•       A Psalm of Asaph Compare
• 73:1Surely God is good to Israel, / To those who are pure in heart. Compare
• 73:2But as for me, my feet were nearly turned aside; / My steps had almost slipped. Compare
• 73:3For I was envious of the arrogant, / When I saw the prosperity of the wicked. Compare
• 73:4For they have no pangs in their death, / And their body is well nourished. Compare
• 73:5They do not find themselves in the hardship of men, / Nor are they plagued like other men. Compare
• 73:6Therefore pride is a necklace for them, / Violence covers them like a garment. Compare
• 73:7Their eyes bulge out from fatness; / The imaginations of their heart overflow. Compare
• 73:8They mock and wickedly speak of oppression; / They speak loftily. Compare
• 73:9They set their mouth against the heavens, / And their tongue walks about on the earth. Compare
• 73:10Therefore His people return here, / And waters of abundance are drained by them; Compare
• 73:11And they say, How does God know? / And is there knowledge with the Most High? Compare
• 73:12Behold, these are the wicked; / And always at ease, they heap up riches. Compare
• 73:13Surely I have purified my heart in vain, / And I have washed my hands in innocence. Compare
• 73:14For I have been plagued all day long / And chastened every morning. Compare
• 73:15If I had said, I will speak thus; / Behold, I would have betrayed the generation of Your children. Compare
• 73:16When I considered this in order to understand it, / It was a troublesome task in my sight, Compare
• 73:17Until I went into the sanctuary of God; / Then I perceived their end. Compare
• 73:18Surely You set them in slippery places; / You cast them down into ruins. Compare
• 73:19How they are made desolate in a moment! / They are utterly consumed by terrors. Compare
• 73:20Like a dream, when one awakes, You, O Lord, / Upon arising, will despise their image. Compare
• 73:21When my heart was embittered, / And inwardly I was pricked; Compare
• 73:22I was brutish and knew nothing; / I was like a beast before You. Compare
• 73:23Nevertheless I am continually with You; / You have taken hold of my right hand. Compare
• 73:24You will guide me with Your counsel, / And afterward You will receive me in glory. Compare
• 73:25Whom do I have in heaven but You? / And besides You there is nothing I desire on earth. Compare
• 73:26My flesh and my heart fail, / But God is the rock of my heart and my portion forever. Compare
• 73:27For behold, those who are far from You will perish; / You destroy all who go about as harlots away from You. Compare
• 73:28But as for me, drawing near to God is good for me; / I have made the Lord Jehovah my refuge, / That I may declare all Your works. Compare
