Psalm 50
World English Bible
A Psalm by Asaph.
50 The Mighty One, God, Yahweh, 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.”
Salmos 50
Palabra de Dios para Todos
El Señor acusa
Canción de Asaf.
1 El SEÑOR, el Dios de dioses ha hablado.
Él ha llamado, de oriente a occidente,
a todos los habitantes de la tierra.
2 Dios resplandece desde Sion,
el monte de perfecta hermosura.
3 Nuestro Dios viene
y no lo hace en silencio.
Hay un fuego destructor delante de él
y a su alrededor se escucha una fuerte tormenta.
4 Dios le pide al cielo y a la tierra que sean testigos
cuando venga a juzgar a su gente.
5 «Mi pueblo fiel, reúnase a mi alrededor,
ustedes que hicieron un pacto conmigo, ofreciendo un sacrificio».
6 Los cielos proclaman
que Dios es un juez justo. Selah
7 «¡Pueblo mío, Israel, escúchame!
Yo presento mi caso contra ti.
¡Yo soy Dios, tu Dios!
8 No me quejo de las ofrendas
y sacrificios que me ofreces continuamente.
9 No te voy a pedir novillos de tu ganado
ni machos cabríos de tus corrales,
10 ya que soy el dueño de todos los animales del bosque
y del ganado que está en mil montes.
11 Yo conozco a todas las aves que habitan las montañas,
y son míos todos los animales que se mueven en el campo.
12 Si tuviera hambre, no te lo diría,
porque soy dueño del mundo y de todo lo que hay en él.
13 ¿Acaso me alimento yo de carne de toros
o bebo sangre de machos cabríos?
14 Así que haz una ofrenda de agradecimiento[a] a Dios
y cumple lo que le has prometido.
15 Llámame cuando estés angustiado,
que yo te rescataré y tú me honrarás».
16 Pero Dios le dice al perverso:
«¿Con qué derecho citas mis enseñanzas
y hablas de mi pacto,
17 si te molesta cuando te corrijo
y no prestas atención a mis palabras?
18 Haces amistad con ladrones
y te juntas con los que cometen adulterio.
19 Siempre estás diciendo mentiras,
engañando a la gente y haciendo el mal.
20 Hablas mal hasta de tus propios hermanos;
calumnias al hijo de tu misma mamá.
21 Hiciste todo eso y yo no dije nada;
entonces pensaste que yo era como tú.
Pero te voy a reprender
y te acusaré cara a cara.
22 »Entiéndanlo bien,
ustedes que se olvidan de Dios,
no sea que los haga pedazos
y no haya quien los salve.
23 El que hace una ofrenda de agradecimiento me honra;
pero al que vive según mis enseñanzas le daré la salvación».

Psalm 50
A psalm of Asaph.
1 The Mighty One, God, the Lord,(A)
speaks and summons the earth
from the rising of the sun to where it sets.(B)
2 From Zion,(C) perfect in beauty,(D)
God shines forth.(E)
3 Our God comes(F)
and will not be silent;(G)
a fire devours(H) before him,(I)
and around him a tempest(J) rages.
4 He summons the heavens above,
and the earth,(K) that he may judge his people:(L)
5 “Gather to me this consecrated people,(M)
who made a covenant(N) with me by sacrifice.”
6 And the heavens proclaim(O) his righteousness,
for he is a God of justice.[a][b](P)
7 “Listen, my people, and I will speak;
I will testify(Q) against you, Israel:
I am God, your God.(R)
8 I bring no charges(S) against you concerning your sacrifices
or concerning your burnt offerings,(T) which are ever before me.
9 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.
