strkjv@Psalms:73:1
@A
Psalm
of
Asaph
.Truly
God
is
good
to
Israel
, even to such as are of a
clean
heart
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:2
@ But as for me, my
feet
were
almost
gone
; my
steps
had well
nigh
slipped
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:3
@ For I was
envious
at the
foolish
, when I
saw
the
prosperity
of the
wicked
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:4
@ For there are no
bands
in their
death
: but their
strength
is
firm
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:5
@ They are not in
trouble
as other
men
; neither are they
plagued
like
other
men
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:6
@ Therefore
pride
compasseth them about as a
chain
;
violence
covereth
them as a
garment
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:7
@ Their
eyes
stand
out
with
fatness
: they have
more
than
heart
could
wish
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:8
@ They are
corrupt
, and
speak
wickedly
concerning
oppression
: they
speak
loftily
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:9
@ They
set
their
mouth
against the
heavens
, and their
tongue
walketh
through the
earth
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:10
@ Therefore his
people
return
hither
: and
waters
of a
full
cup are wrung
out
to them.
strkjv@Psalms:73:11
@ And they
say
, How doth
God
know
? and is
there
knowledge
in the most
High
?
strkjv@Psalms:73:12
@ Behold, these are the
ungodly
, who
prosper
in the
world
; they
increase
in
riches
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:13
@ Verily I have
cleansed
my
heart
in
vain
, and
washed
my
hands
in
innocency
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:14
@ For all the
day
long have I been
plagued
, and
chastened
every
morning
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:15
@ If I
say
, I will
speak
thus
; behold, I should
offend
against the
generation
of thy
children
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:16
@ When I
thought
to
know
this, it was too
painful
for
me
;
strkjv@Psalms:73:17
@ Until I
went
into the
sanctuary
of
God
; then
understood
I their
end
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:18
@ Surely thou didst
set
them in slippery
places
: thou castedst them
down
into
destruction
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:19
@ How are they brought into
desolation
, as in a
moment
! they are
utterly
consumed
with
terrors
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:20
@ As a
dream
when one
awaketh
; so, O
Lord
, when thou
awakest
, thou shalt
despise
their
image
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:21
@ Thus my
heart
was
grieved
, and I was
pricked
in my
reins
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:22
@ So
foolish
was I, and
ignorant
: I was as a
beast
before thee.
strkjv@Psalms:73:23
@ Nevertheless I am
continually
with thee: thou hast
holden
me by my
right
hand
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:24
@ Thou shalt
guide
me with thy
counsel
, and
afterward
receive
me to
glory
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:25
@ Whom have I in
heaven
but thee? and there is none upon
earth
that I
desire
beside thee.
strkjv@Psalms:73:26
@ My
flesh
and my
heart
faileth
: but
God
is the
strength
of my
heart
, and my
portion
for
ever
.
strkjv@Psalms:73:27
@ For, lo, they that are
far
from thee shall
perish
: thou hast
destroyed
all them that go a
whoring
from thee.
strkjv@Psalms:73:28
@
But
it is
good
for me to draw
near
to
God
: I have
put
my
trust
in the
Lord
GOD
, that I may
declare
all thy
works
