- The Mighty One, God, the LORD, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to the place where it sets.
- From Zion, perfect in beauty, God shines forth.
- Our God comes and will not be silent; a fire devours before him, and around him a tempest rages.
- He summons the heavens above, and the earth, that he may judge his people:
- "Gather to me my consecrated ones, who made a covenant with me by sacrifice."

- The Mighty One, God, the LORD, has spoken, And summoned the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting.
- Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God has shone forth.
- May our God come and not keep silence; Fire devours before Him, And it is very tempestuous around Him.
- 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 proclaim his righteousness, for God himself is judge. Selah
- "Hear, O my people, and I will speak, O Israel, and I will testify against you: I am God, your God.
- I do not rebuke you for your sacrifices or your burnt offerings, which are ever before me.
- I have no need of a bull from your stall or of goats from your pens,
- for every animal of the forest is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills.
|
- 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, And your burnt offerings are continually before Me.
- "I shall take no young bull out of your house Nor male goats out of your folds.
- "For every beast of the forest is Mine, The cattle on a thousand hills.
|
- I know every bird in the mountains, and the creatures of the field are mine.
- If I were hungry I would not tell you, for the world is mine, and all that is in it.
- Do I eat the flesh of bulls or drink the blood of goats?
- Sacrifice thank offerings to God, fulfill your vows to the Most High,
- and call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me."

- "I know every bird of the mountains, And everything that moves in the field is Mine.

- "Shall I eat the flesh of bulls Or drink the blood of male goats?
- "Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving And pay your vows to the Most High;
- Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I shall rescue you, and you will honor Me."
