Psalms 50:14-23

14Make thankfulness your sacrifice to God, and keep the vows you made to the Most High.

15Then call on me when you are in trouble, and I will rescue you, and you will give me glory.”

16But God says to the wicked: “Why bother reciting my decrees and pretending to obey my covenant?

17For you refuse my discipline and treat my words like trash.

18When you see thieves, you approve of them, and you spend your time with adulterers.

19Your mouth is filled with wickedness, and your tongue is full of lies.

20You sit around and slander your brother— your own mother’s son.

21While you did all this, I remained silent, and you thought I didn’t care. But now I will rebuke you, listing all my charges against you.

22Repent, all of you who forget me, or I will tear you apart, and no one will help you.

23But giving thanks is a sacrifice that truly honors me. If you keep to my path, I will reveal to you the salvation of God.”
