Psalm 49:1-8 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

1. A Psalm of Asaph. The God of gods, the Lord has spoken, and he has called the earth, from the rising of the sun even to its setting,

2. from Zion, the brilliance of his beauty.

3. God will arrive manifestly. Our God also will not keep silence. A fire will flare up in his sight, and a mighty tempest will surround him.

4. He will call to heaven from above, and to the earth, to discern his people.

5. Gather his holy ones to him, you who order his covenant above sacrifices.

6. And the heavens will announce his justice. For God is the judge.

7. Listen, my people, and I will speak. Listen, Israel, and I will testify for you. I am God, your God.

8. I will not reprove you for your sacrifices. Moreover, your holocausts are ever in my sight.
