Context of Psalms 50:15
13Do I eat the flesh of bulls or drink the blood of goats? 14Offer God a sacrifice of thank offerings, then fulfill your vows to Elyon. Call upon Me in the day of trouble. When I rescue you, you will honor Me.” 16But to the wicked, God says: “What are you doing, reciting My laws and taking My covenant in your mouth? 17For you hate discipline, and you cast My words behind you.

- 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.
