3 For I was aenvious of the 1arrogant

As I saw the bprosperity of the wicked.

4 For there are no pains in their death,

And their 1body is fat.

5 They are anot 1in trouble as other 2men,

Nor are they bplagued 3like mankind.

6 Therefore pride is atheir necklace;

The bgarment of violence covers them.

7 Their eye 1bulges from afatness;

The imaginations of their heart 2run riot.

8 They amock and 1wickedly speak of oppression;

They bspeak from on high.

9 They have aset their mouth 1against the heavens,

And their tongue 2parades through the earth.

10 Therefore 1his people return to this place,

And waters of aabundance are 2drunk by them.

11 They say, “aHow does God know?

And is there knowledge 1with the Most High?”

12 Behold, athese are the wicked;

And always bat ease, they have increased in wealth.

13 Surely ain vain I have 1kept my heart pure

And bwashed my hands in innocence;

14 For I have been stricken aall day long

And 1bchastened every morning.
