Psalms 50:1-9 ▼

1 A Psalm of Asaph. God of gods, YHWH, speaks and calls the earth, from the rising of the sun to the going down.

2 From Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines forth.

3 Our God comes and will not be silent; before His face a fire devours, and all around Him it will storm exceedingly.

4 He calls to the heavens from above, and to the earth, for the judging of His people:

5 “Gather to Me My holy ones, those having cut a covenant with Me by sacrifice.”

6 And let the heavens declare His righteousness—for God Himself is Judge. Selah

7 “Hear, O My people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against you: I am God, your God.

8 It is not over your sacrifices that I rebuke you, or your burnt offerings before me continually.

9 I will not take a bull from your house or male goats from your folds.
