When my heart was grieved and my spirit embittered,
his archers surround me. Without pity, he pierces my kidneys and spills my gall on the ground.
Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong;
Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes.
For I envied the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
He pierced my heart with arrows from his quiver.
