73 A psalm of Asaph.

73 A Psalm of Asaph. Surely God is good to Israel,

to those with a pure heart.

2 But as for me, my feet almost slipped;

my steps almost were caused to slide out from under me

3 because I was envious of the arrogant

when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.

4 For they have no ropes until their death,

and their belly is fat.

5 They are free from the trouble of man;

and with the rest of man they are not afflicted.

6 Therefore pride is a necklace for them;

a garment of violence covers them.

7 Their eyes bulge out from fatness;

the imaginations of their heart overflow.

8 They mock and speak with evil of oppression;

they speak from an elevated place.

9 They set their mouth in the heavens,

and their tongue goes through the earth.

10 Therefore his people turn here,

and waters of a full cup are drained by them.

11 And they say, “How does God know?

And is there knowledge in the Most High?”

12 Behold, these wicked;

they are always at ease, they increase in wealth.

13 Surely in vain I have kept my heart clean

and washed my hands in innocence.

14 For I have been stricken all of the day,

and punished every morning.

15 If I had said, “I will recount such things,”

Behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

16 And when I thought how to understand this,

it was troublesome in my eyes

17 until I went into the sanctuaries of God;

then I discerned their end.

18 Surely you set them in slippery places;

you make them fall to destruction.

19 How they are brought to desolation as in a moment!

They come to an end, they perish, by terrors.

20 Like a dream after one awakes;

Lord, when you rouse yourself, you will despise their image.

21 When my heart was embittered,

and I was pierced in my kidneys,

22 I was stupid and I was not knowing;

I was an animal with you.

23 Yet I am continuously with you;

you hold me by my right hand.

24 You guide me with your counsel,

and afterward you will take me to glory.

25 Whom have I in heaven but you?

And besides you there is nothing on the earth I desire.

26 My flesh and my heart fail,

but God is the rock of my heart and my portion forever.

27 For behold, those who are far from you will perish;

you destroy every one being unfaithful to you.

28 But for me, the closeness of God for me is good.

I have made the Lord Yahweh my refuge,

in order to recount all your works.
