Psalm 50:16-23 American Standard Version (ASV)

16. But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, And that thou hast taken my covenant in thy mouth,

17. Seeing thou hatest instruction, And castest my words behind thee?

18. When thou sawest a thief, thou consentedst with him, And hast been partaker with adulterers.

19. Thou givest thy mouth to evil, And thy tongue frameth deceit.

20. Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; Thou slanderest thine own mother’s son.

21. These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; Thou thoughtest that I was altogether such a one as thyself: But I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes.

22. Now consider this, ye that forget God, Lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver:

23. Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifieth me; And to him that ordereth his way aright Will I show the salvation of God.
