Psalms 73:3-12

3For I envied those who are proud, as I observed the prosperity of the wicked.

4For they suffer no pain; their bodies are strong and well-fed.

5They are immune to the trouble common to men; they do not suffer as other men do.

6Arrogance is their necklace, and violence their clothing.

7Their prosperity causes them to do wrong; their thoughts are sinful.

8They mock and say evil things; they proudly threaten violence.

9They speak as if they rule in heaven, and lay claim to the earth.

10Therefore they have more than enough food to eat, and even suck up the water of the sea.

11They say, “How does God know what we do? Is the sovereign one aware of what goes on?”

12Take a good look! This is what the wicked are like, those who always have it so easy and get richer and richer.
