And then, only the 2nd Cantor's side ei. the Quire chants the entire next verse (omitting the intonation notes), the two sides alternating the verses thereafter:

From the rising of the Sun and unto the set-ting ,t. there:"'Of; :I< out of Syon is the

magnificence t ijf His co,me-li-ness. -e ,

God shall come vis- t i-bly; * yell, Our God, and shall t not keepsl-Ience.

Fire shall blaze be- t fore Hi m, * and round about Him shall there be a

t might-y tern-pest. ' ,

He shall summon Heav-en t_a-bove * and the Earth, that He may t judge His pe6-pJe. Gather together unto Him His ho- t Iy ones, * who have established His

Covenant upon t sic-ri-fi-ces., , ,

And the heavens shall de-clare His righ- ,t. teous-ness--> * t for God is judge. Hear, 0 my people, and I will speak un-to thee, t 0 Isra-el; and I will testi-fy

a- t gainst thee: * "I t am God, Thy God." ,

Not for sacrifices will I re- t prove J;hee; * nay, thy whole-burnt offerings are

continual- t Iy be-fore Me.

I will not welcome bullocks out of t thy house, * nor he-goats t out of thy flocks. For Mine are ill the beasts of t the field, * cattle 'on the moun- t tains, and ox-en. I know ill the fowls of t the air, * and with Me is the t beaut-y of the field.

If I hunger, not to thee will I t tell it; * for Mine is the world, and the t fiil-qess !hfre-Of. Shall I eit of the flesh t of ,bulls; * or Jhe blood of goats, J. shall I drink it? Sacrifice unto God a sac-ri-fice t of praise, * and pay unto the t Most High thy vows. And call upon Me in the day of thine af- t fflc-tldn * and I will deliver thee,

and thou shalt t glor-if-y Me.

But unto the sinner q_od hath said: t "Why declarest thou My t sta-tutes * and

takest up My Cov- t en-ant in thy mouth? ,

"Thou hast hi-ted in- t struc-tlon, * and hast cast out My t words be-hind thee.
