Job 12:6, Psa 17:10, 73:3-12, Jer 12:1-3, Hab 1:15-16 | ESV | STEP | The tents of robbers are at peace, and those who provoke God are secure , who bring their god in their hand .

Job 12:6

6 ^aThe tents of robbers are at peace,
and those who provoke God are secure,
who bring their god in their hand. ^{▼▼The meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain}

Psalms 17:10

10 ^cThey close their hearts to pity;
with their mouths they ^dspeak arrogantly.

Psalms 73:3-12

3 ^eFor I was ^fenvious of the arrogant
when I saw the ^gprosperity of the wicked.
4 For they have no pangs until death;
their bodies are fat and sleek.
5 They are not in trouble as others are;
they are not ^hstricken like the rest of mankind.
6 Therefore pride is ⁱtheir necklace;
violence covers them as ^ja garment.
7 Their ^keyes swell out through fatness;
their hearts overflow with follies.
8 They scoff and ^lspeak with malice;
loftily they threaten oppression.
9 They set their mouths against the heavens,
and their tongue struts through the earth.
10 Therefore his people turn back to them,
and find ^mno fault in them. ^{▼▼Probable reading; Hebrew the waters of a full cup are drained by them}
11 And they say, ^o“How can God know?
Is there knowledge in the Most High?”
12 Behold, these are the wicked;
always at ease, they ^pincrease in riches.

Jeremiah 12:1-3

Jeremiah’s Complaint

1 ^qRighteous are you, O Lord,
when I complain to you;
yet I would plead my case before you.
^rWhy does the way of the wicked prosper?
Why do all ^swho are treacherous thrive?
2 You plant them, and they take root;
they grow and produce fruit;
^tyou are near in their mouth
and far from their heart.
3 ^uBut you, O Lord, know me;
^vyou see me, and test my heart toward you.
^wPull them out like sheep for the slaughter,
and set them apart for ^xthe day of slaughter.

Habakkuk 1:15-16

15 ^yHe ^{▼▼That is, the wicked foe} brings all of them up ^aawith a hook;
he drags them out with his net;
he gathers them in his dragnet;
so he rejoices and is glad.
16 ^abTherefore he sacrifices to his net
and makes offerings to his dragnet;
for by them he lives in luxury, ^{▼▼Hebrew his portion is fat}
and his food is rich.
