"Therefore pride is like a chain around their neck. Violence covers them like a garment."
— Psalms 73:6, World English Bible
“Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.”
“Therefore pride is as a chain about their neck; Violence covereth them as a garment. ”
“Arrogance is their necklace, and violence covers them like clothing.”
“They have cut down at once the gates thereof, with axe and hatchet they have brought it down.”
“For this reason pride is round them like a chain; they are clothed with violent behaviour as with a robe.”
“Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.”
For I was envious of the arrogant, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
For there are no struggles in their death, but their strength is firm.
They are free from burdens of men, neither are they plagued like other men.
Therefore pride is like a chain around their neck. Violence covers them like a garment.
Their eyes bulge with fat. Their minds pass the limits of conceit.
They scoff and speak with malice. In arrogance, they threaten oppression.
They have set their mouth in the heavens. Their tongue walks through the earth.
