Vers 1

The mighty God, the Lord,
hath spoken, and did call
The earth, from rising of the sun,
to where he hath his fall.

Vers 2

From out of Sion hill,
which of excellency
And beauty the perfection is,
God shined gloriously.

Vers 3

Our God shall surely come,
keep silence shall not he:
Before him fire shall waste, great storms
shall round about him be.

Vers 4

Unto the heavens clear
he from above shall call,
And to the earth likewise, that he
may judge his people all.

Vers 5

Together let my saints
unto me gather’d be,
Those that by sacrifice have made
a covenant with me.

Vers 6

And then the heavens shall
his righteousness declare:
Because the Lord himself is he
by whom men judged are.

Vers 7

My people Isr’el hear,
speak will I from on high,
Against thee I will testify;
God, ev’n thy God, am I.

Vers 8

I for thy sacrifice
no blame will on thee lay,
Nor for burnt-off ’rings, which to me
thou offer’dst ev’ry day.

Vers 9

I’ll take no calf nor goats
from house or fold of thine:
For beasts of forests, cattle all
on thousand hills, are mine.

Vers 10

The fowls on mountains high
are all to me well known;
Wild beasts which in the fields do lie,
ev’n they are all mine own.

Vers 11

Then, if I hungry were,
I would not tell it thee;
Because the world, and fulness all
thereof, belongs to me.

Vers 12

Will I eat flesh of bulls?
or goats’ blood drink will I?
Thanks offer thou to God, and pay
thy vows to the most High.

Vers 13

And call upon me when
in trouble thou shalt be;
I will deliver thee, and thou
my name shalt glorify.

Vers 14

But to the wicked man
God saith, My laws and truth
Should’st thou declare? how dar’st thou take
my cov’nant in thy mouth?

Vers 15

Sith thou instruction hat’st,
which should thy ways direct;
And sith my words behind thy back
thou cast’st, and dost reject.

Vers 16

When thou a thief didst see,
with him thou didst consent;
And with the vile adulterers
partaker on thou went.

Vers 17

Thou giv’st thy mouth to ill,
thy tongue deceit doth frame;
Thou sitt’st, and ’gainst thy brother speak’st,
thy mother’s son dost shame.

Vers 18

Because I silence kept,
while thou these things hast wrought;
That I was altogether like
thyself, hath been thy thought;

Vers 19

Yet I will thee reprove,
and set before thine eyes,
In order ranked, thy misdeeds
and thine iniquities.

Vers 20

Now, ye that God forget,
this carefully consider;
Lest I in pieces tear you all,
and none can you deliver.

Vers 21

Whoso doth offer praise
me glorifies; and I
Will shew him God’s salvation,
that orders right his way.
