Psalms [Praises] 50:17-23

¹⁷since you hate instruction, and throw my words behind you?

¹⁸When you saw a thief, you consented with him, and have participated with adulterers.

¹⁹“You give your mouth to evil. Your tongue frames deceit.

²⁰You sit and speak against your brother. You slander your own mother’s son.

²¹You have done these things, and I kept silent. You thought that I was just like you. I will rebuke you, and accuse you in front of your eyes.

²²“Now consider this, you who forget God, lest I tear you into pieces, and there be no one to deliver.

²³Whoever offers the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifies me, and prepares his way so that I will show God’s yesha' ·salvation· to him.”
