Context of Psalms 50:3
1God, even God, the LORD, hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof. 2Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined forth. Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him. 4He shall call to the heavens above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people: 5Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.
