Psaumes 50
A Psalm{H4210} of Asaph{H623}. The mighty{H410} God{H430}, even the LORD{H3068}, hath spoken{H1696}{H8765)}, and called{H7121}{H8799)} the earth{H776} from the rising{H4217} of the sun{H8121} unto the going down{H3996} thereof.
Out of Zion{H6726}, the perfection{H4359} of beauty{H3308}, God{H430} hath shined{H3313}{H8689)}.
Our God{H430} shall come{H935}{H8799)}, and shall not keep silence{H2790}{H8799)}: a fire{H784} shall devour{H398}{H8799)} before{H6440} him, and it shall be very{H3966} tempestuous{H8175}{H8738)} round about{H5439} him.
He shall call{H7121}{H8799)} to the heavens{H8064} from above{H5920}, and to the earth{H776}, that he may judge{H1777}{H8800)} his people{H5971}.
Gather{H622}{H8798)} my saints{H2623} together unto me; those that have made{H3772}{H8802)} a covenant{H1285} with me by sacrifice{H2077}.
And the heavens{H8064} shall declare{H5046}{H8686)} his righteousness{H6664}: for God{H430} is judge{H8199}{H8802)} himself. Selah{H5542}.
Hear{H8085}{H8798)}, O my people{H5971}, and I will speak{H1696}{H8762)}; O Israel{H3478}, and I will testify{H5749}{H8686)} against thee: I am God{H430}, even thy God{H430}.
I will not reprove{H3198}{H8686)} thee for thy sacrifices{H2077} or thy burnt offerings{H5930}, to have been continually{H8548} before me.
I will take{H3947}{H8799)} no bullock{H6499} out of thy house{H1004}, nor he goats{H6260} out of thy folds{H4356}.
For every beast{H2416} of the forest{H3293} is mine, and the cattle{H929} upon a thousand{H505} hills{H2042}.
I know{H3045}{H8804)} all the fowls{H5775} of the mountains{H2022}: and the wild beasts{H2123} of the field{H7704} are mine{H5978}.
If I were hungry{H7456}{H8799)}, I would not tell{H559}{H8799)} thee: for the world{H8398} is mine, and the fulness{H4393} thereof.
Will I eat{H398}{H8799)} the flesh{H1320} of bulls{H47}, or drink{H8354}{H8799)} the blood{H1818} of goats{H6260}?
Offer{H2076}{H8798)} unto God{H430} thanksgiving{H8426}; and pay{H7999}{H8761)} thy vows{H5088} unto the most High{H5945}:
And call{H7121}{H8798)} upon me in the day{H3117} of trouble{H6869}: I will deliver{H2502}{H8762)} thee, and thou shalt glorify{H3513}{H8762)} me.
But unto the wicked{H7563} God{H430} saith{H559}{H8804)}, What hast thou to do to declare{H5608}{H8763)} my statutes{H2706}, or that thou shouldest take{H5375}{H8799)} my covenant{H1285} in thy mouth{H6310}?
Seeing thou hatest{H8130}{H8804)} instruction{H4148}, and castest{H7993}{H8686)} my words{H1697} behind{H310} thee.
When thou sawest{H7200}{H8804)} a thief{H1590}, then thou consentedst{H7521}{H8799)} with him, and hast been partaker{H2506} with adulterers{H5003}{H8764)}.
Thou givest{H7971}{H8804)} thy mouth{H6310} to evil{H7451}, and thy tongue{H3956} frameth{H6775}{H8686)} deceit{H4820}.
Thou sittest{H3427}{H8799)} and speakest{H1696}{H8762)} against thy brother{H251}; thou{H5414}{H8799)} slanderest{H1848} thine own mother's{H517} son{H1121}.
These things hast thou done{H6213}{H8804)}, and I kept silence{H2790}{H8689)}; thou thoughtest{H1819}{H8765)} that I was altogether{H1961}{H8800)} such an one as thyself: but I will reprove{H3198}{H8686)} thee, and set them in order{H6186}{H8799)} before thine eyes{H5869}.
Now consider{H995}{H8798)} this, ye that forget{H7911}{H8802)} God{H433}, lest I tear you in pieces{H2963}{H8799)}, and there be none to deliver{H5337}{H8688)}.
Whoso offereth{H2076}{H8802)} praise{H8426} glorifieth{H3513}{H8762)} me: and to him that ordereth{H7760}{H8804)} his conversation{H1870} aright will I shew{H7200}{H8686)} the salvation{H3468} of God{H430}.
