11. They say, “How can God know?What does God Most High know?”
12. These people are wicked,always at ease and getting richer.
13. So why have I kept my heart pure?Why have I kept my hands from doing wrong?
14. I have suffered all day long.I have been punished every morning.
15. God, if I had decided to talk about this,I would have let your people down.
16. I tried to understand all this.But it was too hard for me to see
17. until I went to the Temple of God.Then I understood what will happen to them.
18. You have put them in danger.You cause them to be destroyed.
19. They are destroyed in a moment.They are swept away by terrors.
20. It will be like waking from a dream.Lord, when you come, they will disappear.
21. When my heart was sad andI was angry,
22. I was senseless and stupid.I acted like an animal toward you.
