Psalms 50:14
Compare all
12 “If I were hungry, I would not tell you;
aFor the world is Mine, and all its fullness. 
13 aWill I eat the flesh of bulls,
Or drink the blood of goats? 
14 aOffer to God thanksgiving,
And bpay your vows to the Most High. 
15 aCall upon Me in the day of trouble;
I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.” 
16 But to the wicked God says:
“What right have you to declare My statutes,
Or take My covenant in your mouth,
17 aSeeing you hate instruction
And cast My words behind you? 
18 When you saw a thief, you aconsented with him,
And have been a bpartaker with adulterers. 
19 You give your mouth to evil,
And ayour tongue frames deceit. 
20 You sit and speak against your brother;
You slander your own mother’s son.
21 These things you have done, and I kept silent;
aYou thought that I was altogether like you;
But I will rebuke you,
And bset them in order before your eyes. 
22 “Now consider this, you who aforget God,
Lest I tear you in pieces,
And there be none to deliver: 
23 Whoever offers praise glorifies Me;
And ato him who orders his conduct aright
I will show the salvation of God.”

Psalms 50:8-15

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 (Psalms 50:9-13)—that is, to bring, with the external symbolical service, the homage of the heart, and faith, penitence, and love. To this is added an invitation to seek, and a promise to afford, all needed help in trouble.
