The Book of Psalms 50

Text size

1 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 castest 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 other’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 conversation aright will I shew the salvation of God ⚑
