Amplified Bible
Psalms 73:3-12
3For I was envious of the arrogant As I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4For there are no pains in their death, Their body is fat and pampered.
5They are not in trouble as other men, Nor are they plagued like mankind.
6Therefore pride is their necklace; Violence covers them like a garment [like a long, luxurious robe].
7Their eye bulges from fatness [they have more than the heart desires]; The imaginations of their mind run riot [with foolishness].
8They mock and wickedly speak of oppression; They speak loftily [with malice].
9They set their mouth against the heavens, And their tongue swaggers through the earth.
10Therefore his people return to this place, And waters of abundance [offered by the irreverent] are [blindly] drunk by them.
11They say, “How does God know? Is there knowledge [of us] with the Most High?”
12Behold, these are the ungodly, Who always prosper and are at ease [in the world]; they have increased in wealth.
