Psalms 73:4-9

4For there are no pains in their death, And their 1body is fat.5They are 2not 3in trouble as other 4men, Nor are they 5plagued 6like mankind.6Therefore pride is 7their necklace; The 8garment of violence covers them.7Their eye 9bulges from 10fatness; The imaginations of their heart 11run riot.8They 12mock and 13wickedly speak of oppression; They 14speak from on high.9They have 15set their mouth 16against the heavens, And their tongue 17parades through the earth.
