Psalms 73:1-6 Good News Bible (GNB)

1. God is indeed good to Israel,to those who have pure hearts.

2. But I had nearly lost confidence;my faith was almost gone

3. because I was jealous of the proudwhen I saw that things go well for the wicked.

4. They do not suffer pain;they are strong and healthy.

5. They do not suffer as other people do;they do not have the troubles that others have.

6. And so they wear pride like a necklaceand violence like a robe;
