Psalms 50:20 Context
18When thou sawest a thiefe, then thou consentedst with him, and hast bene partaker with adulterers. 19Thou giuest thy mouth to euill, and thy tongue frameth deceit. 20Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine owne mothers sonne. 21These things hast thou done, and I kept silence: thou thoughtest that I was altogether such a one as thy selfe: but I will reproue thee, and set them in order before thine eyes. 22Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I teare you in pieces, and there be none to deliuer.
