Psalms 50

[ ]

& The Mighty One, God, the LORD, has spoken, And summoned the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting.

& Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God has shone forth.

& May our God come and not keep silence; Fire devours before Him, And it is very tempestuous around Him.

& He summons the heavens above, And the earth, to judge His people:

& "Gather My godly ones to Me, Those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice."

& And the heavens declare His righteousness, For God Himself is judge. Selah.

& "Hear, O My people, and I will speak; O Israel, I will testify against you; I am God, your God.

& "I do not reprove you for your sacrifices, And your burnt offerings are continually before Me.

& "I shall take no young bull out of your house Nor male goats out of your folds.

& "For every beast of the forest is Mine, The cattle on a thousand hills.

& "I know every bird of the mountains, And everything that moves in the field is (Or {in My mind;} lit {with Me}) Mine.

& "If I were hungry I would not tell you, For the world is Mine, and all it contains.

& "Shall I eat the flesh of bulls Or drink the blood of male goats?

& "Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving And pay your vows to the Most High;

& Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I shall rescue you, and you will honor Me."

& But to the wicked God says, "What right have you to tell of My statutes And to take My covenant in your mouth?

& "For you hate discipline, And you cast My words behind you.

& "When you see a thief, you are pleased with him, And you associate with adulterers.

& "You let your mouth loose in evil And your tongue frames deceit.

& "You sit and speak against your brother; You slander your own mother's son.

& "These things you have done and I kept silence; You thought that I was just like you; I will reprove you and state {the case} in order before your eyes.

& "Now consider this, you who forget God, Or I will tear {you} in pieces, and there will be none to deliver.

& "He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors Me; And to him who orders {his} way {aright} I shall show the salvation of God."
