Psalms 73:11

73:11 They say, “How does God know what we do?

Is the sovereign one aware of what goes on?” ¹ 

Psalms 73:19

73:19 How desolate they become in a mere moment!

Terrifying judgments make their demise complete! ² 

Psalms 137:4

137:4 How can we sing a song to the Lord

in a foreign land?

[73:11]  ¹ tn Heb “How does God know? Is there knowledge with the Most High?” They appear to be practical atheists, who acknowledge God’s existence and sovereignty in theory, but deny his involvement in the world (see Pss 10:4, 11; 14:1).

[73:19]  ² tn Heb “they come to an end, they are finished, from terrors.”
