Doesn't the Bible say ye are gods?

Psalm 82 says it to corrupt judges who will die like men. Jesus quotes it to defend his own claim to be the Son of God, not to promise godhood to us.

In Psalm 82 God stands in judgment over rulers who judged unjustly. They held God-given authority, so they are called gods, and yet they will die like any man. In John 10 Jesus argues from the lesser to the greater: if Scripture could call such men gods, how can he be accused of blasphemy for saying he is the Son of God?

6I said, “You are gods, all of you are sons of the Most High. 7Nevertheless you shall die like men, and fall like one of the rulers.”
