50:1 |
The Mighty One, God, the LORD, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to the place where it sets.
|
50:2 |
From Zion, perfect in beauty, God shines forth.
|
50:3 |
Our God comes and will not be silent; a fire devours before him, and around him a tempest rages.
|
50:4 |
He summons the heavens above, and the earth, that he may judge his people:
|
50:5 |
"Gather to me my consecrated ones, who made a covenant with me by sacrifice."
|
50:6 |
And the heavens proclaim his righteousness, for God himself is judge. ((Selah))
|
50:7 |
"Hear, O my people, and I will speak, O Israel, and I will testify against you: I am God, your God.
|
50:8 |
I do not rebuke you for your sacrifices or your burnt offerings, which are ever before me.
|
50:9 |
I have no need of a bull from your stall or of goats from your pens,
|
50:10 |
for every animal of the forest is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills.
|
50:11 |
I know every bird in the mountains, and the creatures of the field are mine.
|
50:12 |
If I were hungry I would not tell you, for the world is mine, and all that is in it.
|
50:13 |
Do I eat the flesh of bulls or drink the blood of goats?
|
50:14 |
Sacrifice thank offerings to God, fulfill your vows to the Most High,
|
50:15 |
and call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me."
|
50:16 |
But to the wicked, God says: "What right have you to recite my laws or take my covenant on your lips?
|
50:17 |
You hate my instruction and cast my words behind you.
|
50:18 |
When you see a thief, you join with him; you throw in your lot with adulterers.
|
50:19 |
You use your mouth for evil and harness your tongue to deceit.
|
50:20 |
You speak continually against your brother and slander your own mother's son.
|
50:21 |
These things you have done and I kept silent; you thought I was altogether `'like you. But I will rebuke you and accuse you to your face.
|
50:22 |
"Consider this, you who forget God, or I will tear you to pieces, with none to rescue:
|
50:23 |
He who sacrifices thank offerings honors me, and he prepares the way so that I may show him the salvation of God."
