1.My people Isr'el hear,
speak will I from on high,
Against thee I will testify;
God, ev'n thy God, am I.

2.I for thy sacrifice
no blame will on thee lay,
Nor for burnt-off'rings, which to me
thou offer'dst ev'ry day.

3.I'll take no calf nor goats
from house or fold of thine:
For beasts of forests, cattle all
on thousand hills, are mine.

4.The fowls on mountains high
are all to me well known;
Wild beasts which in the fields do lie,
ev'n they are all mine own.

5.Then, if I hungry were,
I would not tell it thee;
Because the world, and fullness all
thereof, belongs to me.

6.Will I eat flesh of bulls?
or goats' blood drink will I?
Thanks offer thou to God, and pay
thy vows to the most High.

7.And call upon me when
in trouble thou shalt cry;
I will deliver thee, and thou
my name shalt glorify.
