18 Indeed, You put them in slippery places;You make them fall into ruin.
19 How suddenly they become a desolation!They come to an end, swept away by terrors.
20 Like one waking from a dream,Lord, when arising, You will despise their image.
21 When I became embitteredand my innermost being was wounded,
22 I was stupid and didn’t understand;I was an unthinking animal toward You.
23 Yet I am always with You;You hold my right hand.
24 You guide me with Your counsel,and afterward You will take me up in glory.
