Psalm
R. To the upright I will show the saving power of God.
Not for your sacrifices do I rebuke you; your burnt offerings are continually before me. I will not accept a bull from your house, or goats from your folds. R.
What right have you to recite my statutes, or take my covenant on your lips? For you hate discipline, and you cast my words behind you. R.
These things you have done and I have been silent; you thought that I was one just like yourself. But now I rebuke you, and lay the charge before you. R.
Those who bring thanksgiving as their sacrifice honour me; to those who go the right way I will show the salvation of God. R.
