Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” Luke 23:34 (NIV) He was fulfilling (maybe even quoting) Psalm 82: Psalm 82 -- A Plea for Justice (YLT)82 A Psalm of Asaph. God hath stood in the company of God, In the midst God doth judge. Till when do ye judge perversely? And the face of the wicked lift up? Selah. Judge ye the weak and fatherless, The afflicted and the poor declare righteous. Let the weak and needy escape, From the hand of the wicked deliver them. They knew not, nor do they understand, In darkness they walk habitually, Moved are all the foundations of earth. I -- I have said, `Gods ye [are], And sons of the Most High -- all of you, But as man ye die, and as one of the heads ye fall, Rise, O God, judge the earth, For Thou hast inheritance among all the nations! ![]()
