This comes from the footnotes of the New American Bible.
15 [34] This is a reference to the judges of Israel who,since they exercised the divine prerogative to judge (Deut 1:17), were called “gods”; cf Exodus 21:6, besides Psalm 82:6 from which the quotation comes.

Does this answer your questions? If not could you please be more specific. Tell me what you think these verses might mean.

Are these your questions, or are you debating with someone? A Jehovah’s Whitness perhaps?

I think I recognize the verses from a some discussions I had.
