Psalms 50:1-15

The mighty One, God, the LORD, has spoken, And summoned the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting [from east to west]. Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God has shone forth. May our God come and not keep silent; Fire devours before Him, And around Him a mighty tempest rages. He summons the heavens above, And the earth, to judge His people: “Gather My godly ones to Me, Those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.” And the heavens declare His righteousness, For God Himself is judge. Selah. ¶“Hear, O My people, and I will speak; O Israel, I will testify against you: I am God, your God. “I do not reprove you for your sacrifices; Your burnt offerings are continually before Me. “I will accept no young bull from your house Nor male goat from your folds. “For every beast of the forest is Mine, And the cattle on a thousand hills. “I know every bird of the mountains, And everything that moves in the field is Mine. “If I were hungry, I would not tell you, For the world and all it contains are Mine. [1 Cor 10:26] “Shall I eat the flesh of bulls Or drink the blood of male goats? “Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving And pay your vows to the Most High; Call on Me in the day of trouble; I will rescue you, and you shall honor and glorify Me.”
