Psalms 73:11-17

11They say, “1How does God know? And is there knowledge 2with the Most High?”12Behold, 3these are the wicked; And always 4at ease, they have increased in wealth.13Surely 5in vain I have 6kept my heart pure And 7washed my hands in innocence;14For I have been stricken 8all day long, And 910punished every morning.

15If I had said, “I will speak this way,” Behold, I would have betrayed the 11generation of Your children.16When I 12thought of understanding this, It was 13troublesome in my sight17Until I entered the 1415sanctuary of God; Then I perceived their 16end.
