Psalms 50:12

10 for every beast of the forest is Mine— the cattle on a thousand hills.

11 I know every bird in the mountains, and the creatures of the field are Mine.

If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world is Mine, and the fullness thereof.

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

14 Sacrifice a thank offering to God, and fulfill your vows to the Most High.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
