1
The Mighty One, God, the LORD,1 speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to the place where it sets.22
From Zion,3 perfect in beauty,4 God shines forth.53
Our God comes6 and will not be silent;7 a fire devours8 before him,9 and around him a tempest10 rages.
4
He summons the heavens above, and the earth,11 that he may judge his people:125
"Gather to me my consecrated ones,13 who made a covenant14 with me by sacrifice."
6
And the heavens proclaim15 his righteousness, for God himself is judge.16 "Selah"
7
"Hear, O my people, and I will speak, O Israel, and I will testify17 against you: I am God, your God.188
I do not rebuke19 you for your sacrifices or your burnt offerings,20 which are ever before me.
9
I have no need of a bull21 from your stall or of goats22 from your pens,2310
for every animal of the forest24 is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills.25
