Psalm 73:15

World English Bible (WEB)

If I had said, “I will speak thus”, behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

In context

13 Surely I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocence,

14 For all day long I have been plagued, and punished every morning.

15 If I had said, “I will speak thus”, behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

16 When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me—

17 until I entered God’s sanctuary, and considered their latter end.
