Psalms

Psalm 50:14–16

¹⁴Sacrifice a thank offering to God,

and fulfill your vows to the Most High.

¹⁵Call upon Me in the day of trouble;

I will deliver you, and you will honor Me.”

¹⁶To the wicked, however, God says,

“What right have you to recite My statutes

and to bear My covenant on your lips?
