Psalm 73:22

Contemporary English Version 1995

I was stupid and ignorant, and I treated you as a wild animal would.

See the chapter Copy

I know God is testing us to show us that we are merely animals.

for an ignorant fool to know or understand.

We see that wise people die, and so do stupid fools. Then their money is left for someone else.

Oxen and donkeys know who owns and feeds them, but my people won't ever learn.”

I am far too stupid to be considered human.

Don't be stupid like horses and mules that must be led with ropes to make them obey.”

You know my foolish sins. Not one is hidden from you.

Or do you think that we are dumb animals?

Though the wicked sprout and spread like grass, they will be pulled up by their roots.
