Psalms 73:3-4
Psalms 73:1-5 The Message (MSG)
No doubt about it! God is good— good to good people, good to the good-hearted. But I nearly missed it, missed seeing his goodness. I was looking the other way, looking up to the people At the top, envying the wicked who have it made, Who have nothing to worry about, not a care in the whole wide world.
Psalms 73:3-4 King James Version (KJV)
For I was envious at the foolish, When I saw the prosperity of the wicked. For there are no bands in their death: But their strength is firm.

Psalms 73:3-5 The Passion Translation (TPT)
I was stumbling over what I saw the wicked doing. For when I saw the boasters with such wealth and prosperity, I became jealous over their smug security. Indulging in whatever they wanted, going where they wanted, doing what they wanted, and with no care in the world, no pain, no problems—they seemed to have it made. They lived as though life would never end.
