Psa 50:3 May our God come and not keep silence; Fire devours before Him, And it is very tempestuous around Him. Psa 50:4 He summons the heavens above, And the earth, to judge His people: Psa 50:5 "Gather My godly ones to Me, Those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice." Psa 50:6 And the heavens declare His righteousness, For God Himself is judge. Selah. Psa 50:7 "Hear, O My people, and I will speak; O Israel, I will testify against you; I am God, your God. Psa 50:8 "I do not reprove you for your sacrifices, And your burnt offerings are continually before Me. Psa 50:9 "I shall take no young bull out of your house Nor male goats out of your folds. Psa 50:10 "For every beast of the forest is Mine, The cattle on a thousand hills. Psa 50:11 "I know every bird of the mountains, And everything that moves in the field is Mine. Psa 50:12 "If I were hungry I would not tell you, For the world is Mine, and all it contains. Psa 50:13 "Shall I eat the flesh of bulls Or drink the blood of male goats? Psa 50:14 "Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving And pay your vows to the Most High; Psa 50:15 Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I shall rescue you, and you will honor Me."

Psa 50:18 "When you see a thief, you are pleased with him, And you associate with adulterers. Psa 50:19 "You let your mouth loose in evil And your tongue frames deceit. Psa 50:20 "You sit and speak against your brother; You slander your own mother's son. Psa 50:21 "These things you have done and I kept silence; You thought that I was just like you; I will reprove you and state the case in order before your eyes. Psa 50:22 "Now consider this, you who forget God, Or I will tear you in pieces, and there will be none to deliver. Psa 50:23 "He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors Me; And to him who orders his way aright I shall show the salvation of God." -------- Psa 53:1 The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, and have committed abominable injustice; There is no one who does good. Psa 53:2 God has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men To see if there is anyone who understands, Who seeks after God. Psa 53:3 Every one of them has turned aside; together they have become corrupt; There is no one who does good, not even one. Psa 53:4 Have the workers of wickedness no knowledge, Who eat up My people as though they ate bread And have not called upon God? Psa 53:5 There they were in great fear where no fear had been; For God scattered the bones of him who encamped against you; You put them to shame, because God had rejected them. Psa 53:6 Oh, that the salvation of Israel would come out of Zion! When God restores His captive people, Let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad. -------- Psa 60:1 O God, You have rejected us. You have broken us; You have been angry; O, restore us. Psa 60:2 You have made the land quake, You have split it open; Heal its breaches, for it totters. Psa 60:3 You have made Your people experience hardship; You have given us wine to drink that makes us stagger. Psa 60:4 You have given a banner to those who fear You, That it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah. Psa 60:5 That Your beloved may be delivered, Save with Your right hand, and answer us! Psa 60:6 God has spoken in His holiness: "I will exult, I will portion out Shechem and measure out the valley of Succoth. Psa 60:7 "Gilead is Mine, and Manasseh is Mine; Ephraim also is the helmet of My head; Judah is My scepter. Psa 60:8 "Moab is My washbowl; Over Edom I shall throw My shoe; Shout loud, O Philistia, because of Me!" Psa 60:9 Who will bring me into the besieged city? Who will lead me to Edom? Psa 60:10 Have not You Yourself, O God, rejected us? And will You not go forth with our armies, O God? Psa 60:11 O give us help against the adversary, For deliverance by man is in vain. Psa 60:12 Through God we shall do valiantly, And it is He who will tread down our adversaries. -------- Psa 75:1 We give thanks to You, O God, we give thanks, For Your name is near; Men declare Your wondrous works. Psa 75:2 "When I select an appointed time, It is I who judge with equity. Psa 75:3 "The earth and all who dwell in it melt; It is I who have firmly set its pillars. Selah. Psa 75:4 "I said to the boastful, 'Do not boast, 'And to the wicked, 'Do not lift up the horn; Psa 75:5 Do not lift up your horn on high, Do not speak with insolent pride.'" Psa 75:6 For not from the east, nor from the west, Nor from the desert comes exaltation; Psa 75:7 But God is the Judge; He puts down one and exalts another. Psa 75:8 For a cup is in the hand of the Lord, and the wine foams; It is well mixed, and He pours out of this; Surely all the wicked of the earth must drain and drink down its dregs. Psa 75:9 But as for me, I will declare it forever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob. Psa 75:10 And all the horns of the wicked He will cut off, But the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.
