rotherham@Psalms:73:2 @ But, as for me, My feet had, almost stumbled, My steps had, well-nigh slipped;

rotherham@Psalms:73:3 @ For I was envious of the boasters, At the prosperity of the lawless, used I to look.

rotherham@Psalms:73:4 @ For they have no pangs in their death, And vigorous is their body;

rotherham@Psalms:73:5 @ Of the toil of weak mortals, have they none, Nor, with the sons of earth, are they hard smitten.

rotherham@Psalms:73:6 @ For this cause, doth arrogance deck them as a neck-chain, And a garment of wrong is their attire;

rotherham@Psalms:73:7 @ Their iniquity, hath proceeded from fatness, They have surpassed the imaginations of the heart;

rotherham@Psalms:73:8 @ They mock, and wickedly command oppression, From on high, they command;

rotherham@Psalms:73:9 @ They have set, in the heavens, their mouth, And, their tongue, marcheth through the earth.

rotherham@Psalms:73:13 @ Altogether in vain, Have I cleansed my heart, And bathed in pureness, my hands;

rotherham@Psalms:73:14 @ And yet been smitten all the day, And been rebuked morning by morning!

rotherham@Psalms:73:15 @ If I had thought, I will relate it thus, Lo! the circle of thy sons, had I betrayed.

rotherham@Psalms:73:16 @ When I reasoned, that I might understand this, A vexation, it was in mine eyes:

rotherham@Psalms:73:17 @ Until I could enter the holy places of God, Could give heed to their hereafter:

rotherham@Psalms:73:22 @ But, I, was brutish, and could not perceive, Like the beasts, had I become before thee.

rotherham@Psalms:73:23 @ Nevertheless, I, am continually before thee, Thou hast taken hold of my right hand;

rotherham@Psalms:73:24 @ By thy counsel, wilt thou guide me, And, afterwards, unto glory, wilt thou take me.
