Psalm 50:2

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

From out of Sion hill, which of excellency And beauty the perfection is, God shined gloriously.

See the chapter Copy

Hear, Isr'el's Shepherd! like a flock thou that dost Joseph guide; Shine forth, O thou that dost between the cherubims abide.

Mount Sion stands most beautiful, the joy of all the land; The city of the mighty King on her north side doth stand.

O Lord God, unto whom alone all vengeance doth belong; O mighty God, who vengeance own'st, shine forth, avenging wrong.

O let thy hand be still upon the Man of thy right hand, The Son of man, whom for thyself thou madest strong to stand.

Thy goings they have seen, O God; the steps of majesty Of my God, and my mighty King, within the sanctuary.

The Lord within her palaces is for a refuge known.

In Ephraim's, and Benjamin's and in Manasseh's sight, O come for our salvation; stir up thy strength and might.
