Psalm 73:1-9 (King James Version)

 ¹Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
 ²But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
 ³For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
 ⁴For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
 ⁵They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
 ⁶Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
 ⁷Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
 ⁸They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
 ⁹They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
