Psalms 50:8-18

DouayRheims(i) 8 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices: and thy burnt offerings are always in my sight. 9 I will not take calves out of thy house: nor he goats out of thy flocks. 10 For all the beasts of the woods are mine: the cattle on the hills, and the oxen. 11 I know all the fowls of the air: and with me is the beauty of the field. 12 If I should be hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof. 13 Shall I eat the flesh of bullocks? or shall I drink the blood of goats? 14 Offer to God the sacrifice of praise: and pay thy vows to the most High. 15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me. 16 But to the sinner God hath said: Why dost thou declare my justices, and take my covenant in thy mouth? 17 Seeing thou hast hated discipline: and hast cast my words behind thee. 18 If thou didst see a thief thou didst run with him: and with adulterers thou hast been a partaker.
