Psalms 50:14-23

14Offer to God thanksgiving, And pay your vows to the Most High.

15Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.”

16But to the wicked God says: “What right have you to declare My statutes, Or take My covenant in your mouth,

17Seeing you hate instruction And cast My words behind you?

18When you saw a thief, you consented with him, And have been a partaker 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 altogether like you; But I will rebuke you, And set them in order before your eyes.

22“Now consider this, you who forget God, Lest I tear you in pieces, And there be none to deliver:

23Whoever offers praise glorifies Me; And to him who orders his conduct aright I will show the salvation of God.”
