Psalms 73:17-28

17until I went into athe sanctuary of God;
then I discerned their bend.
18 Truly you set them in cslippery places;
you make them fall to ruin.
19How they are destroyed din a moment,
swept away utterly by eterrors!
20Like fa dream when one awakes,
O Lord, when gyou rouse yourself, you despise them as phantoms.
21When my soul was embittered,
when I was pricked in heart,
22I was hbrutish and ignorant;
I was like ia beast toward you.
23 Nevertheless, I am continually with you;
you jhold my right hand.
24You kguide me with your counsel,
and afterward you will lreceive me to glory.
25 mWhom have I in heaven but you?
And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you.
26 nMy flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is othe strength
Hebrew rock
of my heart and my qportion rforever.
27 For behold, those who are sfar from you shall perish;
you put an end to everyone who is tunfaithful to you.
28But for me it is good to ube near God;
I have made the Lord God my vrefuge,
that I may wtell of all your works.
