73A Psalm of Asaph. Truly God is good to Israel, To such as are pure in heart.H4210H623H430H2896H3478H1249H38242But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled; My steps had nearly slipped.H7272H4592H5186H5186H838H369H82103For I was envious of the boastful, When I saw the prosperity of the wicked.H7065H1984H7200H7965H75634For there are no pangs in their death, But their strength is firm.H2784H4194H193H12775They are not in trouble as other men, Nor are they plagued like other men.H5999H582H5060H5973H1206Therefore pride serves as their necklace; Violence covers them like a garment.H1346H6059H2555H5848H78977Their eyes bulge with abundance; They have more than heart could wish.H5869H3318H2459H5674H3824H49068They scoff and speak wickedly concerning oppression; They speak loftily.H4167H1696H7451H6233H1696H47919They set their mouth against the heavens, And their tongue walks through the earth.H8371H6310H8064H3956H1980H77610Therefore his people return here, And waters of a full cup are drained by them.H5971H7725H7725H1988H4325H4392H468011And they say, "How does God know? And is there knowledge in the Most High?"H559H410H3045H3426H1844H594512Behold, these are the ungodly, Who are always at ease; They increase in riches.H7563H7961H5769H7685H242813Surely I have cleansed my heart in vain, And washed my hands in innocence.H2135H3824H7385H7364H3709H535614For all day long I have been plagued, And chastened every morning.H3117H5060H8433H124215If I had said, "I will speak thus," Behold, I would have been untrue to the generation of Your children.H559H5608H3644H898H1755H112116When I thought how to understand this, It was too painful for me—H2803H3045H5999H586917Until I went into the sanctuary of God; Then I understood their end.H935H4720H410H995H31918Surely You set them in slippery places; You cast them down to destruction.H7896H2513H5307H487619Oh, how they are brought to desolation, as in a moment! They are utterly consumed with terrors.H8047H7281H5486H8552H109120As a dream when one awakes, So, Lord, when You awake, You shall despise their image.H2472H6974H136H5782H959H675421Thus my heart was grieved, And I was vexed in my mind.H3824H2556H8150H362922I was so foolish and ignorant; I was like a beast before You.H1198H3045H92923Nevertheless I am continually with You; You hold me by my right hand.H8548H270H3225H302724You will guide me with Your counsel, And afterward receive me to glory.H5148H6098H310H3947H351925Whom have I in heaven but You? And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You.H8064H776H265426My flesh and my heart fail; But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.H7607H3824H3615H430H6697H3824H2506H576927For indeed, those who are far from You shall perish; You have destroyed all those who desert You for harlotry.H7369H6H6789H218128But it is good for me to draw near to God; I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, That I may declare all Your works.H589H2896H7132H430H7896H4268H136H3069H5608H4399
Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
