Psalms 73:15-25

¹⁵If I had said, I will speak thus; Behold, I had dealt treacherously with the generation of thy children.

¹⁶When I thought how I might know this, It was too painful for me;

¹⁷Until I went into the sanctuary of God, And considered their latter end.

¹⁸Surely thou settest them in slippery places: Thou castest them down to destruction.

¹⁹How are they become a desolation in a moment! They are utterly consumed with terrors.

²⁰As a dream when one awaketh, So, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou wilt despise their image.

²¹For my soul was grieved, And I was pricked in my heart:

²²So brutish was I, and ignorant; I was as a beast before thee.

²³Nevertheless I am continually with thee: Thou hast holden my right hand.

²⁴Thou wilt guide me with thy counsel, And afterward receive me to glory.

²⁵Whom have I in heaven but thee? And there is none upon earth that I desire besides thee.
