Psalms 50:1-8

¹“A psalm of Assaph.” The God of gods, the Lord, speaketh, and calleth the earth, from the rising of the sun unto his setting.

²Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shineth forth.

³Our God is coming, and will not keep silence: a fire devoureth before him, and round him there rageth a mighty storm.

⁴He will call to the heavens above, and to the earth, to judge his people.

⁵“Gather together unto me my pious servants, who make a covenant with me by sacrifice.”

⁶And the heavens tell of his righteousness; for God is judge himself. Selah.

⁷“Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: God, thy God, am I.

⁸Not because of thy sacrifices will I reprove thee; and thy burnt-offerings are continually before me.
