19. How quickly they are devastated,utterly destroyed by terrors!
20. As quickly as a dream departs from someone waking up, my Lord,when you are stirred up, you make them disappear.
21. When my heart was bitter,when I was all cut up inside,
22. I was stupid and ignorant.I acted like nothing but an animal toward you.
23. But I was still always with you!You held my strong hand!
24. You have guided me with your advice;later you will receive me with glory.
25. Do I have anyone else in heaven?There’s nothing on earth I desire except you.
26. My body and my heart fail,but God is my heart’s rock and my share forever.
27. Look! Those far from you die;you annihilate all those who are unfaithful to you.
28. But me? It’s good for me to be near God.I have taken my refuge in you, my Lord God,so I can talk all about your works!
