Settings

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
A Maschil of Asaph Compare
74:1Why, O God, have You cast us off forever? / Why does Your anger smoke against the sheep of Your pasture? Compare
74:2Remember Your assembly, which You have purchased of old, / Which You have redeemed as the tribe of Your inheritance, / And Mount Zion, where You dwell. Compare
74:3Lift up Your steps unto the perpetual ruins; / The enemy has damaged everything in the sanctuary. Compare
74:4Your adversaries have roared in the midst of Your assembly place; / They have set up their symbols as signs. Compare
74:5It looked like when men bring up axes / On the thicket of the trees. Compare
74:6And now they have struck down with hatchet and hammer / Its carved work altogether. Compare
74:7They have set fire to Your sanctuary; / They have defiled the dwelling place of Your name to the ground. Compare
74:8They said in their heart, Let us oppress them completely. / They have burned down all God's assembly places in the land. Compare
74:9We do not see our signs; there is no longer a prophet, / Nor is there anyone among us who knows how long. Compare
74:10How long, O God, will the adversary reproach? / Will the enemy despise Your name forever? Compare
74:11Why do You withdraw Your hand, even Your right hand? / Bring it forth from the midst of Your bosom; destroy them . Compare
74:12But God is my King of old, / Accomplishing salvation in the midst of the earth. Compare
74:13You divided the sea by Your strength; / You broke the heads of the sea serpents on the waters. Compare
74:14You crushed the heads of the leviathan; / You gave him as food to the creatures of the desert. Compare
74:15You broke open the fountain and the torrent; / You dried up the ever-flowing streams. Compare
74:16The day is Yours; the night also is Yours; / You prepared the moon and the sun. Compare
74:17You established all the borders of the earth: / You formed the summer and the winter. Compare
74:18Remember this: The enemy has reproached Jehovah, / And a foolish people has despised Your name. Compare
