Psalms 50: Offer to God the Sacrifice of Thanksgiving

The title says this is A Psalm by Asaph. God, Yahweh, speaks and calls the whole earth from sunrise to sunset. He comes to judge his people. He says he does not need their animal sacrifices, because every animal of the forest is his, and the cattle on a thousand hills. Instead he says, Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving. Call on me in the day of trouble. I will deliver you. He warns the wicked who say his words but hate instruction. The psalm ends, Whoever offers the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifies me.
