so[a] no one has power over the time of their death.

And under falsehood we have hidden ourselves.”

Psalm 73:18-28
New King James Version
18 Surely (A)You set them in slippery places;
You cast them down to destruction.
19 Oh, how they are brought to desolation, as in a moment!
They are utterly consumed with terrors.
20 As a dream when one awakes,
So, Lord, when You awake,
You shall despise their image.
21 Thus my heart was grieved,
And I was [a]vexed in my mind.
22 (B)I was so foolish and ignorant;
I was like a beast before You.
23 Nevertheless I am continually with You;
You hold me by my right hand.
24 (C)You will guide me with Your counsel,
And afterward receive me to glory.
25 (D)Whom have I in heaven but You?
And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You.
26 (E)My flesh and my heart fail;
But God is the [b]strength of my heart and my (F)portion forever.
27 For indeed, (G)those who are far from You shall perish;
You have destroyed all those who [c]desert You for harlotry.
28 But it is good for me to (H)draw near to God;
I have put my trust in the Lord God,
That I may (I)declare all Your works.
