תהילים 50

1 מִזְמוֹר לְאָסָף אֵל ׀ אֱֽלֹהִים יְֽהֹוָה דִּבֶּר וַיִּקְרָא־אָרֶץ מִמִּזְרַח־שֶׁמֶשׁ עַד־מְבֹאֽוֹ׃

A Psalm of Asaph. God, God, the LORD, hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.

2 מִצִּיּוֹן מִכְלַל־יֹפִי אֱלֹהִים הוֹפִֽיעַ׃

Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined forth.

3 יָבֹא אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְֽאַל־יֶחֱרַשׁ אֵשׁ־לְפָנָיו תֹּאכֵל וּסְבִיבָיו נִשְׂעֲרָה מְאֹֽד׃

Our God cometh, and doth not keep silence; a fire devoureth before Him, and round about Him it stormeth mightily.

4 יִקְרָא אֶל־הַשָּׁמַיִם מֵעָל וְאֶל־הָאָרֶץ לָדִין עַמּֽוֹ׃

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

5 אִסְפוּ־לִי חֲסִידָי כֹּרְתֵי בְרִיתִי עֲלֵי־זָֽבַח׃

'Gather My saints together unto Me; those that have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.'

6 וַיַּגִּידוּ שָׁמַיִם צִדְקוֹ כִּֽי־אֱלֹהִים ׀ שֹׁפֵט הוּא סֶֽלָה׃

And the heavens declare His righteousness; for God, He is judge. (Selah)

7 שִׁמְעָה עַמִּי ׀ וַאֲדַבֵּרָה יִשְׂרָאֵל וְאָעִידָה בָּךְ אֱלֹהִים אֱלֹהֶיךָ אָנֹֽכִי׃

'Hear, O My people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: God, thy God, am I.

8 לֹא עַל־זְבָחֶיךָ אוֹכִיחֶךָ וְעוֹלֹתֶיךָ לְנֶגְדִּי תָמִֽיד׃

I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices; and thy burnt-offerings are continually before Me.

9 לֹא־אֶקַּח מִבֵּיתְךָ פָר מִמִּכְלְאֹתֶיךָ עַתּוּדִֽים׃

I will take no bullock out of thy house, nor he-goats out of thy folds.

10 כִּי־לִי כׇל־חַיְתוֹ־יָעַר בְּהֵמוֹת בְּהַרְרֵי־אָֽלֶף׃

For every beast of the forest is Mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.

11 יָדַעְתִּי כׇּל־עוֹף הָרִים וְזִיז שָׂדַי עִמָּדִֽי׃

I know all the fowls of the mountains; and the wild beasts of the field are Mine.

12 אִם־אֶרְעַב לֹא־אֹמַר לָךְ כִּי־לִי תֵבֵל וּמְלֹאָֽהּ׃

If I were hungry, I would not tell thee; for the world is Mine, and the fulness thereof.

13 הַאוֹכַל בְּשַׂר אַבִּירִים וְדַם עַתּוּדִים אֶשְׁתֶּֽה׃

Do I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?

14 זְבַח לֵאלֹהִים תּוֹדָה וְשַׁלֵּם לְעֶלְיוֹן נְדָרֶֽיךָ׃

Offer unto God the sacrifice of thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the Most High;

15 וּקְרָאֵנִי בְּיוֹם צָרָה אֲחַלֶּצְךָ וּֽתְכַבְּדֵֽנִי׃

And call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver thee, and thou shalt honour Me.'

16 וְלָרָשָׁע ׀ אָמַר אֱלֹהִים מַה־לְּךָ לְסַפֵּר חֻקָּי וַתִּשָּׂא בְרִיתִי עֲלֵי־פִֽיךָ׃

But unto the wicked God saith: 'What hast thou to do to declare My statutes, and that thou hast taken My covenant in thy mouth?

17 וְאַתָּה שָׂנֵאתָ מוּסָר וַתַּשְׁלֵךְ דְּבָרַי אַחֲרֶֽיךָ׃

Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest My words behind thee.

18 אִם־רָאִיתָ גַנָּב וַתִּרֶץ עִמּוֹ וְעִם מְנָאֲפִים חֶלְקֶֽךָ׃

When thou sawest a thief, thou hadst company with him, and with adulterers was thy portion.

19 פִּיךָ שָׁלַחְתָּ בְרָעָה וּלְשׁוֹנְךָ תַּצְמִיד מִרְמָֽה׃

Thou hast let loose thy mouth for evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.

20 תֵּשֵׁב בְּאָחִיךָ תְדַבֵּר בְּבֶֽן־אִמְּךָ תִּתֶּן־דֹּֽפִי׃

Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son.

21 אֵלֶּה עָשִׂיתָ ׀ וְֽהֶחֱרַשְׁתִּי דִּמִּיתָ הֱיֽוֹת־אֶהְיֶה כָמוֹךָ אוֹכִיחֲךָ וְאֶעֶרְכָה לְעֵינֶֽיךָ׃

These things hast thou done, and should I have kept silence? Thou hadst thought that I was altogether such a one as thyself; but I will reprove thee, and set the cause before thine eyes.

22 בִּינוּ־נָא זֹאת שֹׁכְחֵי אֱלוֹהַּ פֶּן־אֶטְרֹף וְאֵין מַצִּֽיל׃

Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear in pieces, and there be none to deliver.

23 זֹבֵחַ תּוֹדָה יְֽכַבְּדָנְנִי וְשָׂם דֶּרֶךְ אַרְאֶנּוּ בְּיֵשַׁע אֱלֹהִֽים׃

Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving honoureth Me; and to him that ordereth his way aright will I show the salvation of God.'
