Psalms 73:18-24

¹⁸You put their feet where there was danger of slipping, so that they go down into destruction.

¹⁹How suddenly are they wasted! fears are the cause of their destruction.

²⁰As a dream when one is awake, they are ended; they are like an image gone out of mind when sleep is over.

²¹My heart was made bitter, and I was pained by the bite of grief:

²²As for me, I was foolish, and without knowledge; I was like a beast before you.

²³But still I am ever with you; you have taken me by my right hand.

²⁴Your wisdom will be my guide, and later you will put me in a place of honour.
