Salmos 50:10-20

10 Porque meu é todo animal da selva, e o gado sobre milhares de outeiros.
11 Conheço todas as aves dos montes, e tudo o que se move no campo é meu.
12 Se eu tivesse fome, não to diria pois meu é o mundo e a sua plenitude.
13 Comerei eu carne de touros? ou beberei sangue de bodes?
14 Oferece a Deus por sacrifício ações de graças, e paga ao Altíssimo os teus votos;
15 e invoca-me no dia da angústia; eu te livrarei, e tu me glorificarás.
16 Mas ao ímpio diz Deus: Que fazes tu em recitares os meus estatutos, e em tomares o meu pacto na tua boca,
17 visto que aborreces a correção, e lanças as minhas palavras para trás de ti?
18 Quando vês um ladrão, tu te comprazes nele; e tens parte com os adúlteros.
19 Soltas a tua boca para o mal, e a tua língua trama enganos.
20 Tu te sentas a falar contra teu irmão; difamas o filho de tua mãe.

Salmos 50:10-20 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO PSALM 50

\\<>\\. This psalm is called a psalm of Asaph; either because it was composed by him under divine inspiration, since he was a prophet and a seer, 1Ch 25:2, 2Ch 29:30; or because it was delivered to him to be sung in public service, he being a chief musician; see 1Ch 16:7; and so it may be rendered, "a psalm for Asaph"; or "unto Asaph" {o}; which was directed, sent, and delivered to him, and might be written by David; and, as Junius thinks, after the angel had appeared to him, and he was directed where he should build an altar to the Lord, 1Ch 21:18. The Targum, Kimchi, and R. Obadiah Gaon, interpret this psalm of the day of judgment; and Jarchi takes it to be a prophecy of the future redemption by their expected Messiah; and indeed it does refer to the times of the Gospel dispensation; for it treats of the calling of the Gentiles, of the abrogation of legal sacrifices, and of the controversy the Lord would have with the Jews for retaining them, and rejecting pure, spiritual, and evangelical worship. {o} Poal "ipsi Asaph", Tigurine version, Vatablus; "Asapho", Junius & Tremellius, Piscator; so Ainsworth.
