Of Asaph. The God of gods, even the Lord, has sent out his voice, and the earth is full of fear; from the coming up of the sun to its going down. +From Zion, most beautiful of places, God has sent out his light. +Our God will come, and will not keep quiet; with fire burning before him, and storm-winds round him. +His voice will go out to the heavens and to the earth, for the judging of his people: +Let my saints come together to me; those who have made an agreement with me by offerings. +And let the heavens make clear his righteousness; for God himself is the judge. (Selah.) +Give ear, O my people, to my words; O Israel, I will be a witness against you; I am God, even your God. +I will not take up a cause against you because of your offerings, or because of your burned offerings, which are ever before me. +I will take no ox out of your house, or he-goats from your flocks; +For every beast of the woodland is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills. +I see all the birds of the mountains, and the beasts of the field are mine. +If I had need of food, I would not give you word of it; for the earth is mine and all its wealth. +Am I to take the flesh of the ox for my food, or the blood of goats for my drink? +Make an offering of praise to God; keep the agreements which you have made with the Most High; +Let your voice come up to me in the day of trouble; I will be your saviour, so that you may give glory to me. +But to the sinner, God says, What are you doing, talking of my laws, or taking the words of my agreement in your mouth? +Seeing that you have no desire for my teaching, turning your back on my words. +When you saw a thief, you were in agreement with him, and you were joined with those who took other men's wives. +You have given your mouth to evil, your tongue to words of deceit. +You say evil of your brother; you make false statements against your mother's son. +These things have you done, and I said nothing; it seemed to you that I was such a one as yourself; but I will make a protest against you, and put them in order before your eyes. +Now keep this in mind, you who have no memory of God, for fear that you may be crushed under my hand, with no one to give you help: +Whoever makes an offering of praise gives glory to me; and to him who is upright in his ways I will make clear the salvation of God. |
