Context of Psalms 50:5
3Our God shall come, and shall not keep silent; A fire shall devour before Him, And it shall be very tempestuous all around Him. 4He shall call to the heavens from above, And to the earth, that He may judge His people: “Gather My saints together to Me, Those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.” 6Let the heavens declare His righteousness, For God Himself is Judge. Selah 7“Hear, O My people, and I will speak, O Israel, and I will testify against you; I am God, your God!
