\d A psalm of Asaph.
\q
\v 1 Surely God is good to Israel,
\q to those with a pure heart.
\q
\v 2 But as for me, my feet almost slipped;
\q my feet almost slipped out from under me
\q
\v 3 because I was envious of the arrogant
\q when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.

\s5
\q
\v 4 For they have no pain until their death,
\q but they are strong and well fed.
\q
\v 5 They are free from the burdens of other men;
\q they are not afflicted like other men.

\s5
\q
\v 6 Pride adorns them like a necklace around their neck;
\q violence clothes them like a robe.
\q
\v 7 Out of such blindness comes sin;
\q evil thoughts pass through their hearts.

2016-09-06 13:57:24 +00:00
\v 8 They mock and speak wickedly;
2016-11-22 17:07:02 +00:00
\q in their arrogance they threaten oppression.
2016-04-01 21:07:38 +00:00
\q
2016-09-06 13:57:24 +00:00
\v 9 They set their mouth against the heavens,
2016-11-22 17:07:02 +00:00
\q and their tongues march through the earth.

\s5
\q
2016-11-22 16:56:59 +00:00
\v 10 Therefore his people turn to them
\q and abundant waters are drained out.
2016-04-01 21:07:38 +00:00
\q
\v 11 They say, "How does God know?
2016-09-06 15:06:19 +00:00
\q Is there knowledge with the Most High?"
2016-04-01 21:07:38 +00:00
\q
\v 12 Take notice: these people are wicked;
\q they are always carefree, becoming richer and richer.

\s5
\q
\v 13 Surely it is in vain that I have guarded my heart
\q and washed my hands in innocence.
\q
\v 14 For all the day long I have been afflicted
2016-04-01 21:07:38 +00:00
\q and disciplined every morning.
\q
\v 15 If I had said, "I will say these things,"
\q then I would have betrayed this generation of your children.

2016-04-01 21:07:38 +00:00
\s5
\q
\v 16 Though I tried to understand these things,
\q it was too difficult for me.
\q
\v 17 Then I went into God's sanctuary
\q and came to understand their fate.

\s5
\q
\v 18 Surely you put them in slippery places;
\q you bring them down to ruin.
\q
\v 19 How they become a wilderness in a moment!
\q They come to an end and are finished in awful terrors.
\q
\v 20 They are like a dream after one wakes up;
\q2 Lord, when you arise, you will think nothing of those dreams.

\s5
\q
\v 21 For my heart was grieved,
\q and I was deeply wounded.
\q
\v 22 I was ignorant and lacked insight;
\q I was like a senseless animal before you.
2016-11-04 21:12:37 +00:00
2016-04-01 21:07:38 +00:00
\s5
\q
\v 23 Yet I am always with you;
\q you hold my right hand.
\q
\v 24 You will guide me with your advice
\q and afterward receive me to glory.

\s5
\q
\v 25 Whom have I in heaven but you?
\q There is no one on earth that I desire but you.
\q
\v 26 My flesh and my heart grow weak,
\q but God is the strength of my heart forever.

2016-04-01 21:07:38 +00:00
\s5
\q
\v 27 Those who are far from you will perish;
\q you will destroy all those who are unfaithful
to you.
\q
2016-06-22 11:50:13 +00:00
\v 28 But as for me, all I need to do is to approach God.
2016-04-01 21:07:38 +00:00
\q I have made the Lord Yahweh my refuge.
\q I will declare all your deeds.
