New Living Translation

Psalms 73:4-13 New Living Translation (NLT)

4. They seem to live such painless lives;their bodies are so healthy and strong.

5. They don’t have troubles like other people;they’re not plagued with problems like everyone else.

6. They wear pride like a jeweled necklaceand clothe themselves with cruelty.

7. These fat cats have everythingtheir hearts could ever wish for!

8. They scoff and speak only evil;in their pride they seek to crush others.

9. They boast against the very heavens,and their words strut throughout the earth.

10. And so the people are dismayed and confused,drinking in all their words.

11. “What does God know?” they ask.“Does the Most High even know what’s happening?”

12. Look at these wicked people—enjoying a life of ease while their riches multiply.

13. Did I keep my heart pure for nothing?Did I keep myself innocent for no reason?
