Thus my soul was grieved, and I was pierced in my heart.
Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not yourself because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who brings wicked devices to pass.
His archers surround me, he slashes my kidneys asunder, and does not spare; he pours out my gall upon the ground.
He has caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my heart.
For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
[A Psalm of David.] Fret not yourself because of evildoers, neither be you envious of the workers of iniquity.
