Psalms 73:2-14

2But as for me, my feetH7272 were almost gone;My steps had well nigh slipped.3For I was envious at the arrogant,When I sawH7200 the prosperity of the wickedH7563.4For there are no pangs in their deathH4194;But their strength is firm.5They are not in troubleH5999 asothermenH120;Neither are they plagued likeothermenH120.6ThereforeH3651 prideH1346 is as a chain about their neck;ViolenceH2555 covereth them as a garmentH7897.7Their eyesH5869 stand out with fatness:They have more than heartH3824 could wish.8They scoff, and in wickednessH7451 utter oppressionH6233:They speakH1696 loftily.9They have set their mouthH6310 in the heavensH8064,And their tongueH3956 walketh through the earthH776.10ThereforeH3651 his peopleH5971 returnH7725 hither:And watersH4325 of a fullH4392cupare drainedH4680 by them.11And they sayH559, HowH349 doth GodH410 knowH3045?And is there knowledge in the Most High?12Behold, these are the wickedH7563;And, being alway at easeH7961, they increase in riches.13SurelyH389 in vain have I cleansed my heartH3824,And washedH7364 my handsH3709 in innocency;14For all the dayH3117 long have I beenH1961 plagued,And chastened every morningH1242.
