The King James Version Bible

Psalms 73:11-18

  1. And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?

  2. Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.

  3. Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.

  4. For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.

  5. If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.

  6. When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;

  7. Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.

  8. Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
