Psalms 73




ylt@Psalms:73:1 @A Psalm of Asaph. Only -- good to Israel [is] God, to the clean of heart. And I -- as a little thing, My feet have been turned aside,

ylt@Psalms:73:2 @As nothing, have my steps slipped, For I have been envious of the boastful,

ylt@Psalms:73:3 @The peace of the wicked I see, That there are no bands at their death,

ylt@Psalms:73:4 @And their might [is] firm.

ylt@Psalms:73:5 @In the misery of mortals they are not, And with common men they are not plagued.

ylt@Psalms:73:6 @Therefore hath pride encircled them, Violence covereth them as a dress.

ylt@Psalms:73:7 @Their eye hath come out from fat. The imaginations of the heart transgressed;

ylt@Psalms:73:8 @They do corruptly, And they speak in the wickedness of oppression, From on high they speak.

ylt@Psalms:73:9 @They have set in the heavens their mouth, And their tongue walketh in the earth.

ylt@Psalms:73:10 @Therefore do His people return hither, And waters of fulness are wrung out to them.

ylt@Psalms:73:11 @And they have said, 'How hath God known? And is there knowledge in the Most High?'

ylt@Psalms:73:12 @Lo, these [are] the wicked and easy ones of the age, They have increased strength.

ylt@Psalms:73:13 @Only -- a vain thing! I have purified my heart, And I wash in innocency my hands,

ylt@Psalms:73:14 @And I am plagued all the day, And my reproof [is] every morning.

ylt@Psalms:73:15 @If I have said, 'I recount thus,' Lo, a generation of Thy sons I have deceived.

ylt@Psalms:73:16 @And I think to know this, Perverseness it [is] in mine eyes,

ylt@Psalms:73:17 @Till I come in to the sanctuaries of God, I attend to their latter end.

ylt@Psalms:73:18 @Only, in slippery places Thou dost set them, Thou hast caused them to fall to desolations.

ylt@Psalms:73:19 @How have they become a desolation as in a moment, They have been ended -- consumed from terrors.

ylt@Psalms:73:20 @As a dream from awakening, O Lord, In awaking, their image Thou despisest.

ylt@Psalms:73:21 @For my heart doth show itself violent, And my reins prick themselves,

ylt@Psalms:73:22 @And I am brutish, and do not know. A beast I have been with Thee.

ylt@Psalms:73:23 @And I [am] continually with Thee, Thou hast laid hold on my right hand.

ylt@Psalms:73:24 @With Thy counsel Thou dost lead me, And after honour dost receive me.

ylt@Psalms:73:25 @Whom have I in the heavens? And with Thee none I have desired in earth.

ylt@Psalms:73:26 @Consumed hath been my flesh and my heart, The rock of my heart and my portion [is] God to the age.

ylt@Psalms:73:27 @For, lo, those far from Thee do perish, Thou hast cut off every one, Who is going a whoring from Thee.

ylt@Psalms:73:28 @And I -- nearness of God to me [is] good, I have placed in the Lord Jehovah my refuge, To recount all Thy works!
