1(73) A Psalm for Asaph. How good is God to Israel, to the upright in heart!
2But my feet were almost overthrown; my goings very nearly slipped.
3For I was jealous of the transgressors, beholding the tranquility of sinners.
4For there is no sign of reluctance in their death: and they have firmness under their affliction.
5They are not in the troubles of other men; and they shall not be scourged with other men.
6Therefore pride has possessed them; they have clothed themselves with their injustice and ungodliness.
7Their injustice shall go forth as out of fatness: they have fulfilled their intention.
8They have taken counsel and spoken in wickedness: they have uttered unrighteousness loftily.
