| 73:1 | Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart. |
| 73:2 | But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped. |
| 73:3 | For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. |
| 73:4 | For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm. |
| 73:5 | They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men. |
| 73:6 | Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment. |
| 73:7 | Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish. |
| 73:8 | They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily. |
| 73:9 | They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth. |
| 73:10 | Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them. |
| 73:11 | And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High? |
| 73:12 | Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches. |
| 73:13 | Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency. |
| 73:14 | For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning. |
| 73:15 | If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children. |
| 73:16 | When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me; |
| 73:17 | Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end. |
| 73:18 | Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction. |
| 73:19 | How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors. |
| 73:20 | As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image. |
| 73:21 | Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins. |
| 73:22 | So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee. |
| 73:23 | Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand. |
| 73:24 | Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. |
| 73:25 | Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee. |
| 73:26 | My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever. |
| 73:27 | For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee. |
| 73:28 | But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works. |

| 73:28 | ואני קרבת אלהים לי טוב שׁתי באדני יהוה מחסי לספר כל מלאכותיך׃ |
| 73:1 | 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, |
| 73:2 | As nothing, have my steps slipped, For I have been envious of the boastful, |
| 73:3 | The peace of the wicked I see, That there are no bands at their death, |
| 73:4 | And their might `is' firm. |
| 73:5 | In the misery of mortals they are not, And with common men they are not plagued. |
| 73:6 | Therefore hath pride encircled them, Violence covereth them as a dress. |
| 73:7 | Their eye hath come out from fat. The imaginations of the heart transgressed; |
| 73:8 | They do corruptly, And they speak in the wickedness of oppression, From on high they speak. |
| 73:9 | They have set in the heavens their mouth, And their tongue walketh in the earth. |
| 73:10 | Therefore do His people return hither, And waters of fulness are wrung out to them. |
| 73:11 | And they have said, `How hath God known? And is there knowledge in the Most High?' |
| 73:12 | Lo, these `are' the wicked and easy ones of the age, They have increased strength. |
| 73:13 | Only -- a vain thing! I have purified my heart, And I wash in innocency my hands, |
| 73:14 | And I am plagued all the day, And my reproof `is' every morning. |
| 73:15 | If I have said, `I recount thus,' Lo, a generation of Thy sons I have deceived. |
| 73:16 | And I think to know this, Perverseness it `is' in mine eyes, |
| 73:17 | Till I come in to the sanctuaries of God, I attend to their latter end. |
| 73:18 | Only, in slippery places Thou dost set them, Thou hast caused them to fall to desolations. |
| 73:19 | How have they become a desolation as in a moment, They have been ended -- consumed from terrors. |
| 73:20 | As a dream from awakening, O Lord, In awaking, their image Thou despisest. |
| 73:21 | For my heart doth show itself violent, And my reins prick themselves, |
| 73:22 | And I am brutish, and do not know. A beast I have been with Thee. |
| 73:23 | And I `am' continually with Thee, Thou hast laid hold on my right hand. |
| 73:24 | With Thy counsel Thou dost lead me, And after honour dost receive me. |
| 73:25 | Whom have I in the heavens? And with Thee none I have desired in earth. |
| 73:26 | Consumed hath been my flesh and my heart, The rock of my heart and my portion `is' God to the age. |
| 73:27 | For, lo, those far from Thee do perish, Thou hast cut off every one, Who is going a whoring from Thee. |
| 73:28 | And I -- nearness of God to me `is' good, I have placed in the Lord Jehovah my refuge, To recount all Thy works! |
