God is indeed good to Israel,
to those clean in
heart. b
2 As for me, my feet had almost
turned aside, c
My steps had nearly been
made to slip. d
3 For I became envious of the
boasters, e
When I would see the very
peace of wicked people. f
4 For they have no deathly
pangs; g
And their paunch is fat. h
5 They are not even in the trouble
of mortal man, i
And they are not plagued
thesameasothermen. j
6 Therefore haughtiness has
served as a necklace to
them; k
Violence envelops them as
a garment. l
7 Their eye has bulged from
fatness; m
They have exceeded the
imaginations of the
heart. n
8 They scoff and speak about
what is bad; o
About defrauding they
speak in an elevated
style. p
9 They have put their mouth in
the very heavens, q
And their tongue itself
walks about in the
earth. r
10 Therefore he brings his people
back hither,
And the waters of what is
full are drained out for
them.
11 And they have said: “How has
God come to know? s
And does there exist

12 Look! These are the wicked,
who are at ease indefinitely.
b
They have increased their
means of maintenance. c
13 Surely it is in vain that I have
cleansed my heart d
And that I wash my hands
in innocence itself. e
14 And I came to be plagued all
day long, f
And my correction is every
morning. g
15 If I had said: “I will tell a story
like that,”
Look! against the generation
of your sons
I should have acted treacherously.
h
16 And I kept considering so as
to know this; i
It was a trouble in my eyes,
17 Until I proceeded to come
into the grand sanctuary
of God. j
I wanted to discern their
future. k
18 Surely on slippery ground is

You have made them fall to
ruins. m
19 Ohowtheyhavebecomean
object of astonishment
as in a moment! n
How they have reached
their end, have been
brought to their finish
through sudden terrors!

O Jehovah, o
So when arousing yourself
you will despise their
very image. p
