An Asaphite song.
73 Yes, to the upright God is good,
to hearts unstained.
2 I almost slipped,
I nearly lost my footing,
3 in anger at the godless and their arrogance,
at the sight of their success.
4 No pain is theirs,
but sound, strong health;
5 no part have they in human cares,
no blows like other men.
6 So they vaunt them in their pride,
and flaunt them in rough insolence;
7 vice oozes from their very soul,
their minds are rank and riotous,
8 their talk is mocking and malicious,
and haughtily they lay their plots;
9 lofty as heaven itself their speech,
lording it over the world below.
10 So people turn to follow them,
and see no wrong in them,
11 thinking, “What does God care?
How can the Almighty heed—when these,
12 the godless, prosperously fare,
thriving thus at their ease?”
13 ’Tis all in vain I kept my heart from stain,
kept my life clean,
14 when all day long blows fell on me,
and every dawn brought me some chastening!
15 Yet, had I meant to utter this aloud,
I had been faithless to thy family.
16 So I thought of it, thinking to fathom it;
but sorely it troubled me,
17 till I found out God’s secret,
viewing their latter end.
18 Thou plantest them on slippery ground,
thou hurlest them to ruin—
19 laid low in a single moment,
scared away, swept away,
20 like a dream when one awakens,
like phantoms despised by the day!
21 When my heart was sour,
when I felt sore,
22 I was a dull, stupid creature
no better than a brute before thee.
23 Yet I am always beside thee;
thou holdest my right hand,
24 guiding me with thy counsel,
leading me after thyself by the hand.
25 Whom have I in heaven but thee?
On earth I care for nothing else.
26 Body and soul may fail,
but God my strength is mine for evermore.
27 Those who leave thee are lost;
all who are faithless to thee, thou destroyest.
28 But to be near God is my bliss,
to shelter with the Lord
[[that I may tell of all thy works]].
