Psalm
Chapters 73:3-9
New International Version Anglicized
3For I envied the arrogantwhen I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4They have no struggles;their bodies are healthy and strong.
5They are free from common human burdens;they are not plagued by human ills.
6Therefore pride is their necklace;they clothe themselves with violence.
7From their callous hearts comes iniquity;their evil imaginations have no limits.
8They scoff, and speak with malice;with arrogance they threaten oppression.
9Their mouths lay claim to heaven,and their tongues take possession of the earth.
