1 The Maiestie of God in the Church. 5 His order to gather Saints. 7 The pleasure of God is not in Ceremonies, 14 but in sinceritie of Obedience.

¶ A Psalme of Asaph.

L ¶ The mightie God, euen the LORD hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sunne, vnto the going downe thereof. 2 Out of Sion the perfection of beautie, God hath shined. 3 Our God shall come, and shall not keepe silence: a fire shall deuoure before him, and it shalbe very tempestuous round about him. 4 He shall call to the heauens from aboue, and to the earth, that hee may iudge his people. 5 Gather my Saints together vnto mee: those that haue made a couenant with me, by sacrifice. 6 And the heauens shall declare his righteousnes; for God is iudge himselfe. Selah. 7 Heare, O my people, and I will speake, O Israel, and I will testifie against thee; I am God, euen thy God. 8 I will not reproue thee for thy sacrifices, or thy burnt offerings, to haue bene continually before me. 9 I will take no bullocke out of thy house, nor hee goates out of thy folds. 10 For euery beast of the forrest is mine, and the cattell vpon a thousand hilles. 11 [fn]I know all the foules of the mountaines: and the wild beasts of the field are mine. 12 [fn][fn]If I were hungry, I would not tell thee, for the world is mine, and the fulnesse thereof. 13 Will I eate the flesh of bulles, or drinke the blood of goats? 14 Offer vnto God thankesgiuing, and pay thy vowes vnto the most high. 15 And call vpon mee in the day of trouble; I will deliuer thee, and thou shalt glorifie me. 16 But vnto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to doe, to declare my Statutes, or that thou shouldest take my Couenant in thy mouth? 17 [fn]Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behinde thee. 18 [fn]When thou sawest a thiefe, then thou consentedst with him, and hast bene partaker with adulterers. 19 [fn]Thou giuest thy mouth to euill, and thy tongue frameth deceit. 20 Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine owne mothers sonne. 21 These things hast thou done, and I kept silence: thou thoughtest that I was altogether such a one as thy selfe: but I will reproue thee, and set them in order before thine eyes. 22 Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I teare you in pieces, and there be none to deliuer. 23 [fn]Who so offereth praise, glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his conuersation aright, will I shew the saluation of God.
