真诚敬拜的必尊敬 神

亚萨的诗。

50 大能者 神耶和华已经说话,

从日出之地到日落之处呼唤大地。(本节在《马索拉文本》包括细字标题)

 神从全美的锡安,

已经彰显荣光。

我们的 神来临,决不缄默无声;

在他面前有火燃烧,

在他四周有暴风刮起。

他向天上、向地下呼唤,

为要审判自己的子民,说:

“你们把我的圣民聚集到我这里来,

就是那些用祭物与我立约的人。”

诸天宣扬他的公义,

因为 神自己就是审判者。

(细拉)

“我的子民哪!你们要听,我要说话;

以色列啊!我要控诉你;

我是 神,是你的 神。

我不是因你的祭物责备你,

你的燔祭常在我面前。

我不从你家里取公牛,

也不从你羊圈中取公山羊。

10 因为树林中的百兽是我的,

千山上的牲畜也是我的。

11 山中的雀鸟我都认识,

田野的走兽也都属我。

12 如果我饿了,我也不用对你说;

因为世界和其中所充满的,都是我的。

13 难道我要吃公牛的肉吗?

要喝公山羊的血吗?

14 你要以感谢为祭献给 神,

又要向至高者还你的愿。

15 在患难的日子,你呼求我。

我必搭救你,你也必尊敬我。”

16 但 神对恶人说:

“你怎么敢述说我的律例,

你的口怎么敢提到我的约呢?

17 至于你,你憎恨管教,

并且把我的话丢在背后。

18 你看见盗贼的时候,就乐于和他在一起;

你又与行淫的人有分。

19 你使你的口乱说坏话,

使你的舌头编造谎言。

20 你经常毁谤你的兄弟,

诬蔑你母亲的儿子。

21 你作了这些事,我默不作声;

你以为我和你一样?

其实我要责备你,要当面指控你。

22 忘记 神的人哪!你们要思想这事,

免得我把你们撕碎,没有人能搭救。

23 凡是以感谢为祭献上的,就是尊敬我;

那预备道路的,我必使他得见 神的救恩。”

真誠敬拜的必尊敬 神

亞薩的詩。

50 大能者 神耶和華已經說話,

從日出之地到日落之處呼喚大地。(本節在《馬索拉文本》包括細字標題)

 神從全美的錫安,

已經彰顯榮光。

我們的 神來臨,決不緘默無聲;

在他面前有火燃燒,

在他四周有暴風颳起。

他向天上、向地下呼喚,

為要審判自己的子民,說:

“你們把我的聖民聚集到我這裡來,

就是那些用祭物與我立約的人。”

諸天宣揚他的公義,

因為 神自己就是審判者。(細拉)

“我的子民哪!你們要聽,我要說話;

以色列啊!我要控訴你;

我是 神,是你的 神。

我不是因你的祭物責備你,

你的燔祭常在我面前。

我不從你家裡取公牛,

也不從你羊圈中取公山羊。

10 因為樹林中的百獸是我的,

千山上的牲畜也是我的。

11 山中的雀鳥我都認識,

田野的走獸也都屬我。

12 如果我餓了,我也不用對你說;

因為世界和其中所充滿的,都是我的。

13 難道我要吃公牛的肉嗎?

要喝公山羊的血嗎?

14 你要以感謝為祭獻給 神,

又要向至高者還你的願。

15 在患難的日子,你呼求我。

我必搭救你,你也必尊敬我。”

16 但 神對惡人說:

“你怎麼敢述說我的律例,

你的口怎麼敢提到我的約呢?

17 至於你,你憎恨管教,

並且把我的話丟在背後。

18 你看見盜賊的時候,就樂於和他在一起;

你又與行淫的人有分。

19 你使你的口亂說壞話,

使你的舌頭編造謊言。

20 你經常毀謗你的兄弟,

誣衊你母親的兒子。

21 你作了這些事,我默不作聲;

你以為我和你一樣?

其實我要責備你,要當面指控你。

22 忘記 神的人哪!你們要思想這事,

免得我把你們撕碎,沒有人能搭救。

23 凡是以感謝為祭獻上的,就是尊敬我;

那預備道路的,我必使他得見 神的救恩。”

Psalm 50

A psalm of Asaph.

The Mighty One, God, the Lord,(A)
    speaks and summons the earth
    from the rising of the sun to where it sets.(B)
From Zion,(C) perfect in beauty,(D)
    God shines forth.(E)
Our God comes(F)
    and will not be silent;(G)
a fire devours(H) before him,(I)
    and around him a tempest(J) rages.
He summons the heavens above,
    and the earth,(K) that he may judge his people:(L)
“Gather to me this consecrated people,(M)
    who made a covenant(N) with me by sacrifice.”
And the heavens proclaim(O) his righteousness,
    for he is a God of justice.[a][b](P)

“Listen, my people, and I will speak;
    I will testify(Q) against you, Israel:
    I am God, your God.(R)
I bring no charges(S) against you concerning your sacrifices
    or concerning your burnt offerings,(T) which are ever before me.
I have no need of a bull(U) from your stall
    or of goats(V) from your pens,(W)
10 for every animal of the forest(X) is mine,
    and the cattle on a thousand hills.(Y)
11 I know every bird(Z) in the mountains,
    and the insects in the fields(AA) are mine.
12 If I were hungry I would not tell you,
    for the world(AB) is mine, and all that is in it.(AC)
13 Do I eat the flesh of bulls
    or drink the blood of goats?

14 “Sacrifice thank offerings(AD) to God,
    fulfill your vows(AE) to the Most High,(AF)
15 and call(AG) on me in the day of trouble;(AH)
    I will deliver(AI) you, and you will honor(AJ) me.”

16 But to the wicked person, God says:

“What right have you to recite my laws
    or take my covenant(AK) on your lips?(AL)
17 You hate(AM) my instruction
    and cast my words behind(AN) you.
18 When you see a thief, you join(AO) with him;
    you throw in your lot with adulterers.(AP)
19 You use your mouth for evil
    and harness your tongue to deceit.(AQ)
20 You sit and testify against your brother(AR)
    and slander your own mother’s son.
21 When you did these things and I kept silent,(AS)
    you thought I was exactly[c] like you.
But I now arraign(AT) you
    and set my accusations(AU) before you.

22 “Consider this, you who forget God,(AV)
    or I will tear you to pieces, with no one to rescue you:(AW)
23 Those who sacrifice thank offerings honor me,
    and to the blameless[d] I will show my salvation.(AX)

God the Righteous Judge

A Psalm of Asaph.

50 The (A)Mighty One, God the Lord,
Has spoken and called the earth
From the rising of the sun to its going down.
Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty,
(B)God will shine forth.
Our God shall come, and shall not keep silent;
(C)A fire shall devour before Him,
And it shall be very tempestuous all around Him.

(D)He shall call to the heavens from above,
And to the earth, that He may judge His people:
“Gather (E)My saints together to Me,
(F)Those who have [a]made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.”
Let the (G)heavens declare His righteousness,
For (H)God Himself is Judge. Selah

“Hear, O My people, and I will speak,
O Israel, and I will testify against you;
(I)I am God, your God!
(J)I will not [b]rebuke you (K)for your sacrifices
Or your burnt offerings,
Which are continually before Me.
(L)I will not take a bull from your house,
Nor goats out of your folds.
10 For every beast of the forest is Mine,
And the cattle on a thousand hills.
11 I know all the birds of the mountains,
And the wild beasts of the field are Mine.

12 “If I were hungry, I would not tell you;
(M)For the world is Mine, and all its fullness.
13 (N)Will I eat the flesh of bulls,
Or drink the blood of goats?
14 (O)Offer to God thanksgiving,
And (P)pay your vows to the Most High.
15 (Q)Call upon Me in the day of trouble;
I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.”

16 But to the wicked God says:
“What right have you to declare My statutes,
Or take My covenant in your mouth,
17 (R)Seeing you hate instruction
And cast My words behind you?
18 When you saw a thief, you (S)consented[c] with him,
And have been a (T)partaker with adulterers.
19 You give your mouth to evil,
And (U)your tongue frames deceit.
20 You sit and speak against your brother;
You slander your own mother’s son.
21 These things you have done, and I kept silent;
(V)You thought that I was altogether like you;
But I will rebuke you,
And (W)set them in order before your eyes.

22 “Now consider this, you who (X)forget God,
Lest I tear you in pieces,
And there be none to deliver:
23 Whoever offers praise glorifies Me;
And (Y)to him who orders his conduct aright
I will show the salvation of God.”

Psalm 50

A Psalm of [a]Asaph.

The Mighty One, God, the Lord, speaks and calls the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting.

Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines forth.

Our God comes and does not keep silence; a fire devours before Him, and round about Him a mighty tempest rages.

He calls to the heavens above and to the earth, that He may judge His people:

Gather together to Me My saints [those who have found grace in My sight], those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.

And the heavens declare His righteousness (rightness and justice), for God, He is judge. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!

Hear, O My people, and I will speak; O Israel, I will testify to you and 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 bull from your house nor he-goat out of your folds.

10 For every beast of the forest is Mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills or upon the mountains where thousands are.

11 I know and am acquainted with all the birds of the mountains, and the wild animals of the field are Mine and are with Me, in My mind.

12 If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world and its fullness are Mine.(A)

13 Shall I eat the flesh of bulls or drink the blood of goats?

14 Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and pay your vows to the Most High,

15 And call on Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall honor and glorify Me.

16 But to the wicked, God says: What right have you to recite My statutes or take My covenant or pledge on your lips,

17 Seeing that you hate instruction and correction and cast My words behind you [discarding them]?

18 When you see a thief, you associate with him, and you have taken part with adulterers.

19 You give your mouth to evil, and your tongue frames deceit.

20 You sit and speak against your brother; you slander your own mother’s son.

21 These things you have done and I kept silent; you thought I was once entirely like you. But [now] I will reprove you and put [the charge] in order before your eyes.

22 Now consider this, you who forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.

23 He who brings an offering of praise and thanksgiving honors and glorifies Me; and he who orders his way aright [who prepares the way that I may show him], to him I will demonstrate the salvation of God.

  1. Psalm 50:1 Asaph was a Levite and one of the leaders of David’s choir. He was the head of one of the three families permanently charged with the temple music. His family formed a guild which bore his name and is frequently mentioned (II Chron. 20:14; 29:13; 29:30). Twelve psalms (50; 73-83) are attributed in the titles to the family of Asaph. 128 of Asaph’s family members, all singers, came back from Babylon and took part when the foundations of Zerubbabel’s temple were laid (Ezra 2:41; 3:10).
