1 Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone;my steps had well-nigh slipped.
3 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4 For there are no bands in their death:but their strength is firm.
5 They are not in trouble as other men;neither are they plagued like other men.
6 Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain;violence covereth them as a garment.
7 Their eyes stand out with fatness:they have more than heart could wish.
