For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
Psalm 73:3
"Verse 3. For I was envious at the foolish. "The foolish" is the generic title of all the wicked: they are beyond all others fools, and he must be a fool who envies fools.
When I saw the prosperity of the wicked. His eye was fixed too much on one thing; he saw their present, and forgot their future, saw their outward display, and overlooked their soul's discomfort."
Charles Spurgeon
