mkjv@Psalms:73:1 @ A Psalm of Asaph. Truly God [is] good to Israel, to the pure of heart.

mkjv@Psalms:73:2 @ And I, my foot had almost stumbled; my steps had nearly slipped.

mkjv@Psalms:73:3 @ For I was jealous of the proud, [when] I saw the peace of the wicked.

mkjv@Psalms:73:4 @ For [there are] no bands in their death; but their strength [is] fat.

mkjv@Psalms:73:5 @ They [are] not in trouble [like other] men; neither are they plagued like other men.

mkjv@Psalms:73:6 @ Therefore pride enchains them; violence covers them [like] a robe.

mkjv@Psalms:73:7 @ Their eyes stand out with fatness; they have more than the heart could imagine.

mkjv@Psalms:73:8 @ They scoff and speak in malice of cruelty; from on high they speak.

mkjv@Psalms:73:9 @ They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walks through the earth.

mkjv@Psalms:73:10 @ Therefore His people return here, and waters of a full [cup are] wrung out to them.

mkjv@Psalms:73:11 @ And they say, How does God know? And is there knowledge in the Most High?

mkjv@Psalms:73:12 @ Behold, these [are] the ungodly, who are at ease in the world; they increase [in] riches.

mkjv@Psalms:73:13 @ Surely I have made my heart pure [in] vain, and washed my hands in innocence.

mkjv@Psalms:73:14 @ For all the day long I have been plagued, and chastened every morning.

mkjv@Psalms:73:15 @ If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I would deceive a generation of Your sons.

mkjv@Psalms:73:16 @ When I thought deeply in order to understand this, it [was] painful for me,

mkjv@Psalms:73:17 @ until I went into the sanctuary of God; [then] I understood their end.

mkjv@Psalms:73:18 @ Surely You set them in slippery places; You cast them down into ruin.

mkjv@Psalms:73:19 @ How have they been [brought] into grief, as in a moment! They are fully eaten up with terrors,

mkjv@Psalms:73:20 @ like a dream when [one] awakens; so, O LORD, when You awake, You shall despise their image.

mkjv@Psalms:73:21 @ For my heart was grieved and I was pricked [in] my reins.

mkjv@Psalms:73:22 @ So foolish [was] I, and I did not know; I was [like] a beast before You.

mkjv@Psalms:73:23 @ But I [am] always with You; You have held [me] by my right hand.

mkjv@Psalms:73:24 @ You shall lead me with Your counsel, and afterward receive me [to] glory.

mkjv@Psalms:73:25 @ Whom have I in Heaven? And besides You I desire none on earth.

mkjv@Psalms:73:26 @ My flesh and my heart fail; [but] God [is] the strength of my heart, and my part forever.

mkjv@Psalms:73:27 @ For lo, those who are far from You shall perish; You have destroyed all who go lusting away from You.

mkjv@Psalms:73:28 @ And I, [it is] good for me to draw near to God; I have put my trust in the LORD God, to declare all Your works.
