Psalms 73:2-9 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

2. But as for me, my feet almost slipped;my steps nearly went astray.

3. For I envied the arrogant;I saw the prosperity of the wicked.

4. They have an easy time until they die, and their bodies are well fed.

5. They are not in trouble like others;they are not afflicted like most people.

6. Therefore, pride is their necklace,and violence covers them like a garment.

7. Their eyes bulge out from fatness;the imaginations of their hearts run wild.

8. They mock, and they speak maliciously;they arrogantly threaten oppression.

9. They set their mouths against heaven,and their tongues strut across the earth.
