Psalms 50:23
21 You have done these things, and I kept silent; you thought I was just like you. But now I rebuke you and accuse you to your face.
22 Now consider this, you who forget God, lest I tear you to pieces, with no one to rescue you:
He who sacrifices a thank offering honors Me, and to him who rights his way, I will show the salvation of God.”
