Psalms 82:7

82:7 Yet you will die like mortals;

you will fall like all the other rulers.”

Psalms 105:14

105:14 He let no one oppress them;

he disciplined kings for their sake,


tn Heb “men.” The point in the context is mortality, however, not maleness.

tn Heb “like one of the rulers.” The comparison does not necessarily imply that they are not rulers. The expression “like one of” can sometimes mean “as one of” (Gen 49:16; Obad 11) or “as any other of” (Judg 16:7, 11).
