He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors me.
To him who orders his life aright, I will show the salvation of God.
The Mighty One, God the Lord, has spoken, And summoned the earth from the rising of
the sun to its setting.
Out of sight and perfection a beauty God has shown for us.
May our God come and not keep silence.
Fire devours before him, and a storm swirls around him.
He summons the heavens above and the earth for judgment.
Gather my faithful to me who have made a covenant.
By sacrifice the heavens declare his right, for God himself is judge.
He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors me.
To him who orders his life aright, I will show the salvation of God.
Hear, O my people, and I will speak, O Israel.
I testify against you, for I am God your God.
I don't reprove all your sacrifice or your constant offerings before me.
I'll take no bull from your house or a goat out of your herds.
All bees of the forest are mine, the cattle on a thousand hills.
I know every bird in the mountains, all that moves in the field is mine.
If I were hungry I would not tell you, since all the world is mine.
Shall I eat the flesh of bulls or do I drink the blood of goats?
He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors me.
To him who orders his life aright, I will show the salvation of God.
Offer to God a sacrifice of praise and pay your vows to the Most High.
Call in the day of trouble, I will save and you'll honor me.
But to the wicked God says, what right have you to speak my words, since you hate
correction and cast my words behind you?
When you see a thief you are pleased, you reward adulterers.
You loosen your mouth for evil and your tongue for lying.
You sit and speak of your brother, slandering your mother's son.
While I kept silence you thought that maybe I was just like you.
But I will reprove and declare the case I'll set before your eyes.
You who forget, God consider, lest I tear you with none to save.
He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors me.
To him who orders his life aright, I will show the salvation of God.
