Psalms 73
1 TRULY God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
A psalm of Asaph surely [is] good to Israel God to [people] pure of heart.
2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
And I like a little (they had turned aside *Q(K)*) feet my like nothing (they had been poured out *Q(K)*) steps my.
3 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
For I was jealous of the boasters [the] well-being of wicked [people] I saw.
4 For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
That there not [are] pangs to death their and [is] fat body their.
5 They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
[are] in [the] trouble of Humankind not they and with humankind not they are stricken.
6 Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
Therefore [it is] a necklace [for] them pride it covers a garment of violence them.
7 Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
It comes out from fat eye their they pass over [the] imaginations of heart.
8 They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
They mock - and they may speak with evil oppression from a high place they speak.
9 They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
They set in the heavens mouth their and tongue their it walks on the earth.
10 Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
Therefore - (it turns back *Q(K)*) people his here and waters of full they are drained by them.
11 And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?
And they say how? does he know God and [is] there? knowledge with [the] Most High.
12 Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.
Here! these [are] wicked [people] and [people] at ease of perpetuity they increase wealth.
13 Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
Surely vanity I have kept pure heart my and I have washed in innocence hands my.
14 For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
And I have been stricken all the day and rebuke my [has been] to the mornings.
15 If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.
If I had said I will speak like here! [the] generation of children your I dealt treacherously with.
16 When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;
And I thought! to know this [was] trouble (it *Q(K)*) in view my.
17 Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.
Until I went into [the] sanctuari of God I considered end their.
18 Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
Surely on slippery [places] you set them you make fall them to deceptions.
19 How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.
How! they have become a waste like a moment they come to an end they are finished from sudden terror.
20 As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.
Like a dream from when awakes O Lord when waken - image their you will despise.
21 Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.
If it was embittered heart my and kidneys my I was pierced.
22 So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.
And I [was] stupid and not I knew animals I was with you.
23 Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand.
And I continually [am] with you you take hold on [the] hand of right my.
24 Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.
With counsel your you guide me and after honor you will take me.
25 Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
Who? [belongs] to me in the heavens and with you not I take pleasure on the earth.
26 My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.
It had come to an end flesh my and heart my [is] [the] rock of heart my and portion my God for ever.
27 For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee.
For there! [people] far from you they will perish you destroy every [one who] acts as a prostitute from you.
28 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.
And I - [the] approach of God for me [is] good I have made - in [the] Lord Yahweh refuge my to recount all works your.
