Here is what sinful people are like. They don’t have a care in the world. They keep getting richer and richer.

看哪，这就是恶人；他们既是常享安逸，财宝便加增。

盍看彼群小。嶄然露頭角。

This is what the wicked are like— always free of care, they go on amassing wealth.

Behold, these are the wicked; always at ease, they increase in riches.

Look at these wicked people— enjoying a life of ease while their riches multiply.

Look at them— the wicked! They are always at ease, and they increase their wealth.

Behold, these are the wicked; And always at ease, they have increased in wealth.

Behold, these are the ungodly, Who are always at ease; They increase in riches.

Behold, these are the wicked; And, being alway at ease, they increase in riches.

Take a good look! This is what the wicked are like, those who always have it so easy and get richer and richer.

Behold, these are the wicked. Being always at ease, they increase in riches.

“ Just look at this fellow! He didn’t depend on God for his safety. He put his trust in all his wealth. He grew strong by destroying others!”

They trust in their wealth. They brag about how rich they are.

You are like a trader who uses dishonest scales. You love to cheat others.People of Ephraim, you brag,“ We are very rich. We’ve become wealthy. And no one can prove we sinned to gain all this wealth.”

You rich people, listen to me. Cry and weep, because you will soon be suffering.Your riches have rotted. Moths have eaten your clothes.Your gold and silver have lost their brightness. Their dullness will be a witness against you. Your wanting more and more will eat your body like fire. You have stored up riches in these last days.

I saw a mean and sinful person. He was doing well, like a green tree in its own land.

“ Once there was a rich man. He was dressed in purple cloth and fine linen. He lived an easy life every day.

Don’t trust in money you have taken from others. Don’t put false hope in things you have stolen. Even if your riches grow, don’t put your trust in them.

Lord, when I bring a matter to you, you always do what is right. But now I would like to speak with you about whether you are being fair. Why are sinful people successful? Why do those who can’t be trusted have an easy life?You have planted them. Their roots are deep in the ground. They grow and produce fruit. They honor you by what they say. But their hearts are far away from you.

They will eat up your crops and your food. They will strike down your sons and daughters. They will kill your sheep and cattle. They will destroy your vines and fig trees. You trust in your cities that have high walls around them. But the people in them will be killed by swords.

They have grown fat and heavy. There is no limit to the evil things they do. In court they do not seek justice. They don’t protect the rights of children whose fathers have died. They do not stand up for poor people.

Lord, by your power save me from people like that. They belong to this world. They get their reward in this life. May what you have stored up for evil people fill their bellies. May their children’s stomachs be filled with it. And may there even be leftovers for their little ones.
