1 Salmo de Asaf. El Dios de dioses, el Señor, ha convocado a toda la humanidad, desde el oriente hasta el occidente. 2 Dios resplandece desde Sion, la ciudad bella y perfecta. 3 Nuestro Dios, con rugir de trueno se acerca; todo lo destruye con fuego a su paso, y en torno suyo ruge la tormenta. 4 El cielo y la tierra serán sus testigos cuando él juzgue a su pueblo: 5 «Reúnan a mi pueblo: a los que han hecho un pacto conmigo mediante un sacrificio». 6 El cielo proclama la justicia divina, porque Dios mismo es el juez. 7 ¡Escucha, pueblo mío, que voy a hablar! Estas son mis acusaciones en contra tuya, Israel. ¡Porque yo soy Dios, el Dios tuyo! 8 No tengo queja alguna por los sacrificios o las ofrendas quemadas que traes a mi altar, pues los traes con regularidad. 9 Pero no son los toros de tu establo ni las cabras de tu aprisco lo que quiero; 10 pues todos los animales del bosque son míos, y del ganado de mil colinas yo soy dueño. 11 Cada ave de los montes y todos los animales del campo me pertenecen. 12 Si tuviera hambre, no te lo diría; porque mío es el mundo y todo lo que en él hay. 13 No necesito tus toros de sacrificios ni la sangre de tus machos cabríos. 14 Lo que quiero de ti es verdadera gratitud a Dios; quiero que cumplas tus promesas al Altísimo. 15 Confía en mí en tus tribulaciones para que yo te libre y puedas darme la gloria. 16 Pero al malvado dice Dios: No recites más las leyes mías y deja de fingir que me obedeces, 17 pues has rechazado mi disciplina, y menospreciado mis leyes. 18 Ves a un ladrón, y le ayudas y pasas el tiempo en compañía de adúlteros. 19 Tu boca se llena de perversidades y tu lengua de mentiras. 20 Calumnias a tu hermano, al hijo de tu misma madre. 21 Mientras hiciste todo esto, yo guardé silencio; pensaste que nada me importaba, pero ahora llegó el momento de reprenderte, y plantearé la lista de acusaciones contra ti. 22 Arrepiéntanse todos los que se han olvidado de Dios, antes que los despedace y nadie pueda ayudarlos. 23 Pero el que me ofrenda su gratitud, me honra. Los que andan por mis sendas recibirán salvación del Señor.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
"Hear ye these things, all ye nations" (ver. 1). Not then you only who are here. For of what power is our voice so to cry out, as that all nations may hear?

Of whom He again speaks: "The God of gods, the Lord hath spoken, and hath called the earth." Who is meant by God?
And regarding the name itself, if they see fit to call such blessed and immortal creatures gods, this need not give rise to any serious discussion between us, since in our own Scriptures we read, "The God of gods, the Lord hath spoken;" and again, "Confess to the God of gods;" and again, "He is a great King above all …

And this He saith unto them in irony; as when He said, "Behold, Adam is become as one of us;" and again, "If I were hungry, I would not tell thee." For that no man on earth was righteous, Paul declared, saying, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." And by this too the others …

… comes, not to be judged again, but to judge them who judged Him; He who before held His peace when judged, shall remind the transgressors who did those daring deeds at the Cross, and shall say, These things hast thou done, and I kept silence.
