Psalms 50:5-16
-
5 Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.
-
6 And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge himself. Selah.
-
7 Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify against thee: I am God, even thy God.
-
8 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt offerings, to have been continually before me.
-
9 I will take no bullock out of thy house, nor he goats out of thy folds.
-
10 For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.
-
11 I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are mine.
-
12 If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.
-
13 Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
-
14 Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High:
-
15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.
-
16 But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth?
