Psalms - Chapter 50 | American Standard Version

  • 1. A Psalm of Asaph. The Mighty One, God, Jehovah, hath spoken, And called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.
  • 2. Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined forth.
  • 3. Our God cometh, and doth not keep silence: A fire devoureth before him, And it is very tempestuous round about him.
  • 4. He calleth to the heavens above, And to the earth, that he may judge his people:
  • 5. Gather my saints together unto me, Those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.
  • 6. And the heavens shall declare his righteousness; For God is judge himself. {cf15i Selah.}
  • 7. Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify unto thee: I am God, {cf15i even} thy God.
  • 8. I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices; And thy burnt-offerings are continually before me.
  • 9. I will take no bullock out of thy house, Nor he-goats out of thy folds.
  • 10. For every beast of the forest is mine, And the cattle upon a thousand hills.
  • 11. I know all the birds of the mountains; And the wild beasts of the field are mine.
  • 12. If I were hungry, I would not tell thee; For the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.
  • 13. Will I eat the flesh of bulls, Or drink the blood of goats?
  • 14. Offer unto God the sacrifice of thanksgiving; And pay thy vows unto the Most High:
  • 15. And call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.
  • 16. But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, And that thou hast taken my covenant in thy mouth,
  • 17. Seeing thou hatest instruction, And castest my words behind thee?
  • 18. When thou sawest a thief, thou consentedst with him, And hast been partaker with adulterers.
  • 19. Thou givest thy mouth to evil, And thy tongue frameth deceit.
  • 20. Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; Thou slanderest thine own mother's son.
  • 21. These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; Thou thoughtest that I was altogether such a one as thyself: {cf15i But} I will reprove thee, and set {cf15i them} in order before thine eyes.
  • 22. Now consider this, ye that forget God, Lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver:
  • 23. Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifieth me; And to him that ordereth his way {cf15i aright} Will I show the salvation of God.
