They set their mouths against the heavens,
    and their tongue struts through the earth.
10 Therefore his people turn back to them,
    and find (A)no fault in them.[a]
11 And they say, (B)“How can God know?
    Is there knowledge in the Most High?”
12 Behold, these are the wicked;
    always at ease, they (C)increase in riches.
13 All in vain have I (D)kept my heart clean
    and (E)washed my hands in innocence.
14 For all the day long I have been (F)stricken
    and (G)rebuked (H)every morning.
15 If I had said, “I will speak thus,”
    I would have betrayed (I)the generation of your children.
