Psalms Chapter 50 (NKJV Bible)

Compare with Version:

¹ A Psalm of Asaph. [1] The [1†]Mighty One, God the LORD, Has spoken and called the earth From the rising of the sun to its going down.

² Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, [2†]God will shine forth.

³ Our God shall come, and shall not keep silent; [3†]A fire shall devour before Him, And it shall be very tempestuous all around Him.

⁴ [4†]He shall call to the heavens from above, And to the earth, that He may judge His people:

⁵ “Gather [5†]My saints together to Me, [6†]Those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.”

⁶ Let the [7†]heavens declare His righteousness, For [8†]God Himself is Judge. Selah

⁷ “Hear, O My people, and I will speak, O Israel, and I will testify against you; [9†]I am God, your God!

⁸ [10†]I will not rebuke you [11†]for your sacrifices Or your burnt offerings, Which are continually before Me.

⁹ [12†]I will not take a bull from your house, Nor goats out of your folds.

¹⁰ For every beast of the forest is Mine, And the cattle on a thousand hills.

¹¹ I know all the birds of the mountains, And the wild beasts of the field are Mine.

¹² “If I were hungry, I would not tell you; [13†]For the world is Mine, and all its fullness.

¹³ [14†]Will I eat the flesh of bulls, Or drink the blood of goats?

¹⁴ [15†]Offer to God thanksgiving, And [16†]pay your vows to the Most High.

¹⁵ [17†]Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.”

¹⁶ But to the wicked God says: “What right have you to declare My statutes, Or take My covenant in your mouth,

¹⁷ [18†]Seeing you hate instruction And cast My words behind you?

¹⁸ When you saw a thief, you [19†]consented with him, And have been a [20†]partaker with adulterers.

¹⁹ You give your mouth to evil, And [21†]your tongue frames deceit.

²⁰ You sit and speak against your brother; You slander your own mother’s son.

²¹ These things you have done, and I kept silent; [22†]You thought that I was altogether like you; But I will rebuke you, And [23†]set them in order before your eyes.

²² “Now consider this, you who [24†]forget God, Lest I tear you in pieces, And there be none to deliver:

²³ Whoever offers praise glorifies Me; And [25†]to him who orders his conduct aright I will show the salvation of God.”
