Psalm 49:6–8

6 And the heavens proclaim his righteousness,

for he is a God of justice.

7 “Listen, my people, and I will speak;

I will testify against you, Israel:

I am God, your God.

8 I bring no charges against you concerning your sacrifices

or concerning your burnt offerings, which are ever before me.

6 The heavens declare his righteousness,

for God himself is judge! Selah

7 “Hear, O my people, and I will speak;

O Israel, I will testify against you.

I am God, your God.

8 Not for your sacrifices do I rebuke you;

your burnt offerings are continually before me.

6 And the heavens shall declare his righteousness:

For God is judge himself. Selah.

7 Hear, O my people, and I will speak;

O Israel, and I will testify against thee:

I am God, even thy God.

8 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices

Or thy burnt offerings, to have been continually before me.

6 Then let the heavens proclaim his justice,

for God himself will be the judge.

For God Himself is Judge.
