Psalms 50:15-23 NIVUK
and call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honour me.’ But to the wicked person, God says: ‘What right have you to recite my laws or take my covenant on your lips? You hate my instruction and cast my words behind you. When you see a thief, you join with him; you throw in your lot with adulterers. You use your mouth for evil and harness your tongue to deceit. You sit and testify against your brother and slander your own mother’s son. When you did these things and I kept silent, you thought I was exactly like you. But I now arraign you and set my accusations before you. ‘Consider this, you who forget God, or I will tear you to pieces, with no-one to rescue you: those who sacrifice thank-offerings honour me, and to the blameless I will show my salvation.’
