God the Righteous Judge

A Psalm of Asaph.

1 The aMighty One, God the Lord,
Has spoken and called the earth
From the rising of the sun to its going down. 
2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty,
aGod will shine forth. 
3 Our God shall come, and shall not keep silent;
aA fire shall devour before Him,
And it shall be very tempestuous all around Him. 
4 aHe shall call to the heavens from above,
And to the earth, that He may judge His people: 
5 “Gather aMy saints together to Me,
bThose who have1 made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.” 
6 Let the aheavens declare His righteousness,
For bGod Himself is Judge. Selah 
7 “Hear, O My people, and I will speak,
O Israel, and I will testify against you;
aI am God, your God! 
8 aI will not1 rebuke you bfor your sacrifices
Or your burnt offerings,
Which are continually before Me.

Psalms 50:1-4

In the grandeur and solemnity of a divine judgment, God is introduced as instructing men in the nature of true worship, exposing hypocrisy, warning the wicked, and encouraging the pious. (Psa. 50:1-23)

The description of this majestic appearance of God resembles that of His giving the law (compare Exodus 19:16; Exodus 20:18; Deuteronomy 32:1).
