Ps 73

Instrumental music by Asaph (collector).

1 it is a good thing for all Elohim in IsraEl, to be pure in their inner-hearts:

2 you, who should be on your feet, spread out to pour out things (as libation), and little by little, nothing of that exists in your goings/steps; - 

3 - when, the wicked are jealous of you, as they see the prosperous-peace, upon which you are celebrating/giving praise.

4 as robust/strong as they were, so, shall be the might of their fetters/chain in the place of death.

5 the toiling/exertion of mortal-men, is from Adam, it is touching/affecting us and will (still) be WITH us. 

6 they are like giants who are shrouded/covered with garments of arrogance for violence;

7 they go out and pass across our fat-creams with their eyes on them, and its picture/image is on their inner-hearts:

8 they rehearse to jeer/deride those in elevated places; they rehearse the evil of their own oppression/exploitation;

9 but having walked all over the sky and earth, their tongues and mouth are left forlorn.

10 our people shall be restored back here, just like water that is squeezed out in full. 

11 it is said, who can know the opinion/knowledge of the Most HIGH (Elyon)? Will there exist such a Main-Leader? (Job 21:22)

12 because the forces/resources of the wicked are enlarging and their tranquility is like unto eternity -

13 they wash their palm in vain rather than being cleared/exonerated by innocency of their inner-heart. 

14 A correction/rebuke to someone at dawn will touch/affect him all day:

15 it is said, according to how, they cover up/dealt treacherously, it has been reckoned for the generation of their children; - 

16 like; how toiling/weariness was plaited by what they knew through their eyes.

17 so, the Main-Leader (el) has to go into the consecrated place/sanctuary, to understand our future/latter end. 

18 because the portion, through those who had fallen, is to be positioned for destruction;

19 and in a moment, they finished up, and were terminate in sudden-terror. what a shocking ruin!

20 however, like waking up from a dream, Adonay will despise this phantom/illusive show, when it reaches the peak;

21 our leavened (bread) is for our interior-self; but He will SHARPEN/instruct our INNER HEARTS.

22 just as, we are known for burning livestocks/animals (for sacrifice);

23 for our hands to be continually held up from the RIGHT HAND;

24 we will be led/guided by His counsel and He will receive glory afterward;

25 when the ONE in heaven will be pleased with us on earth:

26 as things come to an end, the INNER-HEART, even the INNER-HEART of our leaders (elohim) will be like sharp-Rock and the portion of remnants/survivors will be to eternity.

27 at this crossroad/junction, distance yourself from those who commit adultery and will perish.

28 as for me, in my shelter, I will draw near Jehovah of Elohim, WHO will position/appoint the Adonay for us even to reckon/record His good ministry/business.
