Psalms 73:7

Read in context

Psalms 73:5–9 · Berean Standard Bible

5 They are free of the burdens others carry; they are not afflicted like other men.

6 Therefore pride is their necklace; a garment of violence covers them.

7 From their prosperity proceeds iniquity; the imaginations of their hearts run wild.

8 They mock and speak with malice; with arrogance they threaten oppression.

9 They set their mouths against the heavens, and their tongues strut across the earth.
