New Testament

Psalms 73:2-10 Common English Bible (CEB)

2. But me? My feet had almost stumbled;my steps had nearly slipped

3. because I envied the arrogant;I observed how the wicked are well off:

4. They suffer no pain;their bodies are fit and strong.

5. They are never in trouble;they aren’t weighed down like other people.

6. That’s why they wear arrogance like a necklace,why violence covers them like clothes.

7. Their eyes bulge out from eating so well;their hearts overflow with delusions.

8. They scoff and talk so cruel;from their privileged positionsthey plan oppression.

9. Their mouths dare to speak against heaven!Their tongues roam the earth!

10. That’s why people keep going back to them,keep approving what they say.
