PSAL. LXXIII.
1 The Prophet preuailing in a Temptation,
2 sheweth the occasion thereof, the prosperitie
of the wicked: 13 The wound giuen
thereby, diffidence. 15 The victory ouer it,
knowledge of Gods purpose, in destroying of
the wicked and sustaining the righteous.
¶ A Psalme note of Asaph.
1
noteTruely God is good to Israel,
euen to such as are note of
a cleane heart.
2
But as for mee, my
feete were almost gone:
my steps had well-nigh slipt.
3
noteFor I was enuious at the foolish,
when I sawe the prosperity of the
wicked.
4
For there are no bands in their
death: but their strength is note firme.
5
They are not note in trouble as other
men: neither are they plagued note like
other men.
6
Therefore pride compasseth them
about as a chaine: violence couereth
them as a garment.
7
Their eies stand out with fatnes:
note they haue more then heart could wish.
8
They are corrupt, and speake wickedly
concerning oppression: they speake
loftily.
9
They set their mouth against the
heauens; and their tongue walketh
through the earth.
The description of the wicked.
10
Therefore his people returne hither:
and waters of a full cup are wrung
out to them.
11
And they say, How doth God
know? and is there knowledge in the
most High?
12
Behold, these are the vngodly:
who prosper in the world, they increase
in riches.
13
Uerily I haue cleansed my heart
in vaine, and washed my hands in innocencie.
14
For all the day long haue I bene
plagued, and note chastened euery morning.
15
If I say, I will speake thus: behold,
I should offend against the generation
of thy children.
16
When I thought to know this,
note it was too painfull for me,
17
Untill I went into the Sanctuarie
of God; then vnderstood I their
end.
18
Surely thou didst set them in slippery
places: thou castedst them downe
into destruction.
19
How are they brought into desolation
as in a moment? they are vtterly
consumed with terrours.
20
As a dreame when one awaketh;
so, O Lord, when thou awakest thou
shalt despise their image.
21
Thus my heart was greeued, and
I was pricked in my reines.
22
So foolish was I, note and ignorant:
I was as a beast note before thee.
23
Neuerthelesse I am continually
with thee: thou hast holden me by my
right hand.
24
Thou shalt guide me with thy
counsell; and afterward receiue me to
glory.
25
Whom haue I in heauen but thee?
and there is none vpon earth that I
desire besides thee.
26
My flesh and my heart faileth:
but God is the note strength of my heart, and
my portion for euer.
27
For loe, they that are farre from
thee, shall perish: thou hast destroyed
all them that goe a whoring from thee.
28
But it is good for me, to drawe
neere to God: I haue put my trust in
the Lord God, that I may declare all
thy workes.
