he will do the talking for you to the people: he will be to you as a mouth and you will be to him as God.

³⁴ Then the people in answer said to him, The law says that the Christ will have life without end: how say you then that it is necessary for the Son of man to be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?

²⁸ You may not say evil of the judges, or put a curse on the ruler of your people.

¹⁰ As it is said in the holy Writings, There is not one who does righteousness;

¹¹ Not one who has the knowledge of what is right, not one who is a searcher after God;

¹² They have all gone out of the way, there is no profit in any of them; there is not one who does good, not so much as one:

¹³ Their throat is like an open place of death; with their tongues they have said what is not true: the poison of snakes is under their lips:

¹⁴ Whose mouth is full of curses and bitter words:

¹⁵ Their feet are quick in running after blood;

¹⁶ Destruction and trouble are in their ways;

¹⁷ And of the way of peace they have no knowledge:

¹⁸ There is no fear of God before their eyes.

¹⁹ Now, we have knowledge that what the law says is for those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and all men may be judged by God:

¹⁷ Even in your law it is said that the witness of two men is true.
