Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Your eyes are too pure to look upon evil, and You cannot tolerate wrongdoing. So why do You tolerate the faithless? Why are You silent while the wicked swallow up those more righteous than themselves?
World English Bible (WEB)
You who have purer eyes than to see evil, and who cannot look on perversity, why do you tolerate those who deal treacherously, and keep silent when the wicked swallows up the man who is more righteous than he,
Strong's King James
Thou art of purer{H2889} eyes{H5869} than to behold{H7200}{(H8800)} evil{H7451}, and canst{H3201}{(H8799)} not look{H5027}{(H8687)} on iniquity{H5999}: wherefore lookest{H5027}{(H8686)} thou upon them that deal treacherously{H898}{(H8802)}, and holdest thy tongue{H2790}{(H8686)} when the wicked{H7563} devoureth{H1104}{(H8763)} the man that is more righteous{H6662} than he?
The F.O.G *
[Your] eyes of purity see evil,
You don't look at trouble [approvingly]!
Why oh why do You look at those acting treacherously in silence?
When the guilty is swallowing up those more innocent than them.
The F.O.G Message *
Young's Literal Translation
Purer of eyes than to behold evil, To look on perverseness Thou art not able, Why dost Thou behold the treacherous? Thou keepest silent when the wicked Doth swallow the more righteous than he,
