50:1 A
Psalm
of
Asaph.
The
God
of
gods--Jehovah--hath
spoken,
And
He
calleth
to
the
earth
From
the
rising
of
the
sun
unto
its
going
in.
50:2 From
Zion,
the
perfection
of
beauty,
God
shone.
50:3 Our
God
cometh,
and
is
not
silent,
Fire
before
Him
doth
devour,
And
round
about
him
it
hath
been
very
tempestuous.
50:4 He
doth
call
unto
the
heavens
from
above,
And
unto
the
earth,
to
judge
His
people.
50:5 Gather
ye
to
Me
My
saints,
Making
covenant
with
Me
over
a
sacrifice.
50:6 And
the
heavens
declare
His
righteousness,
For
God
Himself
[is]
judge.
Selah.
50:7 Hear,
O
My
people,
and
I
speak,
O
Israel,
and
I
testify
against
thee,
God,
thy
God
[am]
I.
50:8 Not
for
thy
sacrifices
do
I
reprove
thee,
Yea,
thy
burnt-offerings
[Are]
before
Me
continually.
50:9 I
take
not
from
thy
house
a
bullock,
From
thy
folds
he
goats.
50:10 For
Mine
[is]
every
beast
of
the
forest,
The
cattle
on
the
hills
of
oxen.
50:11 I
have
known
every
fowl
of
the
mountains,
And
the
wild
beast
of
the
field
[is]
with
Me.
50:12 If
I
am
hungry
I
tell
not
to
thee,
For
Mine
[is]
the
world
and
its
fulness.
50:13 Do
I
eat
the
flesh
of
bulls,
And
drink
the
blood
of
he-goats
50:14 Sacrifice
to
God
confession,
And
complete
to
the
Most
High
thy
vows.
50:15 And
call
Me
in
a
day
of
adversity,
I
deliver
thee,
and
thou
honourest
Me.
50:16 And
to
the
wicked
hath
God
said:
What
to
thee--to
recount
My
statutes
That
thou
liftest
up
My
covenant
on
thy
mouth
50:17 Yea,
thou
hast
hated
instruction,
And
dost
cast
My
words
behind
thee.
50:18 If
thou
hast
seen
a
thief,
Then
thou
art
pleased
with
him,
And
with
adulterers
[is]
thy
portion.
50:19 Thy
mouth
thou
hast
sent
forth
with
evil,
And
thy
tongue
joineth
deceit
together,
50:20 Thou
sittest,
against
thy
brother
thou
speakest,
Against
a
son
of
thy
mother
givest
slander.
50:21 These
thou
didst,
and
I
kept
silent,
Thou
hast
thought
that
I
am
like
thee,
I
reprove
thee,
and
set
in
array
before
thine
eyes.
50:22 Understand
this,
I
pray
you,
Ye
who
are
forgetting
God,
Lest
I
tear,
and
there
is
no
deliverer.
50:23 He
who
is
sacrificing
praise
honoureth
Me,
As
to
him
who
maketh
a
way,
I
cause
him
to
look
on
the
salvation
of
God!
