King James Version with Apocrypha
"They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily."
— Psalms 73:8, King James Version with Apocrypha
“They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.”
“They scoff, and in wickedness utter oppression: They speak loftily. ”
“They scoff and speak with malice. In arrogance, they threaten oppression.”
“They mock and say evil things; they proudly threaten violence.”
“They said in their heart, the whole kindred of them together: Let us abolish all the festival days of God from the land.”
“Their thoughts are deep with evil designs; their talk from their seats of power is of cruel acts.”
They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?
