Psalm 82

Psalm 82:1
God takes His stand in His own congregation;
He judges in the midst of the rulers.
Those who rule have the highest authority.  They make the decisions that affect the rest of us.  Sometimes, those decisions are good; sometimes they aren't.  Sometimes those decisions have consequences long after what they expected.  But God has given them that right, and it is our call to obey.

However, they are not immune from consequences themselves.  God has authority over them, whether they recognize it or not.  He will decide their fates, both in this life and afterwards.  If they have not put their faith in Christ, those eternal fates will be decided very simply.
