Psalms 73:14-17 in English

¹⁴ For all the day long have I been plagued, And chastened every morning.

¹⁵ If I had said, I will speak thus; Behold, I had dealt treacherously with the generation of thy children.

¹⁶ When I thought how I might know this, It was too painful for me;

¹⁷ Until I went into the sanctuary of God, And considered their latter end.

¹⁴ Thou didst break to pieces the heads of the dragon; thou didst give him for meat to the Ethiopian nations.

¹⁵ Thou didst cleave fountains and torrents; thou driedst up mighty rivers.

¹⁶ The day is thine, and the night is thine; thou hast prepared the sun and the moon.

¹⁷ Thou hast made all the borders of the earth; thou hast made summer and spring.

¹⁴ For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.

¹⁵ If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.

¹⁶ When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;

¹⁷ Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.

¹⁴ For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.

¹⁵ If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.

¹⁶ When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;

¹⁷ Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.

¹⁴ You did break to pieces the heads of the dragon; you did give him for meat to the Ethiopian nations.

¹⁵ You did cleave fountains and torrents; you dried up mighty rivers.

¹⁶ The day is your, and the night is your; you have prepared the sun and the moon.

¹⁷ You have made all the borders of the earth; you have made summer and spring.

¹⁴ For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.

¹⁵ If I had said, I will speak thus; behold, I had dealt treacherously with the generation of thy children.

¹⁶ When I thought how I might know this, it was too painful for me;

¹⁷ Until I went into the sanctuary of God, and considered their latter end.

¹⁴ All day long I have problems, and every morning you punish me.

¹⁵ If I had said the things that the wicked people say, I would have been sinning against your people.

¹⁶ And when I tried to think about all this, it was very difficult for me to understand it.

¹⁷ But when I went to your temple, you spoke to me, and I understood what will happen to the wicked people after they die.

¹⁴ You did break to pieces the heads of the dragon; you did give him for meat to the Ethiopian nations.

¹⁵ You did cleave fountains and torrents; you dried up mighty rivers.

¹⁶ The day is your, and the night is your; you have prepared the sun and the moon.

¹⁷ You have made all the borders of the earth; you have made summer and spring.

¹⁴ For all day long I have been plagued, and punished every morning.

¹⁵ If I had said, “I will speak thus”, behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

¹⁶ When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me—

¹⁷ until I entered God’s sanctuary, and considered their latter end.

¹⁴ For all day long I have been plagued, and punished every morning.

¹⁵ If I had said, “I will speak thus”, behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

¹⁶ When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me—

¹⁷ until I entered God’s sanctuary, and considered their latter end.

¹⁴ For all day long I have been plagued, and punished every morning.

¹⁵ If I had said, “I will speak thus”, behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

¹⁶ When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me—

¹⁷ until I entered God’s sanctuary, and considered their latter end.

¹⁴ For I have been troubled all the day; every morning have I undergone punishment.

¹⁵ If I would make clear what it is like, I would say, You are false to the generation of your children.

¹⁶ When my thoughts were turned to see the reason of this, it was a weariness in my eyes;

¹⁷ Till I went into God's holy place, and saw the end of the evil-doers.

¹⁴ For all the day have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.

¹⁵ If I said, I will speak thus, behold, I should be faithless to the generation of thy children.

¹⁶ When I thought to be able to know this, it was a grievous task in mine eyes;

¹⁷ Until I went into the sanctuaries of God; then understood I their end.

¹⁴ Thou hast broken the heads of the dragon: thou hast given him to be meat for the people of the Ethiopians.

¹⁵ Thou hast broken up the fountains and the torrents: thou hast dried up the Ethan rivers.

¹⁶ Thine is the day, and thine is the night: thou hast made the morning light and the sun.

¹⁷ Thou hast made all the borders of the earth: the summer and the spring were formed by thee.

¹⁴ I'm cursed with suffering all day long; every morning I'm punished.

¹⁵ If I'd talked like this to others, I would have betrayed your people.

¹⁶ So I thought about it and tried to understand, but it looked like a lot of hard work to me—

¹⁷ until I went into God's Temple. Then I understood what happens to the wicked in the end.

¹⁴ For dayly haue I bene punished, and chastened euery morning.

¹⁵ If I say, I will iudge thus, beholde the generation of thy children: I haue trespassed.

¹⁶ Then thought I to know this, but it was too painefull for me,

¹⁷ Vntill I went into the Sanctuarie of God: then vnderstoode I their ende.

¹⁴ For all the day have I been plagued, and my chastisement came every morning.

¹⁵ If I had said: 'I will speak thus', behold, I had been faithless to the generation of Thy children.

¹⁶ And when I pondered how I might know this, it was wearisome in mine eyes;

¹⁷ Until I entered into the sanctuary of God, and considered their end.

¹⁴ For all the day long have I been plagued, And chastened every morning.

¹⁵ If I say, I will speak thus; Behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.

¹⁶ When I thought to know this, It was too painful for me;

¹⁷ Until I went into the sanctuary of God; Then understood I their end.

¹⁴ While I was afflicted all the day, and my chastisement came every morning.

¹⁵ But if I were to say, I will speak thus: behold, I would be treacherous against the generation of thy children.

¹⁶ And when I should think to know this, it would be trouble in my eyes;

¹⁷ Until I enter into the sanctuary of God; and understand what their future will be.

¹⁴ Thou didst break to pieces the heads of the dragon; Thou didst give him for meat to the Ethiopian nations.

¹⁵ Thou didst cleave fountains and torrents; Thou driedst up mighty rivers.

¹⁶ The day is thine, and the night is thine; Thou hast prepared the sun and the moon.

¹⁷ Thou hast made all the borders of the earth; Thou hast made summer and spring.

¹⁴ For every day have I been smitten; Every morn have I been chastened.

¹⁵ If I should resolve to speak like them, Surely I should be treacherous to the family of thy children.

¹⁶ So, when I studied to know this, It was painful to my eyes;

¹⁷ Until I went into the sanctuaries of God, And considered what was their end.

¹⁴ for all the day long was I plagued not a morning but I was chastised.

¹⁵ But to resolve to speak like they do would be treachery to your children.

¹⁶ So I sought to understand it, but a wearisome task it seemed:

¹⁷ till I entered the holy world of God and saw clearly their destiny.

¹⁴ for all the day long was I plagued not a morning but I was chastised.

¹⁵ But to resolve to speak like they do would be treachery to your children.

¹⁶ So I sought to understand it, but a wearisome task it seemed:

¹⁷ till I entered the holy world of God and saw clearly their destiny.

¹⁴ For all day long have I been plagued, and punished every morning.

¹⁵ If I had said, “I will speak thus;” behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

¹⁶ When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me;

¹⁷ Until I entered God’s sanctuary, and considered their latter end.

¹⁴ For all the day long I have been afflicted and disciplined every morning.

¹⁵ If I had said, “I will say these things,” then I would have betrayed this generation of your children.

¹⁶ Though I tried to understand these things, it was too difficult for me.

¹⁷ Then I went into God's sanctuary and came to understand their fate.

¹⁴ For all day long I have been plagued, and punished every morning.

¹⁵ If I had said, “I will speak thus”, behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

¹⁶ When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me—

¹⁷ until I entered God’s sanctuary, and considered their latter end.

¹⁴ For all day long I have been plagued, and punished every morning.

¹⁵ If I had said, “I will speak thus”, behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

¹⁶ When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me—

¹⁷ until I entered God’s sanctuary, and considered their latter end.

¹⁴ For all the day long have I been afflicted, and chastened every morning.

¹⁵ If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.

¹⁶ When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;

¹⁷ Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then I understood their end.

¹⁴ For all day long I have been plagued, and punished every morning.

¹⁵ If I had said, “I will speak thus”, behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

¹⁶ When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me—

¹⁷ until I entered God’s sanctuary, and considered their latter end.

¹⁴ For all day long I have been plagued, and punished every morning.

¹⁵ If I had said, “I will speak thus”, behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

¹⁶ When I tried to understand this, it was too painful for me—

¹⁷ until I entered God’s sanctuary, and considered their latter end.

¹⁴ And I was beaten all day; and my chastising was in morrowtides.

¹⁵ If I said, I shall tell thus; lo! I have reproved the nation of thy sons.

¹⁶ I guessed, that I should know this; but too much travail is before me.

¹⁷ Till I enter into the saintuary of God; and understand in the last things of them.

¹⁴ And I was beaten all day; and my chastising was in morrowtides. (Yea, all day long I am beaten down; and I am punished every morning.)

¹⁵ If I said, I shall tell thus; lo! I have reproved the nation of thy sons. (If I had said, I shall talk as they do; behold! I would have brought reproach upon the nation of thy children.)

¹⁶ I guessed, that I should know this; (but too much) travail is before me. (I tried to work through all of this; but it was too much for me.)

¹⁷ Till I enter into the saintuary of God; and understand in the last things of them. (Until I entered into the sanctuary of God; and there I understood their last things, that is, their end.)

¹⁴ And I am plagued all the day, And my reproof is every morning.

¹⁵ If I have said, 'I recount thus,' Lo, a generation of Thy sons I have deceived.

¹⁶ And I think to know this, Perverseness it is in mine eyes,

¹⁷ Till I come in to the sanctuaries of God, I attend to their latter end.
