The Condemnation of the Wicked

Psalms 50:16-21

To the wicked, however, God says, “What right have you to recite My statutes and to bear My covenant on your lips?

For you hate My instruction and cast My words behind you.

When you see a thief, you befriend him, and throw in your lot with adulterers.

You unleash your mouth for evil and unharness your tongue for deceit.

You sit and malign your brother; you slander your own mother’s son.

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.
