The Condemnation of the Wicked

Psalms 50:16-21

But to the wicked God says, “What right do you have to declare my statutes, that you have taken my covenant on your lips,

since you hate instruction, and throw my words behind you?

When you saw a thief, you consented with him, and have participated with adulterers.

“You give your mouth to evil. Your tongue frames deceit.

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

You have done these things, and I kept silent. You thought that I was just like you. I will rebuke you, and accuse you in front of your eyes.
