18. Surely thou settest them in slippery places: thou castest them down to destruction.
19. How are they become a desolation in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.
20. As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.
21. For my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins:
22. So brutish was I, and ignorant; I was as a beast before thee.
23. Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden my right hand.
24. Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.
25. Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
26. My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart and my portion for ever.
27. For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee.
28. But it is good for me to draw near unto God: I have made the Lord GOD my refuge, that I may tell of all thy works.
