New Testament

Psalms 73:2-11 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

2. But as for me, my feet were almost gone.My steps had nearly slipped.

3. For I was envious of the arrogant,when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.

4. For there are no struggles in their death,but their strength is firm.

5. They are free from burdens of men,neither are they plagued like other men.

6. Therefore pride is like a chain around their neck.Violence covers them like a garment.

7. Their eyes bulge with fat.Their minds pass the limits of conceit.

8. They scoff and speak with malice.In arrogance, they threaten oppression.

9. They have set their mouth in the heavens.Their tongue walks through the earth.

10. Therefore their people return to them,and they drink up waters of abundance.

11. They say, “How does God know?Is there knowledge in the Most High?”
