King James Version
"When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;"
— Psalms 73:16, King James Version
“When I thought how I might know this, It was too painful for me; ”
“When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me;”
“When I tried to make sense of this, it was troubling to me.”
“Thine is the day, and thine is the night: thou hast made the morning light and the sun.”
“When my thoughts were turned to see the reason of this, it was a weariness in my eyes;”
“When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;”
Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.
When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;
Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.
Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.
