Psalm 50:19–21

You use your mouth for evil

and harness your tongue to deceit.

You sit and testify against your brother

and slander your own mother’s son.

When you did these things and I kept silent,

you thought I was exactly like you.

But I now arraign you

and set my accusations before you.

You unleash your mouth for evil

and harness your tongue for deceit.

You sit, maligning your brother,

slandering your mother’s son.

You have done these things, and I kept silent;

you thought I was just like you.

But I will rebuke you

and lay out the case before you.

Your mouth is filled with wickedness,

and your tongue is full of lies.

You sit around and slander your brother—

your own mother’s son.

While you did all this, I remained silent,

and you thought I didn’t care.

But now I will rebuke you,

listing all my charges against you.

You give your mouth free rein for evil,

and you harness your tongue to deceit.

You sit and speak against your brother;

you slander your mother’s son.

These things you have done, and I have been silent;

You imagined that I was just like you.

I will rebuke you and present an argument before your eyes.

Thou givest thy mouth to evil,

And thy tongue frameth deceit.

Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother;

Thou slanderest thine own mother’s son.

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.
