1 - A Psalm of Asaph. The God of gods--Jehovah--hath spoken, And He calleth to the earth From the rising of the sun unto its going in.

2 - From Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shone.

3 - Our God cometh, and is not silent, Fire before Him doth devour, And round about him it hath been very tempestuous.

4 - He doth call unto the heavens from above, And unto the earth, to judge His people.

5 - Gather ye to Me My saints, Making covenant with Me over a sacrifice.

6 - And the heavens declare His righteousness, For God Himself <FI>is<Fi> judge. Selah.

7 - Hear, O My people, and I speak, O Israel, and I testify against thee, God, thy God <FI>am<Fi> I.

8 - Not for thy sacrifices do I reprove thee, Yea, thy burnt-offerings <FI>Are<Fi> before Me continually.

9 - I take not from thy house a bullock, From thy folds he goats.

10 - For Mine <FI>is<Fi> every beast of the forest, The cattle on the hills of oxen.

11 - I have known every fowl of the mountains, And the wild beast of the field <FI>is<Fi> with Me.

12 - If I am hungry I tell not to thee, For Mine <FI>is<Fi> the world and its fulness.

13 - Do I eat the flesh of bulls, And drink the blood of he-goats?

14 - Sacrifice to God confession, And complete to the Most High thy vows.

15 - And call Me in a day of adversity, I deliver thee, and thou honourest Me.

16 - And to the wicked hath God said: What to thee--to recount My statutes? That thou liftest up My covenant on thy mouth?

17 - Yea, thou hast hated instruction, And dost cast My words behind thee.

18 - If thou hast seen a thief, Then thou art pleased with him, And with adulterers <FI>is<Fi> thy portion.

19 - Thy mouth thou hast sent forth with evil, And thy tongue joineth deceit together,

20 - Thou sittest, against thy brother thou speakest, Against a son of thy mother givest slander.

21 - These thou didst, and I kept silent, Thou hast thought that I am like thee, I reprove thee, and set in array before thine eyes.

22 - Understand this, I pray you, Ye who are forgetting God, Lest I tear, and there is no deliverer.

23 - He who is sacrificing praise honoureth Me, As to him who maketh a way, I cause him to look on the salvation of God!
