BOOK THREE: Psalms 73—89 The Tragedy of the Wicked, and the Blessedness of Trust in God

A Psalm of Asaph.

1 Truly God is good to Israel,
To such as are pure in heart.
2 But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled;
My steps had nearly aslipped. 
3 aFor I was envious of the boastful,
When I saw the prosperity of the bwicked. 
4 For there are no1 pangs in their death,
But their strength is firm. 
5 aThey are not in trouble as other men,
Nor are they plagued like other men. 
6 Therefore pride serves as their necklace;
Violence covers them alike a garment. 
7 aTheir1 eyes bulge with abundance;
They have more than heart could wish. 
8 aThey scoff and speak wickedly concerning oppression;
They bspeak loftily. 
9 They set their mouth aagainst the heavens,
And their tongue walks through the earth. 
10 Therefore his people return here,
aAnd waters of a full cup are drained by them. 
11 And they say, a“How does God know?
And is there knowledge in the Most High?”
