Contextual Overview

⁷ God says, "My people, listen to me; Israel, I will testify against you. I am God, your God. ⁸ I do not scold you for your sacrifices. You always bring me your burnt offerings. ⁹ But I do not need bulls from your stalls or goats from your pens, ¹⁰ because every animal of the forest is already mine. The cattle on a thousand hills are mine. ¹¹ I know every bird on the mountains, and every living thing in the fields is mine. ¹² If I were hungry, I would not tell you, because the earth and everything in it are mine. ¹³ I don't eat the meat of bulls or drink the blood of goats. ¹⁴ Give an offering to show thanks to God. Give God Most High what you have promised. ¹⁵ Call to me in times of trouble. I will save you, and you will honor me."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

If I were hungry, I would not tell thee,.... Or "say to thee" w; ask for anything

for the world [is] mine, and the fulness thereof; with which, was the former his case, he could satisfy himself; see Psalms 24:1.

w לא אמר לך "non dicam tibi", V. L. Pagninus, Montanus, Musculus; "non dicerem tibi", Junius & Tremellius, Piscator, Cocceius, Michaelis.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

If I were hungry, I would not tell thee - I should not have occasion to apply to you; I should not be dependent on you.

For the world is mine - The earth; all that has been created.

And the fulness thereof - All that fills the world; all that exists upon it. The whole is at his disposal; to all that the earth produces he has a right. This language is used to show the absurdity of the supposition that he was in any way dependent on man, or that the offering of sacrifice could be supposed in any way to lay him under obligation.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 50:12. The world is mine, and the fulness thereof. — Ye cannot, therefore, give me any thing that is not my own.
