1 Certainly, O Lord, you are just. But if I may contend with you, while still speaking what is just to you: Why does the way of the impious prosper? Why is it well with all those who transgress and act unfairly?

2 You planted them, and they took root. They are prospering and bearing fruit. You are near to their mouths, but far from their hearts.
