NETBible

Why does the wicked man reject God?¹ He says to himself,² “You³ will not hold me accountable.”⁴

NET Notes

¹tn The rhetorical question expresses the psalmist’s outrage that the wicked would have the audacity to disdain God.

²tn Heb “he says in his heart” (see vv. 6, 11). Another option is to understand an ellipsis of the interrogative particle here (cf. the preceding line), “Why does he say in his heart?”

³tn Here the wicked man addresses God directly.

⁴tn Heb “you will not seek.” The verb דָרַשׁ (darash, “seek”) is used here in the sense of “seek an accounting.” One could understand the imperfect as generalizing about what is typical and translate, “you do not hold [people] accountable.”
