7“See the man who would not make

▼Or in his work of destruction
Psalms 73:18-28
18 Truly you set them in islippery places;you make them fall to ruin.
19How they are destroyed jin a moment,
swept away utterly by kterrors!
20Like la dream when one awakes,
O Lord, when myou rouse yourself, you despise them as phantoms.
21When my soul was embittered,
when I was pricked in heart,
22I was nbrutish and ignorant;
I was like oa beast toward you.
23 Nevertheless, I am continually with you;
you phold my right hand.
24You qguide me with your counsel,
and afterward you will rreceive me to glory.
25 sWhom have I in heaven but you?
And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you.
26 tMy flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is uthe strength ▼
▼Hebrew rock
of my heart and my wportion xforever.27 For behold, those who are yfar from you shall perish;
you put an end to everyone who is zunfaithful to you.
28But for me it is good to aabe near God;
I have made the Lord God my abrefuge,
that I may actell of all your works.
Proverbs 14:32

15Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death,and with Sheol we have an agreement,
when the afoverwhelming whip passes through
it will not come to us,
for we have made aglies our refuge,
and in falsehood we have taken shelter”;
Isaiah 28:18
18Then ahyour covenant with death will be annulled,and your agreement with Sheol will not stand;
when the overwhelming scourge passes through,
you will be beaten down by it.
