LIBRO III
El destino de los malos
Salmo de Asaf.
73 Ciertamente es bueno Dios para con Israel,
Para con los limpios de corazón.
2 En cuanto a mí, casi se deslizaron mis pies;
Por poco resbalaron mis pasos.
3 Porque tuve envidia de los arrogantes,
Viendo la prosperidad de los impíos.
4 Porque no tienen congojas por su muerte,
Pues su vigor está entero.
5 No pasan trabajos como los otros mortales,
Ni son azotados como los demás hombres.
6 Por tanto, la soberbia los corona;
Se cubren de vestido de violencia.
7 Los ojos se les saltan de gordura;
Logran con creces los antojos del corazón.
8 Se mofan y hablan con maldad de hacer violencia;
Hablan con altanería.
9 Ponen su boca contra el cielo,
Y su lengua pasea la tierra.
10 Por eso Dios hará volver a su pueblo aquí,
Y aguas en abundancia serán extraídas para ellos.
11 Y dicen: ¿Cómo sabe Dios?
¿Y hay conocimiento en el Altísimo?
12 He aquí estos impíos,
Sin ser turbados del mundo, alcanzaron riquezas.
13 Verdaderamente en vano he limpiado mi corazón,
Y lavado mis manos en inocencia;
14 Pues he sido azotado todo el día,
Y castigado todas las mañanas.
15 Si dijera yo: Hablaré como ellos,
He aquí, a la generación de tus hijos engañaría.
16 Cuando pensé para saber esto,
Fue duro trabajo para mí,
17 Hasta que entrando en el santuario de Dios,
Comprendí el fin de ellos.
18 Ciertamente los has puesto en deslizaderos;
En asolamientos los harás caer.
19 ¡Cómo han sido asolados de repente!
Perecieron, se consumieron de terrores.
20 Como sueño del que despierta,
Así, Señor, cuando despertares, menospreciarás su apariencia.
21 Se llenó de amargura mi alma,
Y en mi corazón sentía punzadas.
22 Tan torpe era yo, que no entendía;
Era como una bestia delante de ti.
23 Con todo, yo siempre estuve contigo;
Me tomaste de la mano derecha.
24 Me has guiado según tu consejo,
Y después me recibirás en gloria.
25 ¿A quién tengo yo en los cielos sino a ti?
Y fuera de ti nada deseo en la tierra.
26 Mi carne y mi corazón desfallecen;
Mas la roca de mi corazón y mi porción es Dios para siempre.
27 Porque he aquí, los que se alejan de ti perecerán;
Tú destruirás a todo aquel que de ti se aparta.
28 Pero en cuanto a mí, el acercarme a Dios es el bien;
He puesto en Jehová el Señor mi esperanza,
Para contar todas tus obras.

Book Three
Psalm 73
A Psalm of Asaph.
1 Truly God is [only] good to Israel, even to those who are upright and pure in heart.
2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone, my steps had well-nigh slipped.
3 For I was envious of the foolish and arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4 For they suffer no violent pangs in their death, but their strength is firm.
5 They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they smitten and plagued like other men.
6 Therefore pride is about their necks like a chain; violence covers them like a garment [like a long, luxurious robe].
7 Their eyes stand out with fatness, they have more than heart could wish; and the imaginations of their minds overflow [with follies].
8 They scoff, and wickedly utter oppression; they speak loftily [from on high, maliciously and blasphemously].
9 They set their mouths against and speak down from heaven, and their tongues swagger through the earth [invading even heaven with blasphemy and smearing earth with slanders].(A)
10 Therefore His people return here, and waters of a full cup [offered by the wicked] are [blindly] drained by them.
11 And they say, How does God know? Is there knowledge in the Most High?
12 Behold, these are the ungodly, who always prosper and are at ease in the world; they increase in riches.
13 Surely then in vain have I cleansed my heart and washed my hands in innocency.
14 For all the day long have I been smitten and plagued, and chastened every morning.
15 Had I spoken thus [and given expression to my feelings], I would have been untrue and have dealt treacherously against the generation of Your children.
16 But when I considered how to understand this, it was too great an effort for me and too painful
17 Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then I understood [for I considered] their end.
18 [After all] You do set the [wicked] in slippery places; You cast them down to ruin and destruction.
19 How they become a desolation in a moment! They are utterly consumed with terrors!
20 As a dream [which seems real] until one awakens, so, O Lord, when You arouse Yourself [to take note of the wicked], You will despise their outward show.
21 For my heart was grieved, embittered, and in a state of ferment, and I was pricked in my heart [as with the sharp fang of an adder].
22 So foolish, stupid, and brutish was I, and ignorant; I was like a beast before You.
23 Nevertheless I am continually with You; You do hold my right hand.
24 You will guide me with Your counsel, and afterward receive me to honor and glory.
25 Whom have I in heaven but You? And I have no delight or desire on earth besides You.
26 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the Rock and firm Strength of my heart and my Portion forever.
27 For behold, those who are far from You shall perish; You will destroy all who are false to You and like [spiritual] harlots depart from You.
28 But it is good for me to draw near to God; I have put my trust in the Lord God and made Him my refuge, that I may tell of all Your works.
