Psalms 73:12 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 73:12

Compare all

10 Therefore his people return here,
^aAnd waters of a full cup are drained by them.

11 And they say, ^a“How does God know?
And is there knowledge in the Most High?”

12 Behold, these are the ungodly,
Who are always at ease;
They increase in riches.

13 Surely I have¹ cleansed my heart in ^avain,
And washed my hands in innocence.

14 For all day long I have been plagued,
And chastened every morning.

15 If I had said, “I will speak thus,”
Behold, I would have been untrue to the generation of Your children.

16 When I thought how to understand this,
It was¹ too painful for me—

17 Until I went into the sanctuary of God;
Then I understood their ^aend.

18 Surely ^aYou set them in slippery places;
You cast them down to destruction.
