1The mighty God, even the Lord, hath spoken, and called the earth
2Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty,
3Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence:
4He shall call to the heavens from above,
5Gather my saints together unto me;
6And the heavens shall declare his righteousness:
7Hear, O my people, and I will speak;
8I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices
9I will take no bullock out of thy house,
10For every beast of the forest is mine,
11I know all the fowls of the mountains:
12If I were hungry, I would not tell thee:
13Will I eat the flesh of bulls,
14Offer unto God thanksgiving;
15And call upon me in the day of trouble:
16But unto the wicked God saith,
17Seeing thou hatest instruction,
18When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him,
19Thou givest thy mouth to evil,
20Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother;
21These things hast thou done, and I kept silence;
22Now consider this, ye that forget God,
23Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me:
