9. They speak evil of God in heavenand give arrogant orders to everyone on earth,
10. so that even God's people turn to themand eagerly believe whatever they say.
11. They say, “God will not know;the Most High will not find out.”

14. O God, you have made me suffer all day long;every morning you have punished me.
15. If I had said such things,I would not be acting as one of your people.
16. I tried to think this problem through,but it was too difficult for me
17. until I went into your Temple.Then I understood what will happen to the wicked.
