Psalms 50
1 The majesty of God in the Church. 5 His order to gather saints. 7 The pleasure of God is not in ceremonies, 14 but in sincerity of obedience.

50:1 ¶
A psalm for Asaph. The God of gods, the Lord hath spoken: and he hath called the earth. From the rising of the sun, to the going down thereof:

50:2
Out of Sion the loveliness of his beauty.

50:3
God shall come manifestly: our God shall come, and shall not keep silence. A fire shall burn before him: and a mighty tempest shall be round about him.

50:4
He shall call heaven from above, and the earth, to judge his people.

50:5
Gather ye together his saints to him: who set his covenant before sacrifices.

50:6
And the heavens shall declare his justice: for God is judge.

50:7
Hear, O my people, and I will speak: O Israel, and I will testify to thee: I am God, thy God.

50:8
I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices: and thy burnt offerings are always in my sight.

50:9
I will not take calves out of thy house: nor he goats out of thy flocks.

50:10
For all the beasts of the woods are mine: the cattle on the hills, and the oxen.

50:11
I know all the fowls of the air: and with me is the beauty of the field.

50:12
If I should be hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.

50:13
Shall I eat the flesh of bullocks? or shall I drink the blood of goats?

50:14
Offer to God the sacrifice of praise: and pay thy vows to the most High.

50:15
And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.

50:16
But to the sinner God hath said: Why dost thou declare my justices, and take my covenant in thy mouth?

50:17
Seeing thou hast hated discipline: and hast cast my words behind thee.

50:18
If thou didst see a thief thou didst run with him: and with adulterers thou hast been a partaker.

50:19
Thy mouth hath abounded with evil, and thy tongue framed deceits.

50:20
Sitting thou didst speak against thy brother, and didst lay a scandal against thy mother's son:

50:21
These things hast thou done, and I was silent. Thou thoughtest unjustly that I should be like to thee: but I will reprove thee, and set before thy face.

50:22
Understand these things, you that forget God; lest he snatch you away, and there be none to deliver you.

50:23
The sacrifice of praise shall glorify me: and there is the way by which I will shew him the salvation of God.
