Psalms 73:13-17
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 73
13Surely in vain I have kept my heart pure And washed my hands in innocence; 14For I have been stricken all day long, And punished every morning. 15If I had said, 'I will speak this way,' Behold, I would have betrayed the generation of Your children. 16When I thought of understanding this, It was troublesome in my sight 17Until I entered the sanctuary of God; Then I perceived their end.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 73
13Did I purify my heart and wash my hands in innocence for nothing? 14For I am afflicted all day long and punished every morning. 15If I had decided to say these things aloud, I would have betrayed your people. 16When I tried to understand all this, it seemed hopeless 17until I entered God's sanctuary. Then I understood their destiny.New Living Translation
English Standard Version
Chapter 73
13All in vain have I kept my heart clean and washed my hands in innocence. 14For all the day long I have been stricken and rebuked every morning. 15If I had said, “I will speak thus,” I would have betrayed the generation of your children. 16But when I thought how to understand this, it seemed to me a wearisome task, 17until I went into the sanctuary of God; then I discerned their end.New International Version
