Context of Psalms 73:24
22I was senseless and ignorant; I was a brute beast before you. 23Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. 25Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. 26My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
