BOOK THREE: Psalms 73—89

The Tragedy of the Wicked, and the Blessedness of Trust in God

A Psalm of ⚓Asaph.
  1Truly God is good to Israel,
   To such as are pure in heart.
    2But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled;
   My steps had nearly ⚓slipped.
    3⚓For I was envious of the boastful,
   When I saw the prosperity of the ⚓wicked.
   4For there are no pangs in their death,
   But their strength is firm.
    5⚓They are not in trouble as other men,
   Nor are they plagued like other men.
    6Therefore pride serves as their necklace;
   Violence covers them ⚓like a garment.
    7⚓Their eyes bulge with abundance;
   They have more than heart could wish.
    8⚓They scoff and speak wickedly concerning oppression;
   They ⚓speak loftily.
    9They set their mouth ⚓against the heavens,
   And their tongue walks through the earth.
   10Therefore his people return here,
   ⚓And waters of a full cup are drained by them.
    11And they say, ⚓“How does God know?
   And is there knowledge in the Most High?”
    12Behold, these are the ungodly,
   Who are always at ease;
   They increase in riches.
    13Surely I have cleansed my heart in⚓vain,
   And washed my hands in innocence.
    14For all day long I have been plagued,
   And chastened every morning.
   15If I had said, “I will speak thus,”
   Behold, I would have been untrue to the generation of Your children.
    16When I thought how to understand this,
   It was too painful for me—
    17Until I went into the sanctuary of God;
   Then I understood their ⚓end.
   18Surely ⚓You set them in slippery places;
   You cast them down to destruction.
    19Oh, how they are brought to desolation, as in a moment!
   They are utterly consumed with terrors.
    20As a dream when one awakes,
   So, Lord, when You awake,
   You shall despise their image.
   21Thus my heart was grieved,
   And I was vexed in my mind.
    22⚓I was so foolish and ignorant;
   I was like a beast before You.
    23Nevertheless I am continually with You;
   You hold me by my right hand.
    24⚓You will guide me with Your counsel,
   And afterward receive me to glory.
   25⚓Whom have I in heaven but You?
   And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You.
    26⚓My flesh and my heart fail;
   But God is the strength of my heart and my ⚓portion forever.
   27For indeed, ⚓those who are far from You shall perish;
   You have destroyed all those who desert You for harlotry.
    28But it is good for me to ⚓draw near to God;
   I have put my trust in the Lord God,
   That I may ⚓declare all Your works.
