Psalm 50 - American Standard Version 2015 American Standard Version 2015
Psalm 50

¹ {\b A Psalm of Asaph.}\par\par\tab The Mighty One, God, Jehovah, hath spoken,\par\tab And called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.

² Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty,\par\tab God hath shined forth.

³ Our God cometh, and doth not keep silence:\par\tab A fire devoureth before him,\par\tab And it is very tempestuous round about him.

⁴ He calleth to the heavens above,\par\tab And to the earth, that he may judge his people:

⁵ Gather my saints together unto me,\par\tab Those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.

⁶ And the heavens shall declare his righteousness;\par\tab For God is judge himself. {\i Selah

⁷ Hear, O my people, and I will speak;\par\tab O Israel, and I will testify unto thee:\par\tab I am God, {\i even} thy God.

⁸ I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices;\par\tab And thy burnt-offerings are continually before me.

⁹ I will take no bullock out of thy house,\par\tab Nor he-goats out of thy folds.

¹⁰ For every beast of the forest is mine,\par\tab And the cattle upon a thousand hills.

¹¹ I know all the birds of the mountains;\par\tab And the wild beasts of the field are mine.

¹² If I were hungry, I would not tell thee;\par\tab For the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.

¹³ Will I eat the flesh of bulls,\par\tab Or drink the blood of goats?

¹⁴ Offer unto God the sacrifice of thanksgiving;\par\tab And pay thy vows unto the Most High;

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

¹⁶ But unto the wicked God saith,\par\tab What hast thou to do to declare my statutes,\par\tab And that thou hast taken my covenant in thy mouth,

¹⁷ Seeing thou hatest instruction,\par\tab And castest my words behind thee?

¹⁸ When thou sawest a thief, thou consentedst with him,\par\tab And hast been partaker with adulterers.

¹⁹ Thou givest thy mouth to evil,\par\tab And thy tongue frameth deceit.

²⁰ Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother;\par\tab Thou slanderest thine own mother's son.

²¹ These things hast thou done, and I kept silence;\par\tab Thou thoughtest that I was altogether such a one as thyself:\par\tab {\i But} I will reprove thee, and set {\i them} in order before thine eyes.

²² Now consider this, ye that forget God,\par\tab Lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver:

²³ Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifieth me;\par\tab And to him that ordereth his way {\i aright}\par\tab Will I show the salvation of God.\par
