Psalms 73:2-12

2But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had almost slipped. 3For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. 4For there are no pangs in their death: but their strength is firm.1 5They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they afflicted like other men.23 6Therefore pride surroundeth them as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment. 7Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.4 8They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily. 9They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth. 10Therefore his people return here: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them. 11And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High? 12Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.
