Bible verse
I was senseless and ignorant; I was a brute beast before You.
Psalm 73:22 · BSB
The verses around it, from Psalm 73.
18 Surely You set them on slick ground; You cast them down into ruin.
19 How suddenly they are laid waste, completely swept away by terrors!
20 Like one waking from a dream, so You, O Lord, awaken and despise their form.
21 When my heart was grieved and I was pierced within,
22 I was senseless and ignorant; I was a brute beast before You.
23 Yet I am always with You; You hold my right hand.
24 You guide me with Your counsel, and later receive me in glory.
25 Whom have I in heaven but You? And on earth I desire no one besides You.
26 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
