Psalms 50:14
12 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?
Sacrifice a thank offering to God, and fulfill your vows to the Most High.
15 Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor Me.”
16 To the wicked, however, God says, “What right have you to recite My statutes and to bear My covenant on your lips?
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
