PSALM LXXIII.

1 TRULY God. is good to | Israel || Even to such as are of al

clean...heart.

But as for me, my feet. were almost gone ||

My steps had well nigh| slipped.

2 For I was envious at the foolish || When I saw. the pros-peri- ty|

of the wicked.

5 They set their mouth. a-gainst

the heavens ||

And their tongue. walketh | through the earth.

Therefore His people. re-turn... | hither ||

And waters of a full cup. are] wrung... out to them.

6 And they say, How. doth | God ... | know? ||

And is there knowledge|in the|
Most... | High?

Behold, these. | are the un-godly||
Who prosper in the world; .|
they in-crease in riches.

7 Verily I have cleansed. my heart in | vain ||

And washed my hands in innocency;

For all the day long. have|I

been plagued ||

And. chasten- ed every morning.

8 If I say,. I will speak... | thus || Behold, I should offend against the generation | of Thy | children.

When I thought. to know... [this]
It was too... | painful for me;

9 Until I went into the sanctuary | of ... | God |

Then under-stood...|I their end.

Surely Thou didst set them.in| slipper- y places ||

Thou castedst. them down... | into de-struction.

10 How are they brought into desolation as in a moment! || They are utter-ly con-sumed with terrors.

3 The stout-hearted are spoiled, they . have slept their | sleep ||

And none of the men. of might have found their hands. At Thy rebuke, . O God of Jacob || Both the chariot and horse are cast. into a dead... | sleep.

4 Thou, even Thou, . art | to be feared || And who may stand in Thy sight. when once .Thou art | angry? Thou didst cause judgment. to bel heard from heaven ||

The earth. feared, and was still, 5 When God. a- | rose to judgment || To save. all the meek... of the| earth. Surely the wrath. of man shall| praise Thee||

The remainder. of wrath shalt
Thou re-strain.

6 Vow, and pay. unto the Lord your God ||

Let all that be round about Him bring presents unto Him. that] ought Ito be feared.

He shall cut off. the spirit of princes

He is terrible to the kings...! of the earth.

6 Thou hast brought a vine. out of | Egypt |

Thou hast cast out. the heathen and planted it.

Thou preparedst | room be- |fore it || And didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.

7 The hills were covered. with the shadow of it ||

And the boughs thereof. were] like the goodly cedars.

And her branches unto the river.

8 Why hast Thou then broken down her hedges ||

So that all they which pass. |
by the way do pluck her?
The boar out. of the wood doth 2
