The mighty one calls

1
The Mighty One, God the LORD, speaks and summons the earth from where the sun rises to where it sets.
2
From Zion, perfect in beauty, God shines forth.
3
Our God approaches and will not be silent! Consuming fire precedes Him, and a tempest rages around Him.
4
He summons the heavens above, and the earth, that He may judge His people:
5
“Gather to Me My saints, who made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.”
6
And the heavens proclaim His righteousness, for God Himself is Judge.(a)
7
Selah “Hear, O My people, and I will speak, O Israel, and I will testify against you: I am God, your God.
8
I do not rebuke you for your sacrifices, and your burnt offerings are ever before Me.
9
I have no need for a bull from your stall or goats from your pens,
10
for every beast of the forest is Mine— the cattle on a thousand hills.
11
I know every bird in the mountains, and the creatures of the field are Mine.
12
If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world is Mine, and the fullness thereof.
13
Do I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
14
Sacrifice a thank offering to God, and fulfill your vows to the Most High.
15
Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor Me.”
16
To the wicked, however, God says, “What right have you to recite My statutes and to bear My covenant on your lips?
17
For you hate My instruction and cast My words behind you.
18
When you see a thief, you befriend him, and throw in your lot with adulterers.
19
You unleash your mouth for evil and unharness your tongue for deceit.
20
You sit and malign your brother; you slander your own mother’s son.
21
You have done these things, and I kept silent; you thought I was (b) just like you. But now I rebuke you and accuse you to your face.(c)
22
Now consider this, you who forget God, lest I tear you to pieces, with no one to rescue you:
23
He who sacrifices a thank offering honors Me, and to him who rights his way, I will show the salvation of God.”

The mighty one calls

1
The Mighty One, God, the LORD, 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.”
