Psalm 73:1-3
EasyEnglish Bible

This is a psalm that Asaph wrote.

God has helped me to understand[a]

73 God is truly good to the people of Israel,
    to people who want to serve him honestly.
2 But this is what happened to me:
I nearly slipped and fell over.
    I could no longer stand properly.
3 When I saw that wicked people had plenty of things,
    I was jealous of those proud people.

Footnotes

  1. 73:1 This is a psalm by Asaph, or his group. The writer saw that bad people often had plenty of money. They did not have trouble in their lives. Would it be better for him to be bad? Then he went into God's house. There he understood that bad people were not really in a good, safe place, as it seemed. God would take care of his own people, even if they had problems.
