| 73:1 | Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart. |
| 73:2 | But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped. |
| 73:3 | For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. |
| 73:4 | For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm. |
| 73:5 | They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men. |
| 73:6 | Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment. |
| 73:7 | Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish. |
| 73:8 | They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily. |
| 73:9 | They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth. |
| 73:10 | Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them. |
| 73:11 | And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High? |
| 73:12 | Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches. |
| 73:13 | Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency. |
| 73:14 | For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning. |
| 73:15 | If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children. |
| 73:16 | When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me; |
| 73:17 | Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end. |
| 73:18 | Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction. |
| 73:19 | How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors. |
| 73:20 | As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image. |
| 73:21 | Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins. |
| 73:22 | So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee. |
| 73:23 | Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand. |
| 73:24 | Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. |
| 73:25 | Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee. |
| 73:26 | My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever. |
| 73:27 | For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee. |
| 73:27 | 遠離你的、必要死亡．凡離棄你行邪淫的、你都滅絕了。 |
| 73:27 | 远离你的，必要死亡。凡离弃你行邪淫的，你都灭绝了。 |
| exo:34:15 | Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat of his sacrifice; |
| num:15:39 | And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do them; and that ye seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go a whoring: |
| jug:8:27 | And Gideon made an ephod thereof, and put it in his city, even in Ophrah: and all Israel went thither a whoring after it: which thing became a snare unto Gideon, and to his house. |
| jug:8:33 | And it came to pass, as soon as Gideon was dead, that the children of Israel turned again, and went a whoring after Baalim, and made Baalberith their god. |
| psm:106:39 | Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions. |
| COBL | |
| 73:28 | But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works. |
