17 until I entered God’s sanctuaryand understood what would happen to the wicked.
18 You will definitely put them on a slippery path;you will make them fall into ruin!
19 How quickly they are devastated,utterly destroyed by terrors!
20 As quickly as a dream departs from someone waking up, my Lord,when you are stirred up, you make them disappear.
21 When my heart was bitter,when I was all cut up inside,
22 I was stupid and ignorant.I acted like nothing but an animal toward you.
23 But I was still always with you!You held my strong hand!
