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 !
