Psa 73:7-11, 18-20, Ecc 8:8, Hos 12:7-8 | ESV | STEP | Their eyes swell out through fatness ; their hearts overflow with follies .

Psalms 73:7-11

7 Their ^aeyes swell out through fatness;
their hearts overflow with follies.
8 They scoff and ^bspeak with malice;
loftily they threaten oppression.
9 They set their mouths against the heavens,
and their tongue struts through the earth.
10 Therefore his people turn back to them,
and find ^cno fault in them. ^{▼▼Probable reading; Hebrew the waters of a full cup are drained by them}
11 And they say, ^e“How can God know?
Is there knowledge in the Most High?”

Psalms 73:18-20

18 Truly you set them in ^fslippery places;
you make them fall to ruin.
19 How they are destroyed ^gin a moment,
swept away utterly by ^hterrors!
20 Like ⁱa dream when one awakes,
O Lord, when ^jyou rouse yourself, you despise them as phantoms.

Ecclesiastes 8:8

8 No man has power to ^kretain the spirit, ^lor power over the day of death. There is no ^mdischarge from war, nor will wickedness deliver those who are given to it.

Hosea 12:7-8

7 A merchant, in whose hands are ⁿfalse balances,
he loves ^oto oppress.
8 Ephraim has said, “Ah, but ^pI am rich;
I have found wealth for myself;
in all my labors ^qthey cannot find in me iniquity or sin.”
