NASB95 Psalms 50 Chapter
50:1
The Mighty One, God, the Lord, has spoken, And summoned the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting.
50:2
Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God has shone forth.
50:3
May our God come and not keep silence; Fire devours before Him, And it is very tempestuous around Him.
50:4
He summons the heavens above, And the earth, to judge His people:
50:5
"Gather My godly ones to Me, Those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice."
50:6
And the heavens declare His righteousness, For God Himself is judge. Selah.
50:7
"Hear, O My people, and I will speak; O Israel, I will testify against you; I am God, your God.
50:8
"I do not reprove you for your sacrifices, And your burnt offerings are continually before Me.
50:9
"I shall take no young bull out of your house Nor male goats out of your folds.
50:10
"For every beast of the forest is Mine, The cattle on a thousand hills.
50:11
"I know every bird of the mountains, And everything that moves in the field is Mine.
50:12
"If I were hungry I would not tell you, For the world is Mine, and all it contains.
50:13
"Shall I eat the flesh of bulls Or drink the blood of male goats?
50:14
"Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving And pay your vows to the Most High;
50:15
Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I shall rescue you, and you will honor Me."
50:16
But to the wicked God says, "What right have you to tell of My statutes And to take My covenant in your mouth?
50:17
"For you hate discipline, And you cast My words behind you.
50:18
"When you see a thief, you are pleased with him, And you associate with adulterers.
50:19
"You let your mouth loose in evil And your tongue frames deceit.
50:20
"You sit and speak against your brother; You slander your own mother's son.
50:21
"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.
50:22
"Now consider this, you who forget God, Or I will tear you in pieces, and there will be none to deliver.
50:23
"He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors Me; And to him who orders his way aright I shall show the salvation of God."
