12“If I were hungry I would not tell you,
         For the world is Mine, and all it contains.

13“Shall I eat the flesh of bulls
         Or drink the blood of male goats?

14“Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving
         And pay your vows to the Most High;

15Call upon Me in the day of trouble;
         I shall rescue you, and you will honor Me.”

16But to the wicked God says,
         “What right have you to tell of My statutes
         And to take My covenant in your mouth?

17“For you hate discipline,
         And you cast My words behind you.

18“When you see a thief, you are pleased with him,
         And you associate with adulterers.

19“You let your mouth loose in evil
         And your tongue frames deceit.

20“You sit and speak against your brother;
         You slander your own mother’s son.

21“These things you have done and I kept silence;
         You thought that I was just like you;
         I will reprove you and state the case in order before your eyes.

22“Now consider this, you who forget God,
         Or I will tear you in pieces, and there will be none to deliver.

23“He who offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving honors Me;
         And to him who orders his way aright
         I shall show the salvation of God.”
