## Psalms 50:20-21 in Context (Verses 17–23 KJV)
 
 [17 ](/kjv/psalms/50/17) Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behind thee.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/psalms/50/18) When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers.*
 
 [19 ](/kjv/psalms/50/19) Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit.*
 
 [20 ](/kjv/psalms/50/20) Thou sittest *and* speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother’s son.
 
 [21 ](/kjv/psalms/50/21) These *things* hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether *such an one* as thyself: *but* I will reprove thee, and set *them* in order before thine eyes.
 
 [22 ](/kjv/psalms/50/22) Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear *you* in pieces, and *there be* none to deliver.
 
 [23 ](/kjv/psalms/50/23) Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth *his* conversation *aright* will I shew the salvation of God.*
 
[Psalms 49](/kjv/psalms/49) [Psalms 51](/kjv/psalms/51)
