Psalm 50:7-15

Christian Standard Bible

⁷ “Listen, my people, and I will speak;
I will testify against you, Israel.
I am God, your God.^(A)
8 I do not rebuke you for your sacrifices
or for your burnt offerings,
which are continually before me.^(B)
9 I will not take a bull from your household
or male goats from your pens,^(C)
10 for every animal of the forest is mine,
the cattle on a thousand hills.
¹¹ I know every bird of the mountains,
and the creatures of the field are mine.^(D)
12 If I were hungry, I would not tell you,
for the world and everything in it is mine.^(E)
13 Do I eat the flesh of bulls
or drink the blood of goats?^(F)
14 Offer a thanksgiving sacrifice to God,^(G)
and pay your vows to the Most High.^(H)
15 Call on me in a day of trouble;
I will rescue you, and you will honor me.”^(I)
