2But as for me, my feet almost slipped; my feet almost slipped out from under me
3because I was envious of the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4For they have no pain until their death, but they are strong and well fed.
5They are free from the burdens of other men; they are not afflicted like other men.
6Pride adorns them like a necklace around their neck; violence clothes them like a robe.
7Out of such blindness comes sin; evil thoughts pass through their hearts.
8They mock and speak wickedly; in their arrogance they threaten oppression.
9They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongues march through the earth.
10Therefore his people turn to them and abundant waters are drained out.
11They say, “How does God know? Is there knowledge with the Most High?”
12Take notice: these people are wicked; they are always carefree, becoming richer and richer.
13Surely it is in vain that I have guarded my heart and washed my hands in innocence.
14For all the day long I have been afflicted and disciplined every morning.
15If I had said, “I will say these things,” then I would have betrayed this generation of your children.
16Though I tried to understand these things, it was too difficult for me.
17Then I went into God's sanctuary and came to understand their fate.
18Surely you put them in slippery places; you bring them down to ruin.
19How they become a wilderness in a moment! They come to an end and are finished in awful terrors.
20They are like a dream after one wakes up; Lord, when you arise, you will think nothing of those dreams.
21For my heart was grieved, and I was deeply wounded.
22I was ignorant and lacked insight; I was like a senseless animal before you.
23Yet I am always with you; you hold my right hand.
24You will guide me with your advice and afterward receive me to glory.
25Whom have I in heaven but you? There is no one on earth that I desire but you.
26My flesh and my heart grow weak, but God is the strength of my heart forever.
27Those who are far from you will perish; you will destroy all those who are unfaithful to you.
