God Is My Strength and Portion Forever
A Psalm of 73:0 See Ps. 50, titleAsaph.
to those who are 73:1 See Ps. 24:4pure in heart.
2But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled,
my steps had nearly slipped.
4For they have no pangs until death;
their bodies are fat and sleek.
5They are not in trouble as others are;
they are not 73:5 [Isa. 53:4]stricken like the rest of mankind.
6Therefore pride is 73:6 [Judg. 8:26] their necklace;
violence covers them as 73:6 [Ps. 109:18]a garment.
their hearts overflow with follies.
8They scoff and 73:8 [2 Pet. 2:18; Jude 16]speak with malice;
loftily they threaten oppression.
9They set their mouths against the heavens,
and their tongue struts through the earth.
10Therefore his people turn back to them,
and find 73:10 [Job 15:16]no fault in them.73:10 Probable reading; Hebrew the waters of a full cup are drained by them
Is there knowledge in the Most High?”
12Behold, these are the wicked;
always at ease, they 73:12 [ver. 3]increase in riches.
and 73:13 See Ps. 26:6washed my hands in innocence.
15If I had said, “I will speak thus,”
I would have betrayed 73:15 [Ps. 14:5]the generation of your children.
16But when I thought how to understand this,
it seemed to me 73:16 Eccles. 8:17a wearisome task,
then I discerned their 73:17 Ps. 37:38end.
you make them fall to ruin.
19How they are destroyed 73:19 [Num. 16:21] in a moment,
swept away utterly by 73:19 See Job 18:11terrors!
O Lord, when 73:20 Ps. 78:65you rouse yourself, you despise them as phantoms.
21When my soul was embittered,
when I was pricked in heart,
23Nevertheless, I am continually with you;
and afterward you will 73:24 See Ps. 49:15receive me to glory.
And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you.
but God is 73:26 Ps. 18:2the strength73:26 Hebrew rock of my heart and my 73:26 See Ps. 16:5portion 73:26 [Dan. 12:3]forever.
27For behold, those who are 73:27 Ps. 119:155far from you shall perish;
you put an end to everyone who is 73:27 Ps. 106:39; Ex. 34:15; Num. 15:39; James 4:4unfaithful to you.
28But for me it is good to 73:28 James 4:8; [Heb. 10:22] be near God;
I have made the Lord God my 73:28 See Ps. 14:6refuge,
that I may 73:28 See Ps. 118:17tell of all your works.
