Psalms 73
1 A Psalm for Asaph. How good is God to Israel, to the upright in heart!
A psalm of Asaph surely [is] good to Israel God to [people] pure of heart.
2 But my feet were almost overthrown; my goings very nearly 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 jealous of the transgressors, beholding the tranquility of sinners.
For I was jealous of the boasters [the] well-being of wicked [people] I saw.
4 For there is no sign of reluctance in their death: and [they have] firmness under their affliction.
That there not [are] pangs to death their and [is] fat body their.
5 They are not in the troubles of [other] men; and they shall not be scourged with [other] men.
[are] in [the] trouble of Humankind not they and with humankind not they are stricken.
6 Therefore pride has possessed them; they have clothed themselves with their injustice and ungodliness.
Therefore [it is] a necklace [for] them pride it covers a garment of violence them.
7 Their injustice shall go forth as out of fatness: they have fulfilled their intention.
It comes out from fat eye their they pass over [the] imaginations of heart.
8 They have taken counsel and spoken in wickedness: they have uttered unrighteousness loftily.
They mock - and they may speak with evil oppression from a high place they speak.
9 They have set their mouth against heaven, and their tongue has gone through upon the earth.
They set in the heavens mouth their and tongue their it walks on the earth.
10 Therefore shall my people return hither: and full days shall be found with them.
Therefore - (it turns back *Q(K)*) people his here and waters of full they are drained by them.
11 And they said, How does 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 sinners, and they that prosper always: they have possessed wealth.
Here! these [are] wicked [people] and [people] at ease of perpetuity they increase wealth.
13 And I said, Verily in vain have I justified my heart, and washed my hands in innocency.
Surely vanity I have kept pure heart my and I have washed in innocence hands my.
14 For I was plagued all the day, and my reproof [was] every morning.
And I have been stricken all the day and rebuke my [has been] to the mornings.
15 If I said, I will speak thus; behold, I [should] have broken covenant with the generation of your children.
If I had said I will speak like here! [the] generation of children your I dealt treacherously with.
16 And I undertook to understand this, [but] it is too hard for me,
And I thought! to know this [was] trouble (it *Q(K)*) in view my.
17 until I go into the sanctuary of God; [and so] understand the latter end.
Until I went into [the] sanctuari of God I considered end their.
18 Surely you have appointed [judgments] to them because of their crafty dealings: you have cast them down when they were lifted up.
Surely on slippery [places] you set them you make fall them to deceptions.
19 How have they become desolate! suddenly they have failed: they have perished because of their iniquity.
How! they have become a waste like a moment they come to an end they are finished from sudden terror.
20 As the dream of one awakening, O Lord, in your city you will despise their image.
Like a dream from when awakes O Lord when waken - image their you will despise.
21 For my heart has rejoiced, and my reins have been gladdened.
If it was embittered heart my and kidneys my I was pierced.
22 But I [was] vile and knew not: I became brutish before you.
And I [was] stupid and not I knew animals I was with you.
23 Yet I am continually with you: you have holden my right hand.
And I continually [am] with you you take hold on [the] hand of right my.
24 You have guided me by your counsel, and you have taken me to yourself with glory.
With counsel your you guide me and after honor you will take me.
25 For what have I in heaven [but you]? and what have I desired upon the earth beside you?
Who? [belongs] to me in the heavens and with you not I take pleasure on the earth.
26 My heart and my flesh have failed: [but] God [is the strength] of my heart, and God is 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, behold, they that remove themselves far from you shall perish: you have destroyed every one that goes a whoring from you.
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 cleave close to God, to put my trust in the Lord; that I may proclaim all your praises in the gates of the daughter of Sion.
And I - [the] approach of God for me [is] good I have made - in [the] Lord Yahweh refuge my to recount all works your.
