Psalms 50:22

50:22 Carefully consider this, you who reject God! ¹ 

Otherwise I will rip you to shreds ² 

and no one will be able to rescue you.

[50:22]  ¹ tn Heb “[you who] forget God.” “Forgetting God” here means forgetting about his commandments and not respecting his moral authority.

[50:22]  ² sn Elsewhere in the psalms this verb is used (within a metaphorical framework) of a lion tearing its prey (see Pss 7:2; 17:12; 22:13).
