2From Zion, perfect in beauty, God shines forth.

3Our God comes and will not be silent; a fire devours before him, and around him a tempest rages.

4He summons the heavens above, and the earth, that he may judge his people:

5“Gather to me this consecrated people, who made a covenant with me by sacrifice.”

6And the heavens proclaim his righteousness, for he is a God of justice. With a different word division of the Hebrew; Masoretic Text for God himself is judge The Hebrew has Selah (a word of uncertain meaning) here.

7“Listen, my people, and I will speak; I will testify against you, Israel: I am God, your God.

8I bring no charges against you concerning your sacrifices or concerning your burnt offerings, which are ever before me.
