Psalms 73:17-24

17Then I went into your sanctuary, O God, and I finally understood the destiny of the wicked.

18Truly, you put them on a slippery path and send them sliding over the cliff to destruction.

19In an instant they are destroyed, completely swept away by terrors.

20When you arise, O Lord, you will laugh at their silly ideas as a person laughs at dreams in the morning.

21Then I realized that my heart was bitter, and I was all torn up inside.

22I was so foolish and ignorant— I must have seemed like a senseless animal to you.

23Yet I still belong to you; you hold my right hand.

24You guide me with your counsel, leading me to a glorious destiny.
