Psalms 73:27

25 ^aWhom have I in heaven but You?
And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You.

26 ^aMy flesh and my heart fail;
But God is the¹ strength of my heart and my ^bportion forever.

27 For indeed, ^athose who are far from You shall perish;
You have destroyed all those who¹ desert You for harlotry.

28 But it is good for me to ^adraw near to God;
I have put my trust in the Lord GOD,
That I may ^bdeclare all Your works.

Psalms 73:27-28

The lot of apostates, described by a figure of frequent use (Jeremiah 3:1, Jeremiah 3:3; Ezekiel 23:35), is contrasted with his, who finds happiness in nearness to God (James 4:8), and his delightful work the declaration of His praise.
