22So brutish was I, and ignorant; I was as a beast before thee. 23Nevertheless I am continually with thee: Thou hast holden my right hand. 24Thou wilt guide me with thy counsel, And afterward receive me to glory. 25Whom have I in heaven but thee ? And there is none upon earth that I desire besides thee. 26My flesh and my heart faileth; But God is the strength of my heart and my portion for ever. 27For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: Thou hast destroyed all them that play the harlot, departing from thee. 28But it is good for me to draw near unto God: I have made the Lord Jehovah my refuge, That I may tell of all thy works.
