fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData A Psalm of Asaph. Only -- good to Israel `is' God, to the clean of heart. And I -- as a little thing, My feet have been turned aside, |
| 2 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData As nothing, have my steps slipped, For I have been envious of the boastful, |
| 3 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData The peace of the wicked I see, That there are no bands at their death, |
| 4 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData And their might `is' firm. |
| 5 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData In the misery of mortals they are not, And with common men they are not plagued. |
| 6 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Therefore hath pride encircled them, Violence covereth them as a dress. |
| 7 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Their eye hath come out from fat. The imaginations of the heart transgressed; |
| 8 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData They do corruptly, And they speak in the wickedness of oppression, From on high they speak. |
| 9 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData They have set in the heavens their mouth, And their tongue walketh in the earth. |
| 10 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Therefore do His people return hither, And waters of fulness are wrung out to them. |
| 11 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData And they have said, `How hath God known? And is there knowledge in the Most High?' |
| 12 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Lo, these `are' the wicked and easy ones of the age, They have increased strength. |
| 13 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Only -- a vain thing! I have purified my heart, And I wash in innocency my hands, |
| 14 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData And I am plagued all the day, And my reproof `is' every morning. |
| 15 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData If I have said, `I recount thus,' Lo, a generation of Thy sons I have deceived. |
| 16 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData And I think to know this, Perverseness it `is' in mine eyes, |
| 17 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Till I come in to the sanctuaries of God, I attend to their latter end. |
| 18 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Only, in slippery places Thou dost set them, Thou hast caused them to fall to desolations. |
| 19 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData How have they become a desolation as in a moment, They have been ended -- consumed from terrors. |
| 20 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData As a dream from awakening, O Lord, In awaking, their image Thou despisest. |
| 21 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData For my heart doth show itself violent, And my reins prick themselves, |
| 22 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData And I am brutish, and do not know. A beast I have been with Thee. |
| 23 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData And I `am' continually with Thee, Thou hast laid hold on my right hand. |
| 24 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData With Thy counsel Thou dost lead me, And after honour dost receive me. |
| 25 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Whom have I in the heavens? And with Thee none I have desired in earth. |
| 26 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Consumed hath been my flesh and my heart, The rock of my heart and my portion `is' God to the age. |
| 27 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData For, lo, those far from Thee do perish, Thou hast cut off every one, Who is going a whoring from Thee. |
| 28 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData And I -- nearness of God to me `is' good, I have placed in the Lord Jehovah my refuge, To recount all Thy works! |
