Psalms 50:10-17

¹⁰for I own all the animals of the forest, and the cattle on a thousand hills belong to me.

¹¹I know every bird of the mountains; all living things in the fields are mine.

¹²If I were hungry, I wouldn't tell you, for the earth and everything in it are mine.

¹³Do I eat the flesh of bulls or drink the blood of goats?

¹⁴Give an offering of thanks to God; keep the promises you made to the Most High,

¹⁵and call on me when you're in trouble. I will rescue you, and you will thank me.”

¹⁶But to the wicked God says, “What's the point of mechanically repeating my laws or making empty promises about obeying the agreement?

¹⁷You hate my discipline, and you toss my words away, leaving them behind you.
