"If I had said, "I will speak thus;" behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children."
— Psalms 73:15, World English Bible
“If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.”
“If I had said, I will speak thus; Behold, I had dealt treacherously with the generation of thy children. ”
“If I had publicized these thoughts, I would have betrayed your people.”
“Thou hast broken up the fountains and the torrents: thou hast dried up the Ethan rivers.”
“If I would make clear what it is like, I would say, You are false to the generation of your children.”
“If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.”
Behold, these are the wicked. Being always at ease, they increase in riches.
Surely in vain I have cleansed my heart, and washed my hands in innocence,
For all day long have I been plagued, and punished every morning.
If I had said, "I will speak thus;" behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.
When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me;
Until I entered God's sanctuary, and considered their latter end.
Surely you set them in slippery places. You throw them down to destruction.
