“They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.”
Psalms 73:8 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 73:8
The wicked 'corrupt' others through their speech, speaking 'wickedly concerning oppression' from their lofty position. They use rhetorical skill to justify exploitation and pervert justice. Speaking 'loftily' indicates arrogant confidence that their power immunizes them from consequences. This describes corrupt leaders who twist language to legitimize injustice. Yet God hears every word (Matthew 12:36) and will judge those who use speech to harm rather than heal.
