powerful gods

a suggestion, but more context would help!
Note from asker:
It's taken from Somtow's Darker Angels, and the sentence is: Oh, dieux puissants, why you axing me to make biggest magic... But I think what you are suggesting sounds perfect for this context.

Almighty Gods/Ye Gods

Ye (pron Yee) is an expression I know, otherwise we would use Almighty.
Peer comment(s):

agree Bianca Jacobsohn : Almighty! Depends what effect you're looking for, but for a dramatic one I'd got for this one
