Context of Psalms 50:14
12If I were hungry I would not tell you, For the world is Mine, and all it contains. 13Shall I eat the flesh of bulls Or drink the blood of male goats? Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving And pay your vows to the Most High; 15Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I shall rescue you, and you will honor Me.” 16But to the wicked God says, “What right have you to tell of My statutes And to take My covenant in your mouth?

Commentaries on Psalms 50:14
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 14Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the Most High - זבח zebach, "sacrifice unto God, אלהים Elohim, the תודה todah, thank-offering," which was the same as the sin-offering, viz. a bullock, or a ram, without blemish; only there were, in addition, "unleavened cakes mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil; and cakes of fine flour mingled with oil and fried," Leviticus 7:12. And pay thy vows - נדריך nedareycha, "thy…Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 14Offer unto God thanksgiving - The word rendered “offer” in this place - זבח zâbach - means properly “sacrifice.” So it is rendered by the Septuagint, ͂ thuson - and by the Vulgate, “immola.” The word is used, doubtless, with design - to show what was the “kind” of sacrifice with which God would be pleased, and which he would approve.

- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 7-15Verses 7-15 To obey is better than sacrifice, and to love God and our neighbour better than all burnt-offerings. We are here warned not to rest in these performances. And let us beware of resting in any form. God demands the heart, and how can human inventions please him, when repentance, faith, and holiness are neglected? In the day of distress we must apply to the Lord by fervent prayer. Our troubles, though we see them coming from God's hand, must…Read the comment
- Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 14Thankfulness involves recognizing and appreciating God's blessings beyond personal gain (see Psalms 51:15–17; 54:6). True sacrifice means dedicating oneself to honor God (Psalm 50:23; Romans 12:1–2).Read the comment
- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 8-158-15. However scrupulous in external worship, it was offered as if they conferred an obligation in giving God His own, and with a degrading view of Him as needing it [Psa 50:9-13]. Reproving them for such foolish and blasphemous notions, He teaches them to offer, or literally, "sacrifice," thanksgiving, and pay, or perform, their vows--that is, to bring, with the external symbolical service, the homage of the heart, and faith, penitence, and love. To this…Read the comment
