Psalm 73:16–17

But when I thought how to understand this,

it seemed to me a wearisome task,

until I went into the sanctuary of God;

then I discerned their end.

When I tried to understand all this,

it troubled me deeply

till I entered the sanctuary of God;

then I understood their final destiny.

When I tried to understand all this,

it seemed hopeless

until I entered God’s sanctuary.

Then I understood their destiny.

So I tried to understand why the wicked prosper.

But what a difficult task it is!

Then I went into your sanctuary, O God,

and I finally understood the destiny of the wicked.

When I thought about how to understand this,

it was troubling in my eyes

until I went into the sanctuary of God.

Then I understood their fate.

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.
