"Surely you put them in slippery places; you bring them down to ruin."
— Psalms 73:18, NET Bible®
If I had publicized these thoughts, I would have betrayed your people.
When I tried to make sense of this, it was troubling to me.
Then I entered the precincts of God’s temple, and understood the destiny of the wicked.
Surely you put them in slippery places; you bring them down to ruin.
How desolate they become in a mere moment! Terrifying judgments make their demise complete!
They are like a dream after one wakes up. O Lord, when you awake you will despise them.
Yes, my spirit was bitter, and my insides felt sharp pain.
