Psalms 73:1-7 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

1. God is truly good to Israel,especially to everyonewith a pure heart.

2. But I almost stumbled and fell,

3. because it made me jealousto see proud and evil peopleand to watch them prosper.

4. They never have to suffer,they stay healthy,

5. and they don't have troubleslike everyone else.

6. Their pride is like a necklace,and they commit sin more oftenthan they dress themselves.

7. Their eyes bulge with fat,and their minds are floodedwith foolish thoughts.
