The mighty God, even the LORD, 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. |
3
|
Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him. |
4
|
He shall call to the heavens from 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. Selah. |
7
|
Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: I am God, even thy God. |
8
|
I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt offerings, to have been 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 fowls 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 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, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth? |
17
|
Seeing thou hatest instruction, and casteth my words behind thee. |
18
|
When thou sawest a thief, then 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 an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set 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 praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his aconversation aright will I shew the salvation of God. |
