Psalms 73:2-15

2But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
3For I was envious at the arrogant, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
5They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
6Therefore pride is as a chain about their neck; violence covereth them as a garment.
7Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
8They scoff, and in wickedness utter oppression: they speak loftily.
9They have set their mouth in the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
10Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out by them.
11And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the Most High?
12Behold, these are the wicked; and, being alway at ease, they increase in riches.
13Surely in vain have I cleansed my heart, and washed my hands in innocency;
14For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
15If I had said, I will speak thus; behold, I had dealt treacherously with the generation of thy children.
