Psalm 73:2

« Psalm 72Psalm 73Psalm 74 »

But as for me, ^amy feet had almost stumbled,

My steps ¹had almost slipped.

Psalm 73:3

« Psalm 72Psalm 73Psalm 74 »

For I was ^aenvious of the boastful,

I saw the ^bpeace of the wicked.

Psalm 73:12-14

« Psalm 72Psalm 73Psalm 74 »

Behold, ^athese are the wicked;

And always ^bat ease, they have increased in wealth.

Surely ^ain vain I have ¹kept my heart pure

And ^bwashed my hands in innocence;

For I have been stricken ^aall day long

And ¹^breproved every morning.

Psalm 73:17-26

« Psalm 72Psalm 73Psalm 74 »

Until I came into the ¹^asanctuary of God;

Then I understood their ^bend.

Surely You set them in ^aslippery places;

You cause them to fall to ¹^bdestruction.

How they become ^adesolate in a moment!

They are completely swept away by ^bterrors!

Like a ^adream when one awakes,

O Lord, when ^baroused, You will ^cdespise their ¹form.

When my ^aheart was embittered

And I was ^bpierced ¹within,

Then I was ^asenseless and ignorant;

I was like ¹an ^banimal ²before You.

Nevertheless ^aI am continually with You;

You have taken hold of my right hand.

With Your counsel You will ^alead me,

And afterward ^btake me ¹in glory.

^aWhom have I in heaven but You?

And ¹besides You, I desire nothing on earth.

My ^aflesh and my heart fail,

But God is the rock of my heart and my ^bportion forever.

James 5:11

« James 4James 51 Pet 1 »

11 Behold, we count those ^ablessed who persevere. You have heard of ^bthe ¹perseverance of Job and have seen ^cthe ²outcome of the Lord’s dealings, that ^dthe Lord is full of compassion and is merciful.
