Psalm 50 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

Out of Zion ^H6726, the perfection ^H4359 of beauty ^H3308,

God ^H430 has shone ^H3313.

May our God ^H430 come ^H935 and not keep ^H2790 silent ^H2790;

Fire ^H784 devours ^H398 before ^H6440 Him,

And a storm ^H8175 is ^H8175 violently ^H3966 raging ^H8175 around ^H5439 Him.

He summons ^H7121 the heavens ^H8064 above ^H4480 H5921,

And the earth ^H776, to judge ^H1777 His people ^H5971:

“Gather ^H622 My godly ^H2623 ones ^H2623 to Me,

Those who have made ^H3772 a covenant ^H1285 with Me by sacrifice ^H2077.”

And the heavens ^H8064 declare ^H5046 His righteousness ^H6664,

For God ^H430 Himself ^H1931 is judge ^H8199. Selah ^H5542

“Hear ^H8085, My people ^H5971, and I will speak ^H1696;

Israel ^H3478, I will testify ^H5749 [fn]against you;

I am God ^H430, your God ^H430.

“I do not rebuke ^H3198 you for your sacrifices ^H2077,

And your burnt ^H5930 offerings ^H5930 are continually ^H8548 before ^H5048 Me.

“I will not take ^H3947 a bull ^H6499 from your house ^H1004,

Nor male ^H6260 goats ^H6260 from your folds ^H4356.

“For every ^H3605 animal ^H2416 of the forest ^H3293 is Mine,

The cattle ^H929 on a thousand ^H505 hills ^H2022.

“I know ^H3045 every ^H3605 bird ^H5775 of the mountains ^H2022,

And everything ^H2123 that ^H2123 moves ^H2123 in the field ^H7704 is [fn]Mine ^H5973.

“If ^H518 I were hungry ^H7456 I would not tell ^H559 you,

For the world ^H8398 is Mine, and [fn]everything ^H4393 it contains ^H4393.

“Shall I eat ^H398 the flesh ^H1320 of [fn]bulls ^H47

Or drink ^H8354 the blood ^H1818 of male ^H6260 goats ^H6260?

“Offer ^H2076 God ^H430 a ^H2076 sacrifice ^H2076 of thanksgiving ^H8426

And pay ^H7999 your vows ^H5088 to the Most ^H5945 High ^H5945;

Call ^H7121 upon Me on the day ^H3117 of trouble ^H6869;

I will rescue ^H2502 you, and you will honor ^H3513 Me.”

But to the wicked ^H7563 God ^H430 says ^H559,

“What ^H4100 right do you have to tell ^H5608 of My statutes ^H2706

And to take ^H5375 My covenant ^H1285 in your mouth ^H6310?

“For you yourself ^H859 hate ^H8130 discipline ^H4148,

And you throw ^H7993 My words ^H1697 behind ^H310 you.

“When ^H518 you see ^H7200 a thief ^H1590, you become ^H7521 friends ^H7521 with him,

And [fn]you associate ^H2506 with adulterers ^H5003.

“You [fn]let ^H7971 your mouth ^H6310 loose ^H7971 in evil ^H7451,

And your tongue ^H3956 harnesses ^H6775 deceit ^H4820.

“You sit ^H3427 and speak ^H1696 against your brother ^H251;

You slander ^H5414 H1848 your own mother’s ^H517 son ^H1121.

“These ^H428 things ^H428 you have done ^H6213 and I kept ^H2790 silent ^H2790;

You thought ^H1819 that I was just like ^H3644 you;

I will rebuke ^H3198 you and present ^H6186 the case before your eyes ^H5869.

“Now ^H4994 consider ^H995 this ^H2088, you who forget ^H7911 God ^H433,

Or ^H6435 I will tear ^H2963 you in pieces, and there ^H369 will ^H369 be ^H369 no ^H369 one ^H369 to save ^H5337 you.

“He who offers ^H2076 a ^H2076 sacrifice ^H2076 of thanksgiving ^H8426 honors ^H3513 Me;

And to him who sets ^H7760 his way ^H1870 properly

I will show ^H7200 the salvation ^H3468 of God ^H430.”
