1A Psalm of Asaph. The Mighty One, God the Lord, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting. (书22:22; 代上6:39; 代上15:17; 代上16:5; 代上16:7; 代上25:2; 代下29:30; 诗113:3)2Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines forth. (申33:2; 诗48:2; 诗80:1; 诗94:1; 哀2:15)3Our God comes; he does not keep silence;[1] before him is a devouring fire, around him a mighty tempest. (出19:16; 利10:2; 民16:35; 诗21:9; 诗97:3; 但7:10)4He calls to the heavens above and to the earth, that he may judge his people: (申4:26; 申31:28; 申32:1; 赛1:2; 弥6:1)5“Gather to me my faithful ones, who made a covenant with me by sacrifice!” (创15:9; 出24:7)6The heavens declare his righteousness, for God himself is judge! (诗58:11; 诗75:7; 诗89:5; 诗97:6; 启16:5; 启16:7; 启19:2)7“Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, I will testify against you. I am God, your God. (出20:2; 诗49:1; 诗81:8)8Not for your sacrifices do I rebuke you; your burnt offerings are continually before me. (诗40:6)9I will not accept a bull from your house or goats from your folds.10For every beast of the forest is mine, the cattle on a thousand hills.11I know all the birds of the hills, and all that moves in the field is mine. (太10:29)12“If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world and its fullness are mine. (诗24:1)13Do I eat the flesh of bulls or drink the blood of goats?14Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving,[2] and perform your vows to the Most High, (民30:2; 申23:21; 伯22:27; 诗22:25; 诗27:6; 诗50:23; 诗61:8; 诗65:1; 诗69:30; 诗76:11; 诗107:22; 诗116:14; 诗116:18; 传5:4; 何14:2; 羅12:1; 來13:15)15and call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me.” (诗22:23; 诗50:23; 诗81:7; 诗91:15; 诗107:6; 亚13:9)16But to the wicked God says: “What right have you to recite my statutes or take my covenant on your lips?17For you hate discipline, and you cast my words behind you. (王上14:9; 尼9:26; 羅2:21)18If you see a thief, you are pleased with him, and you keep company with adulterers. (羅1:32; 提前5:22)19“You give your mouth free rein for evil, and your tongue frames deceit. (诗52:2)20You sit and speak against your brother; you slander your own mother’s son.21These things you have done, and I have been silent; you thought that I[3] was one like yourself. But now I rebuke you and lay the charge before you. (王下19:4; 伯13:18; 伯23:4; 诗90:8; 传8:11; 赛57:11)22“Mark this, then, you who forget God, lest I tear you apart, and there be none to deliver! (诗7:2; 诗9:17)23The one who offers thanksgiving as his sacrifice glorifies me; to one who orders his way rightly I will show the salvation of God!” (诗50:14; 诗91:16; 加6:16)
