Psalms:73

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