Psalms 50:7-15

7“Listen, my people, and I will speak. Listen, Israel, and I will testify against you: I am God, your God!

8I am not criticizing you for your sacrifices or burnt offerings, which are always in front of me.

9⌞But⌟ I will not accept ⌞another⌟ young bull from your household or a single male goat from your pens.

10Every creature in the forest, ⌞even⌟ the cattle on a thousand hills, is mine.

11I know every bird in the mountains. Everything that moves in the fields is mine.

12If I were hungry, I would not tell you, because the world and all that it contains are mine.

13Do I eat the meat of bulls or drink the blood of goats?

14Bring ⌞your⌟ thanks to God as a sacrifice, and keep your vows to the Most High.

15Call on me in times of trouble. I will rescue you, and you will honor me.”
