Psalms 73:17 in context

Psalms 73:14–20

14

For all day long I have been plagued,

and punished every morning.

15

behold, I would have betrayed the generation of your children.

16

17
Selected verse

until I entered God’s sanctuary,

and considered their latter end.

18

You throw them down to destruction.

19

How they are suddenly destroyed!

They are completely swept away with terrors.

20

As a dream when one wakes up,

so, Lord, when you awake, you will despise their fantasies.
