Psalm 73:23-28
New King James Version
23 Nevertheless I am continually with You;
You hold me by my right hand.
24 (A)You will guide me with Your counsel,
And afterward receive me to glory.
25 (B)Whom have I in heaven but You?
And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You.
26 (C)My flesh and my heart fail;
But God is the [a]strength of my heart and my (D)portion forever.
27 For indeed, (E)those who are far from You shall perish;
You have destroyed all those who [b]desert You for harlotry.
28 But it is good for me to (F)draw near to God;
I have put my trust in the Lord God,
That I may (G)declare all Your works.

Psalm 73:23-28
Young's Literal Translation
23 And I [am] continually with Thee, Thou hast laid hold on my right hand.
24 With Thy counsel Thou dost lead me, And after honour dost receive me.
25 Whom have I in the heavens? And with Thee none I have desired in earth.
26 Consumed hath been my flesh and my heart, The rock of my heart and my portion [is] God to the age.
27 For, lo, those far from Thee do perish, Thou hast cut off every one, Who is going a whoring from Thee.
28 And I -- nearness of God to me [is] good, I have placed in the Lord Jehovah my refuge, To recount all Thy works!

New American Standard Bible
23 Nevertheless (A)I am continually with You;
You have taken hold of my right hand.
24 You will (B)guide me with Your plan,
And afterward (C)receive me [a]to glory.
25 (D)Whom do I have in heaven but You?
And with You, I desire nothing on earth.
26 My (E)flesh and my heart may fail,
But God is the [b]strength of my heart and my (F)portion forever.
27 For, behold, (G)those who are far from You will (H)perish;
You have destroyed all those who [c](I)are unfaithful to You.
28 But as for me, (J)the nearness of God is good for me;
I have made the Lord [d]God my (K)refuge,
So that I may (L)tell of all Your works.
