Psalms 73:17-23

17But I went into your temple, God. Then I understood what would happen to wicked people in the end.

18Yes, I realized that they are in a dangerous place, where they will easily slip. You will cause them to fall down to their death.

19It will take just a moment to destroy them! Great fear will sweep them away!

20They will completely disappear, like a dream disappears after you wake up. Lord, when you decide to do something, you will forget that they were there!

21I was very upset, and my thoughts were confused.

22I was stupid, and I did not understand you properly. I was no better than an animal.

23But I am always near to you. You hold my right hand, as my guide.
