6. Let Him then be standing for you, that you may not be afraid of Him sitting; for when sitting He judges, as Daniel says: “The thrones were placed, and the books were opened, and the Ancient of days did sit.” Dan. vii. 9. But in the eighty-first [second] Psalm it is written: “God stood in the congregation of gods, and decideth among the gods.” Ps. lxxxii. [lxxxi.] 1. So then when He sits He judges, when He stands He decides, and He judges concerning the imperfect, but decides among the gods. Let Him stand for you as a defender, as a good shepherd, lest the fierce wolves assault you.
