Psalm 50 (WEBP)

[1] The Mighty One, God, Yahweh, speaks, and calls the earth from sunrise to sunset.
[2] Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines out.
[3] Our God comes, and does not keep silent. A fire devours before him. It is very stormy around him.
[4] He calls to the heavens above, to the earth, that he may judge his people:
[5] “Gather my saints together to me, those who have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.”
[6] The heavens shall declare his righteousness, for God himself is judge. Selah.
[7] “Hear, my people, and I will speak. Israel, I will testify against you. I am God, your God.
[8] I don’t rebuke you for your sacrifices. Your burnt offerings are continually before me.
[9] I have no need for a bull from your stall, nor male goats from your pens.
[10] For every animal of the forest is mine, and the livestock on a thousand hills.
[11] I know all the birds of the mountains. The wild animals of the field are mine.
[12] If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world is mine, and all that is in it.
[13] Will I eat the meat of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
[14] Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving. Pay your vows to the Most High.
[15] Call on me in the day of trouble. I will deliver you, and you will honor me.”
[16] But to the wicked God says, “What right do you have to declare my statutes, that you have taken my covenant on your lips,
[17] since you hate instruction, and throw my words behind you?
[18] When you saw a thief, you consented with him, and have participated with adulterers.
[19] “You give your mouth to evil. Your tongue frames deceit.
[20] You sit and speak against your brother. You slander your own mother’s son.
[21] You have done these things, and I kept silent. You thought that I was just like you. I will rebuke you, and accuse you in front of your eyes.
[22] “Now consider this, you who forget God, lest I tear you into pieces, and there be no one to deliver.
[23] Whoever offers the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifies me, and prepares his way so that I will show God’s salvation to him.”

King James w/Strong’s #s

Psalm 50 (KJVS)

[1] The mighty God, even the Lord, hath spoken, And called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.
[2] Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined.
[3] Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: A fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.
[4] He shall call to the heavens from above, And to the earth, that he may judge his people.
[5] Gather my saints together unto me; Those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.
[6] And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: For God is judge himself. Selah.
[7] Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: I am God, even thy God.
[8] I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices Or thy burnt offerings, to have been continually before me.
[9] I will take no bullock out of thy house, Nor he goats out of thy folds.
[10] For every beast of the forest is mine, And the cattle upon a thousand hills.
[11] I know all the fowls of the mountains: And the wild beasts of the field are mine.
[12] If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: For the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.
[13] Will I eat the flesh of bulls, Or drink the blood of goats?
[14] Offer unto God thanksgiving; And pay thy vows unto the most High:
[15] And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.
[16] But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth?
[17] Seeing thou hatest instruction, And castest my words behind thee.
[18] When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, And hast been partaker with adulterers.
[19] Thou givest thy mouth to evil, And thy tongue frameth deceit.
[20] Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; Thou slanderest thine own mother’s son.
[21] These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; Thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: But I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.
[22] Now consider this, ye that forget God, Lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.
[23] Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: And to him that ordereth his conversation aright will I shew the salvation of God.
