Psalms 50:14-23

14Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving And pay your vows to the Most High;

15Call on Me in the day of trouble; I will rescue you, and you shall honor and glorify Me.”

16But to the wicked God says: “What right have you to recite My statutes Or to take My covenant on your lips?

17For you hate instruction and discipline And cast My words behind you [discarding them].

18When you see a thief, you are pleased with him and condone his behavior, And you associate with adulterers.

19You give your mouth to evil And your tongue frames deceit.

20You sit and speak against your brother; You slander your own mother’s son.

21These things you have done and I kept silent; You thought that I was just like you. Now I will reprimand and denounce you and state the case in order before your eyes.

22“Now consider this, you who forget God, Or I will tear you in pieces, and there will be no one to rescue [you].

23He who offers a sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving honors Me; And to him who orders his way rightly [who follows the way that I show him], I shall show the salvation of God.”
