Psalms 73:12-22

12Behold, these are the wickedH7563;And, being alway at easeH7961, they increase in riches.13SurelyH389 in vain have I cleansed my heartH3824,And washedH7364 my handsH3709 in innocency;14For all the dayH3117 long have I beenH1961 plagued,And chastened every morningH1242.15If I had saidH559, I will speak thus;Behold, I had dealtH898 treacherouslyH898 with the generationH1755 of thy children.16When I thought how I might knowH3045 this,It was too painful for me;17Until I wentH935 into the sanctuaryH4720 of GodH410,And considered their latterH319 endH319.18SurelyH389 thou settest them in slippery places:Thou castest them downH5307 to destruction.19HowH349 areH1961 they becomeH1961 a desolationH8047 in a momentH7281!They areH1961 utterly consumed with terrorsH1091.20As a dreamH2472 when one awaketh,So, O LordH136, when thou awakest, thou wilt despiseH959 their imageH6754.21For my soul was grieved,And I was pricked in my heartH3824:22So brutish wasH1961 I, and ignorant;I wasH1961asa beast before thee.
