17. Until I came into the sanctuary of God; Then I perceived their end.
18. Surely You set them in slippery places; You cast them down to destruction.
19. How they are destroyed in a moment! They are utterly swept away by sudden terrors!
20. Like a dream when one awakes, O Lord, when aroused, You will despise their form.
21. When my heart was embittered And I was pierced within,
22. Then I was senseless and ignorant; I was like a beast before You.
23. Nevertheless I am continually with You; You have taken hold of my right hand.
