Context of Psalms 73:24
22I was stupid, and I did not understand. I was like a dumb animal in your presence. 23Yet, I am always with you. You hold on to my right hand. With your advice you guide me, and in the end you will take me to glory. 25As long as I have you, I don’t need anyone else in heaven or on earth. 26My body and mind may waste away, but God remains the foundation of my life and my inheritance forever.
