Psalm 73:8-15
New International Version
8 They scoff, and speak with malice;(A)
with arrogance(B) they threaten oppression.(C)
9 Their mouths lay claim to heaven,
and their tongues take possession of the earth.
10 Therefore their people turn to them
and drink up waters in abundance.[a]
11 They say, “How would God know?
Does the Most High know anything?”
13 Surely in vain(F) I have kept my heart pure
and have washed my hands in innocence.(G)
14 All day long I have been afflicted,(H)
and every morning brings new punishments.
15 If I had spoken out like that,
I would have betrayed your children.
